😱 7 Incredibly Dangerous Toys That Actually Killed People
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 сен 2024
- Toys can be very dangerous in the wrong hands, especially those of a child --no matter how simple or harmless the object may appear. Today we are taking a look at several toys that sadly have actually taken the lives of a few children and adults in the past. Let me know in the comments down below if you have ever played with any of these toys before OR if you've had a close call with a few others?

Did you ever have any of these toys??
I collected the BK pokemon ones 3 times. I loved those.
No
Yeah, my grandma called up worried about the pokeballs. "You need to get rid of them, they will kill you." "Grandma, I'm 11 and I'm not stupid enough to try to eat the poke balls."
Edit : Random comment but my mom brought all my toys when she moved. I am now in possession of my old Jurassic Park T Rex and my cat hates it. He stares at it with a death stare. I even walked in on him attacking the T Rex. He has a new enemy.
I had the laser tag stuff, lots of fun I had forgotten that until I saw you're video! 🦖
I use to have one of those plastic Pokeball toys and Shelder was the Pokemon inside. I also had one of the ones with a golden card and I had lazer tag stuff but not like the ones in the video.
Alternate title, "Idiot parents whom let their kids be injured or killed by toys"
Most of these are the parents faults, you can go on and on just about anything that can harm or kill a child,it's up to the adults to make sure this doesn't happen.
Me and my brother never got hurt/killed by toys as kids, and we *intentionally* hit each other with 'em, *while* our parents were right there! Even the missile launchers that came with action figures and on vehicles barely fazed us. 😀
Kids: shove every toys they see into their mouth
People: that toy is dangerous
The kid who wanted to pretend his mouth was a "Cave" i call bullshit and he was deliberately trying to shoot it in his mouth on a dare or just cause he was an idiot.
how about aqua dots?
And the most-feared one of them all, *the plastic bag.*
Yep, they have killed far more kids and pets than all toys put together...
My family had Jarks. No one died... but every now and then, people would yell, "Run for cover!"
Yeah it's up to the parents to watch their children
Finally, the uplifting video I've been looking for!
I still have some of those Burger King Pokeballs floating around in the basement. We didn't throw them out, because we were all old enough to know not to suffocate ourselves with them.
I had Yard Darts in the 80's, and the Battlestar toys. I still have some of my Lazer Tag stuff with the black pistol..
Cool 😌
I had magnetix, and never once did I thought about swallowing it...
So these kids and young adults rewarded the Darwing Awards...
Darwin.
@@dubuyajay9964 I know, I just did it because its annoying people
These are from the "Natural Selection" toy line.
My dad found a box of lawn darts a few years ago. It's an alright backyard game; most of the fun is just the novelty that you're playing something banned for being "so dangerous." As long as you don't throw them at anyone, it's completely safe.
The pokeballs were not meant for babies nor toddlers.
I like how much i learn with those videos and the way you narrate them it helps a lot because you explain very good and a way very easy to understand
I survived yard darts, and I still have my Cylon Raider complete with missiles and the Cylon pilot on my shelf.
there's collector toys these days that killed. when they look at the price tag...
Wouldn't it just be "13 month-old" instead of "13 month-year-old?"
She does it 3 times in this video. Hilarious.
Nice video... Yes, I had a couple of those. When I was real young, we played Jarts in the backyard. When I was a little older, I had an original Lazer Tag game. I survived the 70s-80s.
I Used to Play With JARTS at my Uncle's house and I Never Had a Problem with them, You Just Move out of the way before they are tossed. Also Had All The Battlestar Galactica Missile Firing Vehicles.
Makes you wonder how Lego is still around
Yeah..you step on a few at night barefoot...painfull..recall them
I had the Colonial Viper as a kid. It had the firing missile. I can't remember if my family had Jarts, but I do remember playing with Jarts.
You had to make the distinction between Jarts and sharts😂😂
I had Jarts back in the mid 80's. Me and my brother ignored the ring target and threw them strait up in the air, then we would run in a circle with our hands over our heads. The point of our modified game was to not get hit. We had a few very close calls and Dad-O threw them in the trash. I miss the 80's.
