Groan Tube

A Groan Tube is a toy marketed by various manufacturers which makes a distinct 'groan' sound when turned on one end.

They are especially popular with stag parties in Benidorm, Spain.

The groan tube was invented in the early 1960s by Japanese toy manufacturer Kureo. The toy was first sold as 'Magic Noise Tube" (魔法音管). Mattel was the first company to sell the product in the United States in 1973. The Jibba Jabber toy, made by Ertl, produced a similar sound.
