This is a video of a stunt in a playground where two girls were thrown from a roundabout that was powered by a moped.  Police here are investigating this footage after they were alerted from people who had seen the footage on a US website.  Considering the girls look to be only about 12/13 it is pretty bad.  The roundabout looks to reach about 20mph and then the girls are thrown off.  Not nice.  It isn't nice so be warned before you look.

Dreadful. It worries me when there's footage like this that doesn't show how the victims fared in the end. You know they stopped the camera for a reason.

Probably seemed like a good idea at the time.

Correction.  Teenagers. But that could be synonymous.

Maybe this will stop some other bright sparks from trying it

Not unless they outlaw teenagers.

Hmm, I do the girls were not injured. As a teenager, I did some pretty silly things for kicks. These things usually involved going fast down hills on inferior equipment without any safety equipment whatsoever. Thankfully, I was never badly hurt despite my stupidity. Teenagers will always want to do silly things. Hopefully video footage such as this will ensure they think things through prior to such stunts.

Yeah, right. We never did.