Ahhh yes --Jarts. We had 2 sets so more could play. Thanks Laura for another interesting, and introspective, trip down memory lane. Definitely LEGENDARY.
Fun Fact At first lawn darts were not banned 100%, a loophole allowed for there sale if they were packaged with other out door games, like Badminton. I believe that loop hole has since been closed.
The first item, Jarts, man, had a hard time watching through that one. You know it's not going to end well.😱 And it was only #7!! 😲😱
My brother and I had some of the pokemon toys from Burger King. I even had the poster showing all the toys on it hanging in my room for years.
**eyes collection nervously**
1:12 Jarts have to be on this list, right?
1:13 Indeed
Those Burger King pokeballs really killed kids? Those have got to be one of my favorite things promos. I had one of the gold cards, man were those the good days.
It is a miracle any of us made it out of the 70's alive. Ahh, memories.
I remember many cases of Kinder surprise suffocation in the 90s. I wonder if it's still banned in the States?
Yeah it is still banned
When I was a kid, my parents bought an old house with a big overgrown yard. When we were clearing it out, my dad hit a lawn dart with a tractor and the spike pierced the blade deck, jamming the blades and shredding the belt.
Good times.
I played with Jarts when I was a kid and own and new old stock set today. Never hurt myself or anyone because Im not dumb lol.
I suspect that far more kids were injured by horseshoes over the years...
Then you're not using them properly !!
Alternate title: When Faulty Design And Social Darwinism Meet
My wife and I had a bunch of the Pokemon toys, that I had kept in the original, unopened packages. When we heard about the recall, I thought that would just make them more rare, and worth more! We locked them up for years. Then our teenage son, who was into pokemon, found them and opened every single one!
I feel bad for you but I laughed hard at this 😂😂😂
You sound so fancy when you say "miss-sigh-els" do you pronounce that with your pinky out!? 😃😉😘
🇬🇧👍
Great vid! I remember having toy machine guns that didn't have red painted barrels, good thing a cop never saw me playing with my toy uzi outside!
I played with Jarts as a kid. I believe I got the Pokémon toys for my daughter since that was her favorite thing growing up. Unfortunately kids will do dumb things sometimes ( referring to the older ones, 8+) As a parent, grandfather & Uncle, I do not understand how you are negligent enough to allow an infant something that they could choke or get smothered with. It shouldn't take Burger King or any other franchise to tell me how to protect my child, it really is just common sense.
I once bought a Marvel Legend figure, and realized when I got home that someone had opened the package and switched out the BAF piece.
That shit killed me.
The funny thing about the "Orange Plug on Toy Guns Law" is that the gangs then painted the barrel of their real pistols ornage while the children removed the Plugs so that their pistols looked more real ...
That description of the laser tag death is the only one I've heard that actually explain why someone would get shot for having a toy gun.
Night time, muzzle flare, black weapon. I appreciate that.
Toys have always been under the radar as to being hazrardous for choking even today they have choking parts ,it really is up to parents to determine the hazards and maybe dont play with toys around cops 😁👍🖐. Haunted toys would be interesting...Thanks for the share Laura..catch ya!!!
We called them Lawn Darts and they were crazy dangerous! Several close calls. I got the Battlestar Galactica Colonial Viper as a hand-me-down from my older brother. Never choked on the missiles but it was one of my favorite toys. Guess those other kids were more intimate with their Vipers.
I loved the opening w/ the vintage toy catalogs- awesome idea! & the clip from SNL great. Shards-O-Glass was a fun toy.
I just have to wonder how it happened exactly. I mean when I was little I got to play with lots of dangerous stuff. I never wanted to swallow any of it or throw jarts at someone. We had bb guns that are strong enough to break glass but we didn't go shooting each other although I had one friend who tried and he didn't remain a friend for long after that. Its just how in the world did all this happen and id probably be one of the first to want to see what something tasted like yet I knew it wasn't meant for eating so I didn't. It boggles my mind why some kids thought it was ok.
