It's was all fun and games until I heard about the young child being crushed being crushed has to be one of the worst ways to die I can't imagine how the parents felt and why did they have to show that picture even if it was blurred.
Me and my husband used the ones at Planet Fitness.. it felt amazing at first but at certain points and times the squeezing mechanisms started becoming a tad bit too aggresive imo😵
Once I sat on one in a shopping mall that took money for use, just to take a rest and an alarm kept sounding on it to try and make me leave. I figured that was the price to pay for sitting on their nice chair and not using it. After a few minutes though, it randomly pushed two of the center arms with rollers on them out really far into my back in a painful way. I imagine it’s to make whoever is sitting down and not listening, get up. Lol
@@emilyrandall9968 yeah I never liked the way those things compress your legs like that. Scary that it’s a machine that technically doesn’t know your pain tolerance.
@@NemoTrainz Well, that is why whenever there was one of them setup in the store I pressed the demo button or the most lightest setting. I guess there is a reason to actually do the one thing we hate. Read the manual. I feel for that family that lost the 4 year old. I wonder where the adults were when it happened? Oh and as for the chair punching you. Could you have maybe been sitting on the remote? like maybe the remote slipped between the cushion after the last person that used it.
@Shaman196 Yes it is and they need to live with that for the rest of their lives. Prayers for them & the rest of the survivng family for their tragic loss.
Imagine living alone and having one of these trap you in them and you dont have your phone nearby to contact someone. You stop showing up for work, you stop answering phone calls, you're super hungry and dehydrated... etc. That would really suck.
@@Shitsngigz I could go on but feel free to add onto it or just use your own imagination. I'd love to read, or even write a short story about something like this. I think it could be an interesting idea for one. So many possibilities you could fit into a story about it.
A couple years ago, our family dog got in our massage chair while we were eating dinner, and she was almost smothered to death she somehow survived after be trapped for a while.
You can't tell me nobody tried to turn it off to reset it , if it was that easy I'm sure the firefighters wouldve tried that before cutting it open lol

I sat in one of those one time at a furniture store for a very long time because it felt great but I woke up the next morning and every muscle in my body hurt like hell LOL. That was my 1st and last time sitting in one lol. Very sad about the little boy dying in one. That is a mothers worst nightmare.

I remember trying one at a Brookstone. It felt very nice as I was reclining back and my feet and lower legs were being hugged until it started to get a little tight. I was like "Uhh.. Ok now. Let me go!" Until finally it started to loosen.
To be fair, is it really the chairs fault? The kid had it coming. It reminds me of that one onion video where they joke about stupid kids injuring themselves in stupid ways and ruining things for others.
@@MoneyHungryRito the kid didn’t “have it coming”. it was definitely being used improperly but he didn’t have death coming for being curious around furniture.
This is why I just always stick to spa massages with a masseuse only I was never fond of using massage chairs since they weren’t even comfy for my back
I really like those chairs. I’ve had back surgery. I also have arthritis and degenerative disc disease. It feels so good to use them. You can adjust the intensity on them to suit you. I think those feel awesome. However, you have to pick the massage that feels best for you on the chair.
Same, I used to work at the mall I would use the chairs at the mall for five to 15 minutes and it really helped after a long day at work. Never had any problems with it. It could also be that some people don't actually fit in the chairs or they just have defective ones.
As I kid I was always terrified of these. Good to know my fears weren’t invalid. I always feared them because the idea of mechanical parts and metal plus human never sounded pretty or fun to me. especially such stuff massaging you.
We had one at my job. I was so excited when I finally got an opportunity to use it. But that thing really hurt. Felt like it is was digging holes in my upper back. Maybe I had the settings too high?😕
Yep! That happened to me at the local mall! I got the hell out when I felt it squeeze too tight! I have massagers at home and I know when one is defective lol
My father has one in his house. The only time i use it is when i have a Migraine and my neck is bothering me. Otherwise I do not use it anymore because the next day of a chair massage, I am extremely sore and restricted in my movements. I prefer a normal hand massage. I always turn the conpression off.
I used to think suing for reasons like this was greedy. But with the wealth hoarding in our country, extreme healthcare prices, and not being able to afford a house, it really isn’t. We praise CEOs for their wealth hoarding because they “earned it” while the worker bees work themselves to death. Suing big corporations can give you more of a cushion for future healthcare costs. Don’t hate the player. Hate the game.
I have one in my basement, it resets after 30 minutes. I don't know how people get trapped but then again, they have warning signs and statements on the dumbest things
Steven is ridiculously handsome, but that being said, I've spent tens of thousands on these for many of my homes and usually have them inspected once a month by a handyman, at least. I'm naturally paranoid, so that's just me. A relative abroad in the 1990s had one and a guest almost died playing with it, because it triggered them to have some sort of episode.

Very scary. I can’t imagine being crushed to death in these it’s very scary the feeling of being trapped

My brother had one and I made the mistake of falling asleep in it. The auto-shut off failed and 6 hour later I woke up and it was still running. Bruised my back for weeks.
I got stuck in a few one for several hours, my legs and arms were clamped in tight I couldn’t move. I still bought the chair and since then it’s been ok

This seems like a problem that could be entirely resolved with an emergency safety pin, taped to the remote.
