| Nice project, but am I the only one who thinks it's a bit cynical to first advertise it as a "death trap" and then show kids riding it? Which means you either admit that the title is complete and utter clickbait, or you demonstrate an alarming lack of concern for the well-being of children. |

| You’re not supposed to take that use of that expression literally, but if someone gets hurt for any reason, the lawyers will. |

| The two aren't really mutually exclusive... I'm going to say, as a child of the '70s, that with proper parental supervision children can survive their parent's "alarming lack of concern for the well-being of children". |
