basic example of foolproof is this: back to 'cassette' era... were you able to try out that the cassette lid won't close when you insert the cassette incorrectly? that's what a foolproof was like to be then. it was designed to alert someone that they are doing the procedure wrongfully. to hurl means to vomit (used as slang) - to throw in / up. "I think I gotta go hurl." :)

Hurl = throw. A drunk man may hurl himself in all directions. Foolproof = can't be affected by tricks. (to fool = 骗) (waterproof = can't be affected by water) If a plan is foolproof, then it will be easy to execute, because no one can stop it. That is where the "easy" comes from.

Hurl means to throw something violently. In slang, it means to vomit. Foolproof means something that can't go wrong or fail.
