I swear to God I saw a kid there playing with a crash helmet on.
If I managed to survive my childhood, anyone can. It's getting to be a bit ridiculous on how over-protective we've gotten around kids.

It is, of course, also possible to be underprotective. I got to play with guns as a kid. The day I figured out how to use a bullet (actually, shot rather than a bullet) to detonate a small container of gunpowder was a lot of fun!
Anyone else have favorite dangerous toys?
