Origin[]
Monty Python and the Holy Grail is one of several films made by Monty Python. The films tells the story of the Arthurian Legend with a twist of comedy. One of the most striking feature of the films is the use of coconut shells to mimic the sound of a horse.
Effect[]
When the coconut shells are clapped together the sound will allow the user to walk great distances without needing to rest. The clapping must be continued throughout to continue the effect. If it is stopped suddenly the effect will wear off.
Collection[]
A simple solo mission, Pete took delight in collecting these from a Classic Comedy Cavalcade auction in Montana. He even suggested walking back to South Dakota, just to check them out.
