Design is meant to eliminate problems. To make our lives easier. However, that's not always the case. Even though safety should be a key component when making any type of product, sometimes it falls out of the manufacturing equation and the consumer gets a hazard instead. And something to submit to the subreddit r/DangerousDesigns.

Created in 2014, this online community now has over 140K members, constantly sharing pics of exactly what its name suggests. Whether it's a questionable architectural solution or misleading packaging, over the years they've amassed quite the collection! Continue scrolling and check out some of the most popular posts on the subreddit.

1. Shouldn't have used fiberglass filler, and 2. State on the label WHY you shouldn't remove the cover.

One of the subreddit's moderators told Bored Panda they would describe it as "light-hearted."

"Dangerous staircase designs are by far our biggest collection of content, so much so that I've had to make a rule so they can only be posted once per week," the person who chose to remain anonymous said.

"Being a non-specific image subreddit, I wouldn't say there's much of a 'community' in the traditional sense," they explained. "However, there are plenty of users who are dedicated to helping me and the other mods manage this subreddit and keep it of a higher quality than most subreddits with over 100K subscribers."

Guess It’s Back To Good Ol’ Drunk Driving

Guess It’s Back To Good Ol’ Drunk Driving

mckenziedenisee Report

According to the law firm Carr & Carr, many products can be dangerous if the consumers dismiss their warnings and use the items incorrectly. Just consider the cleaning products available at your grocery store or the power tools you use for lawn maintenance.

"[But] when it comes to product liability lawsuits in which consumers seek compensation for harm caused by a particular product, one of the key factors is proving whether the product in question is unreasonably dangerous," Carr & Carr write on their website.

ADVERTISEMENT

"Since there's no way to anticipate every way in which a consumer might interact with a product, it’s impossible to design and manufacture a product that is entirely free from risk. However, consumers have a right to expect that a given product is safe when used as directed for its intended purpose," Carr & Carr explain.

May Have Been Posted Before But This Is Pure Insanity

May Have Been Posted Before But This Is Pure Insanity

Timmymac1000 Report

An unreasonably dangerous product is one that poses greater risks than an ordinary user might reasonably expect when using the product as intended. "This definition makes a distinction between products that are dangerous—such as drain cleaners or chainsaws—and those that pose threats beyond their intended purpose."

"In general, drain cleaners and chainsaws are not unreasonably dangerous because most come with detailed instructions for the proper use and warnings about their risks. The unreasonable danger in product liability cases is characterized by a flaw in the product's design, manufacture or marketing," Carr & Carr note.

So which of these pictures do you think feature unreasonably dangerous designs? Upvote them and let's see!

Safer and more educational because they learn their capabilities and limits. That's why German playgrounds are way more "dangerous" then US ones.

Same here, except instead of brick it was asphalt. Oh, and somebody got hurt almost every day. Skinned knees and skinned elbows were so commonplace some kids didn't even get it cleaned up. If you were still bleeding when recess was over maybe you'd go to the nurse; maybe you'd hold a Kleenex on it for a while. While I was there, at least four kids fell off the high monkey bars and were carted off in an ambulance, to come back a week later with stitches or crutches and a cast. One kid never did come back. The teacher said he moved...

We had a park that was the place to be back in the 80’s called caber park, this thing was the biggest unsafe tree house you’d ever seen.I never had an accident but it wasn’t built under any strict codes that’s for sure. I don’t care, I’m glad to have been a part of growing up in that era. Life was exactly what it was supposed to be for kids fun, dangerous and dirty. Your parents wouldn’t worry if they didn’t se u all day, just be home by 5pm for dinner.

Nowadays, most of our kids are such couch potatoes, sitting glued to a screen playing a video game, that for them to play on something like this... it would very likely be disastrous!

My local park in the 80's had a climbing frame that looked like a micro-rollercoaster; half yellow, half blue, it was one continuous length of 'ladder' that looped and curled and eventually joined up with itself again. I think I saw them in other places too (UK this is). There were ample opportunities to maim or kill yourself on one of those babies!

You may not see the "pussy ass kids" because they are busy healing in a hospital somewhere after falling off the 17 foot monkey bar contraption. This is a classic example of survivors bias...the only kids you see are the ones that are unhurt and happily playing. You may not realize that 3 kids had already broken their necks the month earlier. Were the kids that were actually harmed on this thing the "pussy ass" ones? Were they not "bad ass" enough? When you know better, you do better...we have simply done better by our kids by making their play equipment safer, nothing "pussy" about it.
