    i agree with everyone else..its not the wii's fault..albeit easier to blame the wii vs blaming yourself...if it makes u feel better u can blame the wii :)

    I think there's 100's of videos and reports online of people doing bodily harm to themselves while playing their Wii's.

    Come to think of it, some company could come out w/ an 'adult' Wii game that would really take video games to the next level. Rockstar Games, get on it. And then Congress would go ape****.

    I'll stick to my NES power glove.

    Doesn't a large graphic appear before you play any game that warns you to use the wrist strap and to make sure you have enough room around you to move?

    Unless its a misshap inolving the old wrist strap, not the Wii's fault. And even then, you must be swinging it pretty damn hard, too hard. I honestly don't see how you could be swinging so hard (and have such a lapse in judgement to forget you're holding it) that would cause it to not only slip out of your hands, but slip out with enough force to break the wrist strap AND break the tv or other things.

    I don't think the Wii is supposed to know you have a large glass light/fan on your ceiling, nor that you decided it was a good idea to swing your arms underneath it.

    That website is awesome. Maybe Nintendo created a product that is too fun and engaging. A victim of their own success. :D

    The Wii is great, now whenever I hit my lover, I can go to the hospital and say she got accidentally hit in the face while playing with the Wii. The old excuses of falling down the stairs or walking into a door never worked that well anyway.

    No way it can be real; how could a blunt object get lodged into a guy's head like that? And there's no blood or anything. I would imagine it'd bounce off the guys head.

    Maybe this is an experiement for Mythbusters...a whole show dedicated to Wii related catastrophes.

    I'm sure it was just a spoof to make fun of the WII....either way it was funny to watch...kind of saw it coming.
