Sorry but there's nothing funny about the 14 year old kid, especially since he was following instructions found online. That's just extremely worrying, as I'm sure there is a plethora of misinformation online, and probably alot that could be harmful. |

I'm not laughing at the death but at the absurdity of these things. Of course it's funny. Imagine that crazy dude going back and forth over a freaking rocket, that's hilarious - it could be straight from a movie. It's not worrying that the internet says to dump a power supply in water, it's worrying that someone would be dumb enough to do it. People should learn that you shouldn't play engineer if you don't know what the hell you're doing. Especially if you have a fartbrain anyway. That's why there's customer support, to protect you from your own stupidity. |

I'll have to agree. Since he wasn't seriously injured I think he actaully got a good lesson in the art of common sense. Something that seems to go unpracticed lately. |

It would be the philosophy that has parents restricting their kids from the types of sites they go to. I would imagine that that kid wanted to see if he could do it himself (experimentation) and figured that if he wrapped it up well enough in plastic that it could work. The theory is sound, but "theory" doesn't always work for a 14 year-old. |

I dunno about you, but one of the first things I ever learned was electricity + water = bad. Yes, this has to do with good parenting, but restricting the internet is not good parenting. For one, how would they be able to specifically restrict sites like that (there is no "restrict all retarded sites" filter) without restricting a ton of more very helpful things. The good parenting here is about giving their son some common fucking sense. Lack of education is not solved by keeping their kid from going on the internet. If a kid doesn't know not to put plugged in appliances in a bucket of water by age 14, restricting the internet is not going to help him from being retarded. Obviously his parents did something wrong (or probably didn't do anything at all). |

Everyone knows what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, however, few are familiar with the North Vegas slogan: What happens in North Vegas will haunt your dreams forever.
I didn't mean "restrict" internet sites, but rather have an idea of what their kids are doing. You don't have play watchdog, but just see what they're doing from time to time (such as not talking with men twice your age and agreeing to meet up with them... unless you're 48, which in that case it's a fairly safe bed that they're not going to jump you, but who knows?). |
