This thing seriously ruins the fun, when you want to get the cat gun or propeller which is really good and fun to use. You can do so many stunts, but for it to be a death is annoying.
Just rework this so it just deals 50 damage to you and halves your speed for 3 seconds. Way more managable.
To avoid too much stacking, maybe set a limit on how many items you can hold (up to 5 i guess).