I used to put toys in my mouth constantly and sometimes even bit off pieces of plastic. But even then I knew not to swallow them.
I don’t wanna sound morbid but great video Laura 👍🏻
Karts - quickest way to ruin a family reunion, or auto plant picnic!
I have been building plastic kits since I was 12, using a sharp knife to cut the parts off the sprue (I went through a lot of sticking plaster as a boy), plus all the paints and glues were either toxic or inflammable - probably both. Anything can kill you if you let it. An excellent video, as always. Thank you.
Yep, exacto knives are still getting their shots at me. I had my first one at 10(56 years ago). I've accidentally sliced my wrist for ten stitches, had them twice roll off the table and plant themselves in me (left thigh, right foot) opened fingertips, cut through fingernails and nearly threatened my ability to father children. I laughed out loud every single time; it was never the exacto knife which was the cause, but always my own failure to use it safely.
Had jarts and the BG vehicle as a child. Good video. Question, though - "a 20 month year old" - is that a Canadian thing?
Yes Laura, what is a 20 month year old?
Very interesting video!!😀🎈Gracias!
Reminds me of Dinky toys modifying the James Bond DB6 model from a functional ejection seat in the car , when children were being injured in the eyes , also the Black Beauty from the green hornet was discontinued because of the missle .
Very interesting and educational video. Thanks, LL!
We had Jarts in the early 80's, I also had the Cylon Raider & the Viper launcher & Laser Tag. I'm lucky to be alive.
Jarts. Also laser tag. And yes I played it at night often. Laser tag not jarts.
8:36 I was working at a craft store in the mid 2000's and we sold these in my department. I recall hearing about the problems and seeing a warning label on the package.
i miss those lawn darts!!!! so dangerous!!!!!!!!!
We had the non-firing Battlestar Galactica Scarab. The missiles just "shot" about a centimeter forward at the end of the barrel when you pressed the button.
One of my classmates had the laser tag stuff. There was even a cartoon. Toy guns were awesome before the orange plugs. I remember searching for the non orange ones and finding them for a while in the stores. Had a few of the older capguns. I got in trouble for having a broken bb pistol at school using it as a toy. Thought it was so cool cause it was metal and everything. As a kid then you didn't even think that way. The bb pistol was missing parts to function but looked the part. I had buddies that got into a bb gun shootout with each other. Came to school with a bb stuck in his cheek and grounded by the parents forever
We had lawn Darts when I was a kid....we all lived to tell about it....
Thanks Laura. As a kid our family played horse shoes and lawn darts. Close calls but no I injuries . I’m keeping the lawn darts as my weapon of choice for the zombie apocalypse. Pokémon balls were a fav of my 3 kids. They only suffered bumps and bruises from pegging each other. All these toys seemed like a good idea at the time.🤠
Plays clip from classic SNL... a girl after my own cardio vascular system
Johnny Bag-of-Glass is the kind of toy every kid could have fun with next to the Johnny Pyro Kit lol!
Great content Miss Legends. Thank you, as I learnt a couple new things....and the more you know...
I used to have one of those mini hammocks. My brother and I would get twisted up in them all the time but never suffered any kind of strangulation. Some of these are the result of parents not watching their kids carefully. As a parent myself, I know its not easy to keep an eye on a child all the time. Its good for toy companies to have safety measures in place and to think through these potential scenarios when it comes to making kid toys. However, parents have a responsibility too.
You have a great news anchor voice! Very pleasant and soothing! Being a scientist, do you ever give lectures?
1) We had Jarts. Fun for all. Everyone loved them.
2) Had the BSG Viper and Cylon Raider. Shot those little red missiles just fine. Was never stupid enough to shoot one into my throat. I guess I had common sense. I might even still have he Cylon Raider in a box in my storage shed. lol
*Parents of that 4 year old are more to blame in my eyes. He was too young for such toys.
