In 1980, I kept my 2-year-old at my side with a leash. I suppose that is considered abuse now.

I must say, he was very good at not getting eaten, until he was.

I have a 2 year old and use a panda harness if I can’t guarantee I’ll be able to hang onto his hand all the time.

As for the little one in the story, the inner kid in me is thinking how awesome the ride would be, the parent in me though...

First time I saw that scene I had to stop the tape in the VCR, I was laughing so hysterically!

Got a hefty dose of radiation going through that machine. Back when cameras used film, those were the reason they told you to keep your film in your carry on.

Those belts can be so dangerous. Overweight bags could have fallen on him or the “kicker” could have kicked him onto another belt. He’s lucky a fractured hand was all he suffered. Many of us dream of riding those belts - until you see them in action. Inattentive mother, problem #1.
