Which generation is that, though? Like basically everybody experienced this as a kid.

Around here they started getting rid of them in the 80’s. The story I was told is that kids would play “dropsies” where you’d drop a shoe under the platen and then try to grab it on the next round. Some kids would throw it far under and the kid reaching for it could get his head caught under and it could break their neck.

That’s the gruesomest story I heard but I found many, many other ways to injure myself on these things.

Wow, that’s messed up, most what we did is just throw people off it or throw drinks at em when the thing was up to relativistic speeds.
