Product liability and dangerous products

It does not matter how careful you are, or how many cases you deal with involving products and devices that go wrong, it can still happen to you! My wife bought a shiny silver stand with some little lights on it that looks similar to those that you find on a Christmas tree and while she backed me up so that I could take a photograph of my children, two of those tiny globes instantly burnt two holes through my Nike jacket. I really could not have pressed against them for more than a second or so, and yet in that time they not only burnt approximately 4 cm square holes in the material, but actually slightly burnt my back. When you start looking around your house at the children’s toys that have been manufactured in China and sprayed with who knows what paint and chemicals and the various devices, you have to know that danger lurks at every corner!
