Inside NYC's Riskiest Playground Where Parents Aren't Allowed Inside | NBC News
Is it weird that I want to play in this? I'm 20 years old
I feel you fam, I would if I could (youth, a valuable thing)
I'm a teen but I'd love to join in on this. I could finally build a fort.
Me too
No, not at all. That’s the point, cause if these awesome kinds of playgrounds are making 20yo adults want to play in them that goes to show that kids will want to play in them wayyy more than a regular playground.

Minecraft survival is the most risky playground
2b2t agrees
Would man have landed on another planet if they didn’t take risks
The moon is not a planet.
@@liberalbias4462 random but ok
@Jai 0 man never landed on mars.
Are you forgetting the countless astromomists, physicists, and other scientists trying to make it as safe as possilbe
Khalid Suleman Of course they’re a part of it, but even so, there’s plenty of risks, even if it’s a bit safer than it might have been.
Im 12 and i have made 11 fires at the park
*secretlly*
same just look in the trash and you might find a lighter
That's it?
@i don’t know what to do here why not
Tf
Just in case anyone is wondering, they allow 5-18 year olds to enter the adventure playground. (I read that from a review about the playground)
Oh so no kids below 5
Ohhhhhhh nice but I live across the country
Guess I’m not going to be Able to go there
this place was awesome, we built a castle, and I learned tons of creative curses, I miss those days.
Being a kid, you get to have fun in hammering a nail into wood for no particular reason.
Yeah this video made it look like slavery. Watch Vox's video.
I’m a nyc kid, I loved this playground!
Is there an age limit to this, like I am really interested in this and it sounds great, but what if there's a four year old kid who got hold of a saw and then he starts swinging it around the other children like a sword, pretending he's a pirate or a knight?
nah its more of an anarchy thing also other kids would probably run and I doubt the kids would be able to swing it enough to do any damage
Yes, what if a sociopathic kid gets inside and with no parent supervision "oops, I'm sorry I hurt another child". I would be to scared to try this.
@@NancyJGH you’re part of the issue
I have a rough tuff 5 year old so nope we gonna wait another year …my 17 month old would definitely saw something
Boss figjt
I hope these still exist when I have kids.
U are a good parent if u bring ur kids to these kinds of playgrounds
*kid falls from swing*
We need more of these
0:29 the woman on the left looks extremely American. You really could not find her anywhere else
True
How so?
Schools really look at high monkey bars and go "What if a kid falls off? We need to make them lower" and defeat the entire point of *Monkey* bars. No wonder kids like going to adventure playsets.
For realm i was in extend-a-care and we couldn't do anything. Monkey bars and sharks and minos are "dangerous."
beautiful and natural. just the right amount of stimulation.
They make it seem like kids can do this thing called 'life' on their own.
chitowncarm they could be prepared
How do you think you're here? Were you born an adult? Dimwit.
@@Approximation r/woooosh
I actually think this might be fun!
No teaches them risk
Id say, if more generations grew up in these parks, we would learn faster, (like building
It would basically be training in a miniature version of the field
I like the concept
I would play there. I'm 23, but still very much a kid inside. Heck, I still watch Avatar: The Last Airbender, Kim Possible, Code Lyoko, and My Little Pony.
@Eddy Shee Exactly.
I think it teaches a good lesson but I don’t agree with the no parents inside thing I think the parents should come in but not interfere
that won't do any better
Back in the olden days, children would play with hammers and nails to build playgrounds in bombing sites.
Everyone gansta till the neighborhood Graysen decides to start throwing hammers at people.
The Singaporean in me got anxious looking at this. Over here we’ll not let kids play in the dirt. Everything has to be meticulously assessed before engagement. It’s what I was taught growing up.
Sounds great, but not sure about that saw though...sigh
Numbuh 2 would be proud
yes please
Just imagine the insurance cost of this playground...that’s a lot scarier than letting kids swinging with saws
Do they make one for adults 🥺
I remember smashing a hammer in to my head
Owch
**Squishy kid head reinflates**
I want to visit this place, But i think i'm not a kid anymore :(
I'm 19 and I wanna go lol
Be under 18 and u good
That's nuts! No parental supervision? Waivers signed? Well it's creative!
Wendy Alexander The way it used to be
Unless your whole worldview is wracked with fear, hatred, and suspicion, it's going to work just fine. If not, keep yourself and your kids away.
Absolutely. If a child shows violent intent, then there should be an exclusion policy. Otherwise, children cannot learn to function as independent and responsible adults without some childhood independence. If you disagree, don't take you kids here.
It is not made super clear in this video, probably for shock value: Parents aren't allowed, because they would interfere too much. However, these adventure playgrounds (this is not a new thing BTW, started in Britain during the war) are staffed by trained play workers. They are trained to let the children explore and learn experientially, while helping them when they need it. There is a lot of research regarding "risky play" and these playgrounds meet children's needs for that - Risky play is a normal and essential part of child development, and if they don't do it when they are young, they will do it eventually - when the risks are greater. Injuries in these playgrounds tend to be less frequent and less serious than in traditional playgrounds (which are also infrequent and generally minor).
The more dangerous it is, the more carefull the kids are. Todays "safe" playgrounds are boring and many kids get clumsy
This is in Governor’s Island!! Love this place(:
This is more of a florida thing. Not NY
jorge9142011 I’m born in Miami nobody cares I don’t love you 😍 nobody loves you Florida is the 90s party 🎈 statehood Miami Vice City 🌃 Orlando now adding new adult rides at icon park international drive since 2016 Party 🎈 like it’s 1979 with Lindsey Lohan the parent trap Miami is a very impatient city 🌃 fact Disney spring used to be part of the old pleasure island 🌴 adult family entertainment with the first wreck it Ralph movie 🍿 and again if y’all fast forward 6 years later and again it’s been doubled in the Disney springs
I think they should were gloves when cutting stuff but other than that the kids actually seem really responsible and they're having fun and getting dirty. There should be more of this
I wish I could do this in London
Risk is not a hazard , it's like climbing a tree.
Said Squirrelman... lol xD
My kid would turn all that into weapons xD
Ye what if a kid cuts he's hand with a sword or hits his finger with the hammer then the thur has to pay
I would think they only had these in Russia
Guy does Random things is it Russia a whole adventure playground jk
I just turned 20 but I would love to play
who's that scary man at the end of the video? Yikes!
Where is it tho??
New York city
My son is obsessed with the hammer
It reminds me when i was a kid
i would have loved this when i was a kid. i would love this even now hah!..
Looks at my school play ground that doesn’t allow you do anything
Looks at this I want this
Yeah my playground is just a Swing and Slide
wow thats cool
Love this but I’d have to step in to show those kids how to swing a hammer like they mean it.
No! Electronic Devices Allowed!.
This is like garrys mod
no
No it’s not
I would make a car
I can imagine a hunger game played there
where's the diversity?...that is NYC right?
Why do you care about that?
It’s like main event entertainment center arcade except no parents allowed on pleasure island 🌴 Pinocchio 🤥 bad kids turning onto jack🤬🤬🤬 in the end the salt mines are waiting in Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 including riding the stratosphere Las Vegas 1990 to the years of the 2020 election 🗳 And donkeys have to work in the salt mines in Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 main event entertainment center arcade into the Disney villains films unsupervised I’ve seen the movie Pinocchio 🤥 as an random 90s kid 🧒 I’d could dig it
I so want to be there right now than anywhere at my playground but I doubt that playground or any playground like that is near me sadly!!🥲
