I don’t know if this counts but I was always disappointed that real life pea shooters and water pistols were nothing like their comic representations, that worked like machine guns and hoses respectively. I suppose the closest we ever got was the Super Soaker.
Oh, and I’ve never seen a catapult made from a Y shaped stick.
I made one of these when I was a kid using a ton of rubber bands. One of the “arms” flew off and hit me in the face. It was definitely not as fun as the cartoons advertised.

For the catapult, do you mean a slingshot?

Yes, I always called them catapults as a kid and I guess it stuck!
