Garda Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 i so don't believe this. You won't read anything more random all day Some guy put a baby in a tumble dryer, for "a fun time" http://news.ninemsn.com.au/article.aspx?id=121004 Quote
Guest Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 i so don't believe this. Seeing as the story is coming from one of the media sources in austrailia i would say it is true. Quote
Emilml Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 What a f****** Moron! Those things get realy hot, some i know have one that goes up to 95 degrees celsius Quote
revolations2525 Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 wow, personally, the guy should get the crap beat out of him, but he might get that from the people at the jail. /me blinks like "WTF??" Quote
Wallis Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 ...wow. I remember i used to hide in the dryer when i played hide and go seek with my siblings...they never found me. Of course i never completly closed the door, because that would just be freaky. For some reason I think some people treat babies like dolls, or pets, rather than actual human beings. Quote
PoyBoy Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 Ya. Its also a shame that people do this especially since babies are fragile to begin with. I would think it would be completely opposite. Treat babies fragile, and throw us around. Quote

Treat babies fragile, and throw us around. Are you suggesting that i throw YOU in a dryer ...if you insist, it doesn't really bother me Quote
Technologique Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 Ya. Its also a shame that people do this especially since babies are fragile to begin with. I would think it would be completely opposite. Treat babies fragile, and throw us around. Technically the bones in a human baby are more supple, and resistant to breaking than the bones in a full grown adult, which is why babies can constantly fall over without damaging themselves. Not that this has anything to do with some dumb asshole sticking a baby in a tumble dryer... He should know that they're only for cats. Quote
PoyBoy Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 nah, just that it probably wouldnt kill me, like it would a baby, seeing as its slightly easier for me to escape. Quote
armadaender Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 It's a sad thing that these events actually occur in the world. Wait, this is my 666th post.... woah, kinda weird. My 666th post being in response to an evil man putting his kid in a dryer. Quote
leetabix Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 Just out of interest, does anyone know if all models have to have a lever on the inside, or similar, to facilitate the opening of the door in case someone's stuck inside? Obviously this wouldn't help a baby, but would help someone old enough to know about its function. Quote
Guest Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 it would be hard to open the door while the thing is turnt on, it would be easyer to just kick it open Quote
VaKo Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 Given the size of most tumble driers I doubt it. I'm 6'2" so without some major work with a hacksaw, theres no way i'd fit in one. Quote

Now there's a candidate for a new half-assed hack-'Man-sized tumble drier.' I was thinking more along the lines of someone younger, a small child perhaps. Although I guess the best answer is just to keep the washing machine in a locked room, and on a high shelf, that makes the chance of it being used as a den minimal. I can't help but sense something surreal about the above paragraph. Quote

Obviously this wouldn't help a baby, but would help someone old enough to know about its function. if you're a grown adult and you find yourself in a tumble dryer, and in immediate danger, do you really think that you would be intelligent enough of a human being to be able to operate a lever. Seriously, who, except for a baby who can't help it, would find themselves in a dryer. :P Quote

Sparda Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 Tumble Dryer Madness! VaKo, man of England, yesturday put his head in a tumble dryer says: "I thought it would fit". :D Quote
anyedie Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 when i was like 8 i almost put my cat in e dryer before i relized that it was dumb... this guy has no excuse. Quote
cooper Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 Wasn't this something kids used to do at those washing places (don't know the word. Throw in a nickel and the thing tumbles your laundry for a minute)? Where the manager of the place would have to replace the motor of the driers because they'd be worn out. Turned out some kids put themselves in there for a nice, cheap friday-night buzz or whatever. I think there was a CSI episode about a kid dying whilst doing this too. Quote
