Most darts weigh around 25 grams, which is about as heavy as 5 U.S. nickels.

Most darts games are played at a standard distance of about 8 feet.

So if you could hold 5 nickels in your hand and toss them at least 8 feet, you can throw a dart at a dartboard! (And dispose of loose change?)

Dartboards of today's style have been in production for over 100 years, and people of all ages and backgrounds around the world have been throwing darts at targets for as long as there's been gravity.
