  • Jennifer Garner is the queen of quirky Instagram videos and innovative projects.

  • Most recently, Jennifer used her free time in during pandemic to build her very own dunk tank in her backyard.


Looking for new ways to get creative with your extra free time during the COVID-19 pandemic? Jennifer Garner has a fun idea.

On Saturday, July 18, the 48-year-old actress took to Instagram to share a video of her building her very own dunk tank. In the clip, the 13 Going On 30 actress is shown sawing, spray painting, assembling, and testing her craftsmanship, all while wild west shoot-out music plays in the background. In other words, it’s another gem from Jen.

At the end of the clip, after realizing firsthand that her dunk tank actually worked, she giddily called for her kids. While the clip didn’t pan to her kiddos running over, folks in the comments were eager to share in her excitement.

“Do I count as one of your kids!!!” actress Giselle Eisenberg wrote.

“I seriously think you are the funniest and best person,” makeup artist Monika Blunder chimed in, followed by a series of hearts.

“How do you know carpentry too? Mind blown,” baker Candace Nelson, of Netflix’s Sugar Rush, commented.

And the list goes on. While some people may only have one hobby, Jen is the queen of getting crafty and sharing her wit (and handy expertise) on social media. (So, if you’re not following her already, you know what to do.)