I owned every single one. I was tought about stupidity at a young age. Also side note Laura you sound like the announcer from watch mojo.com
Your consumer toy products videos are always really informative & well done. The subject matter of this particular video is sad & tragic but it will motivate adults to investigate the safety factor of those Birthday & Christmas gifts before purchase from now on.
🤣🤣🤣 I love that skit from SNL with Dan Aykroyd.
I remember playing with lawn darts.
We also had Creepy Crawlers which emitted toxic fumes.
Amazing video of dangerous toys out there and fantastic job Laura legends
This video was very informative I never had any of these toys when I was a kid and it's really sad
MURDER TOYS hi best friend your my favorite youtuber
That’s Legendary Laura for you .
Omg lawn darts were so awesome!
Had both the JARTS and nearly all of the Battlestar Galactica toys. Nowhere near a rocket scientist but somehow managed to survive!
Had those toy Metal Cap Guns, they looked awfully real. 💥🔫
I had lawn darts as a kid but they had plastic tips.
"Pretending his mouth was a cave". This sounds like natural selection to me lol
I still have dozens of those Burger King Pokémon Ball/toys in a tote somewhere my basement.
Jarts are awesome!! Great video Laura, sooooo do you prefer a summer wedding ? 💕 🥰
I had lawn darts as a kid. I once accidentaly threw one at my grandpas head, but he managed to catch it in the air before disaster could strike. He and grandma still allowed us to play with them afterwards though. They were kinda chill with dangerous stuff. XD
10:12 I had that exact gun, pretty sure it’s still packed in a box in the basement somewhere 😄
I remember some of these. Insane stuff!
Please make a longer version of your theme music! It’s so dang cool and a great jam!
"It's something we've all been exposed to at one time or another."
Watching our parents have sex?
Extremely bad commercials ruining your Saturday morning cartoon marathon?
Getting wedgied?
Having someone bigger than you dunk your head in the toilet & flush?
Being yelled at by your parents over something YOU thought was genius but turned out to be stone-stupid?
Cracking your head on the pew in front of you because you couldn't stay awake during church service?
Hearing about a female teacher banging one of her students & mildly wishing YOU'D had a teacher like that?
Please. Tell Me more about this event that everybody's experienced. I'm absolutely riveted!!!!
my little sister got a ninja turtle throwing star stuck up her nose once. She's fine don't worry about it. This video is pretty grim but also entertaining thanks for sharing.
Breathtaking as always Laura, i admire you and you has been an inspiration to me in the last years to overpass myself and I owe a lot to your friendship
Another "Lengenday" choice!
We had lawn darts as kids, back in the 70s. I remember just throwing them in the air. My brothers would try to throw them over the house.
I had the Battlestar Galactica ships, one had a missile that would only pop out, the other would fire.
I heard someone almost died from a Lego piece
I'll bet lego and the other plastic building bricks were involved in numerous deaths.
I had the Jarts as a kid, I remember using a elastic band to attach G.I Joes to them.
R.I.P. to all those lost lives.
And now we know why we have so many warning labels and caution toys... Thanks for another great vid Laura!🙏🤘
I have to admit though that while this is definitely dark, it’s also oddly comical. It’s terrible these things happened, but how could parents not know this could happen with toys like Jarts. Also, putting a bunch of chocking hazards in kids meals seems just plane dumb. Feels more like poor planning for kids toys and slightly oblivious parenting or adult negligence in some cases.🤷♂️
I had jarts,back in the day.
I wanted the BSG stuff so bad, considering I was about 6, I think I know why I never got these toys.
Conclusive proof that toys don't kill people, stupid kills people.
I remember the pokemon bk and seeing the magnetix commercial
I played with a set of "Jarts" in the 80's. One of them became embedded in the roof of the shed in my dad's backyard in the country, which I had to climb a ladder and remove. 🤣
We found some of the old style Jarts back in the late 80s/early 90s in the garage, and dad took them and threw them out when he saw us playing with them.
Lawn darts was AWESOME...THE THREAT OF DEATH ALWAYS MAKE PLAYING MORE FUN....
