The 10 most dangerous play things of all time

lol see now I dont know why Horse shoes isnt in ranking w/ jarts.....yeah jarts have a pointed end but they werent made of 5 pounds of steel that you tossed in the air....
 
/\---true. Horseshoes are pretty lethal, but a jart can fly farther, faster, and harder with less effort. A horseshoe has a range of maybe ? 30yards....The jart could fly a whole football field!
 
lol i guess toy makers figured they'd create a toy that would help weed out the retards....bahaha

that game was great.
i could see someone losing an eye... the later generations had a shield to prevent the balls from leaving the table. no fun.

The one and the same. Oh how quickly the game devolves to "I'm gonna try to richochet these BB's of blindness to my little brother's face" gameplay!

The bearings just rolled down a ramp i thought. No springs or anything to shoot it out. just gravity

...And what about those airplanes on the wire lines that you swung in circles over your head. they could take a head off easily!

Even better...Estes model rockets. If not properly balanced when being assembled, all kinds of screwball antics would ensue! noting like a rocket flying over 60mph in an eratic corkscrew of death.

Estes Rockets were friggin awesome. My dad used to build those with my brother and I as projects and go out during the summer and fire them off. Good times.... until a new version that turned into a plane went about a half mile further than it should have into a major highway....


....still fun....

(and yes crossfire+ dangerous game, my brother and I used to throw the BBs at each other after we were bored with the game)
 
70% of mine ended up in trees! lol

I liked how sometimes the burning hot engines would just fall out! That's always safe!
