A dunk tank, also known as a dunking booth or dunking machine, is a common feature at Canadian and American fairs, fundraisers, and celebrations. It involves at least two participants, one of whom sits on a collapsible bench above a human-sized water tank. The other participant's objective is to throw a ball at an accompanying target, which if successfully struck, causes the seat to collapse, \"dunking\" the person into the water. People often volunteer to be dunked while fully dressed. The person throwing the ball often has to pay per throw as donation to a charitable cause or company the dunked person supports or is employed for.
