beige_alert | "Bucket of death"

The TV show Smash Lab takes on the challenge of inventing safety devices that make good TV. What is good TV? Good TV involves danger, crashes, people getting hurt. Result? SAFETY FAIL! Typical projects attempt to ameliorate a very specific, unlikely hazard through the use of dangerous explosives. This is good TV but pretty much the opposite of safety. When the designer of a safety device ends up describing it as "a bucket of death" you know you've got the combination of good TV and Safety Fail!

Also, if you want to see two guys use a stun gun on each other for no good reason, you can see it on the Mythbusters web site here.
