...I'm standing up now. O_O

They need to test this on Mythbusters...

^^^ Agree with Jazzeh.

Just... wow. Ho-ly-crap.

Thank you, Toshiba laptops. =3

... Think bullet proof pants would stop that?

-curls up in fetal position with laptop-

... I hate you.' Curse your children. I am afraid of chairs now. 0.o

WowXD That's so terrible and yet funny at the same time...

yeeeeaaah... i'm on the couch from now on... At least the chair in my room is one of those twisty ones... i used to hate having to spin to adjust but i think i'll make do now....

from the headline i thought it was something like the post broke through the seat and impaled the kid... not shrapnel bleeding... (is it wrong to think that's a lame way to go?)

i just saw that and yet im still siting here IN one of those chairs

my im just a little lazy

Looks at chair and pets it Good chair won't explode on me right? Good chair. Pets more Yes I'll sit on the magical explody chair and not scream... Though I won't let my brother play with the up and down lever anymore...

EDIT: Jazzeh you do know you can suggest different myths for them to test right? You could easily send it in and you would be all "O_O wtf?" when it turned on and you saw the exploding chair. xD

Ugh.

Wonder what it would feel like to bits of metal thrust up your ass?

This

And this

-gets a stool-

hahahaaha i laughed while reading that...

.. holy shit im in one of those chairs right now..

.......... I'm sitting on a chair like that right now ): Ohgosh. -looks at chair suspiciously-

though I have that kind of chair, I'm not quite afraid of it... my char's a lot sturdier and safer than that cheap thing >A> and I have otherwise never heard of exploding chairs.

I agree with Morrigan Draven, he must've done something... because either that chair was really, really crappy, or this isn't the full story.

I laughed at the title, then I read the article and felt horrible. That is a really bizarre death. I'm lying on a sofa right now, so I'm not too worried about it exploding, but...I'll be sure to not mess around with adjustable swivel chairs now.

looks at own chair.. stands for 5 minutes.. then tentatively sits again

WHY did I have this read this article. Now I'm afraid of my chair. >.<

Death by chair.

fears

1. chairs
2. spiders

This thread just can't die ...

Unlike that kid.

Yay, now I'm afraid of practically everything since I've been in the current events thread xD

I am NOT sitting in one of those again. Ever. Ever. Ever.

O.O If my cat weren't on my lap and/or wouldn't kill me if I got up, I would start using my pretty little vanity stool. o3o
