Which toy did you poke an eye out with as a kid? Let us know in the comments below!

The longer I watch this video, the more I'm convinced that the casualties are most often people who are not supervising their kids properly.

"I fear no man but that thing"
*Lawn Darts*
"It scares me"

I had moon shoes when I was a kid, and pretty much 80% of the time would end up falling over and hurting myself when I played with them. They mysteriously disappeared after the first few times I used them. Now starting to think the disappearance was not so mysterious.

I love how the CSI Fingerprint kit comes with yellow tape like you'd tape off the perimeter around your little sister's room while you investigate if she stole your Nintendo DS

My son had most of these toys, ironically, with NO injuries. Besides, quite a of the injuries were when parents gave kids who were too young for the toy, or the toy was used improperly. If parents used common sense, so many injuries could be avoided.

I had at least 10 Mighty Max sets when I was little and never once thought to eat them. You can make the argument that ANY toy is dangerous when given to kids who are young enough.

It's insane how many of these toys I actually had as a kid. 😁
(I absolutely loved my wood-burning kit, lol)

[missshiningbind]

I had a creepy crawlers oven when I was a Kid as well as an Easy Bake oven. However, there is a thing called Adult Supervision here where I was always accompanied by a parent growing up when I played with these toys and never got burned and what not. In reality, the kids are not to blame, it’s the parents for not watching their children.

Honorable Mention: The original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Pizza Thrower. That thing was vicious

As someone who had the original Polly pockets at the age of 8. "What?!".

What dummy is eating Polly Pockets?!

Who in their right mind ever though a mini nuclear reactor was a good idea to market to children as a *toy*

[bsgfan]

Most dangerous toy I ever owned (actually still do) was the 1999 Qui-Gon Jinn lightsaber from Episode 1. Apparently they were recalled because a production fault caused the batteries to either melt down or explode. But I was a weird kid who didn’t like my toys making noise, so I never put batteries in it. Guess my weirdness saved me 😅

“Which toy did you poke an eye out with as a kid?”

None because I had better sense than that

[staceyrox]

I feel like 98% of these are just the case of kids being way too young to have these toys. Just because they’re cool toys does not mean your kid should have them if they are way younger than the age suggestion, the warnings are for a reason!

"Moon Shoes! (Moon Shoes!) Moon Shoes! (Moon Shoes!)" 🎶


That song will FOREVER be stuck in my head!

[supertransistor]

Oh... So THIS is why so much of the toys in my childhood were replaced by phones

[Shadoboy]

Polly Pocket and Mighty Max are the kind of toys you're not supposed to give to kids young enough to be in the "I wanna shove things in my nose" age.

[spdutahraptor]

Liquid extasy??

"Hey, can i get one of those Aqua Dots??"
"For your kid??"
my kid..."

[doomynytress]

I'm surprised Sky Dancers aren't on here. Those things hurt when you couldn't figure out why they weren't flying so you had to watch it taking off and WOW it would suddenly work and take off in your face (or get the doll/mechanism tangled in your hair.)

I had the original Polly Pocket and sure, I easily lost them but I never swallowed them, even at a really young age. I loved those things! I also had the Moon Shoes (I'd bounce around the house in them for hours, they were so fun) and the 90's version of The Easy Bake Oven (which cooked the "goodies" over a light bulb...) I remember the commercials for Creepy Crawlies (and being creeped out by them) and in either my pre-teens or teens the Aqua Bubble. Never got either of those (though I was always curious about the Aqua Bubble.) I had a few Nerf Guns and a TON of toy squirt guns, and bottle rockets were a science class experiment! Lawn Darts feel so familiar but I don't think I've ever actually owned them (maybe a family member owned a ripoff at some time or another, ) and I never had a problem with hammocks as a kid. (And I had one of those little trampolines too, but quickly traded up for a 15' enclosed trampoline.)
