Kids’ Flaming Football Toy
A BALL designed to be set on fire and then kicked around has been banned.
Sheesh.. just when you think you find the perfect gift for that annoying brat next door they go a ban it
South Australian Consumer Affairs Minister Jennifer Rankine said the Fire Footbag was made from fire resistant material and was meant to be soaked in flammable liquid and ignited.
“The Fire Footbag essentially becomes a flaming missile which presents extreme safety risks for people who could quite easily be burned by the footbag once it’s been set alight,” Ms Rankine said.
“Making such a dangerous item available to children or anyone else is absurd and unacceptable.”
Heh… ya think? I hope some child didn’t have to burn to a crisp for the authorities to comprehend the danger of this bright idea
