Wait until you have a kid, the video of the Colorado St player flattening the 4 year old is stomach turning, not funny.

ok, you're right. That one is not funny, but the rest of them are gold, Jerry, gold!

What drove me crazy is the player grabs the kid, then the ref and then the father. They should have left him down until the medical staff could look at him.
Of course the father should have been paying better attention in the first place when that close to the action.

It's amazing how pliant and resilient little kids' bodies are.
Recently, my almost-7 year old lost his balance on some concrete stairs, used his 4 year old brother to try and steady himself, took him down the stairs with him, and they both came out of it with only one scratch between them.

As a father of three, I agree the football one was awful. I can't believe he wasn't seriously hurt. The breakdancing one wasn't too funny either. The baseball one was hilarious, though, possibly because it didn't hurt (much) but the mother sounds horrified, like, well, like her kid just got flattened by a college football player.

Yet she didnt exactly race to put down the camera! You never know when it might be worth $10,000.

Listen little Johnny, I know you're brain is squirting out your ears right now, but I'm looking for a chance to break the bank here - so just look at the camera and smile like it doesn't hurt, ok?
Seriously though, the last 2 were the worst. I might have to say the last one (breakdancing) one is the worst of them - simply because that kid got "backwards punted" pretty bad and flipped about like a rag doll. That couldn't have been a pretty sight.
This thread's existence is also highly ironic.

her kid just got flattened by a college football player. a MWC college football player. Honestly the kid probably had the advantage there. Notice how he broke the pass up.

I remember the football one--the player who hit the kid has a toddler at home and was horrified about what he'd done to the boy. I also think the coach ended up calling off the rest of the practice after that because it was so disturbing.
This one probably isn't as funny to parents either, but I'm surprised it wasn't on the list: | | | |
