The product, in the report: Swim Ways Toypedo Original http://www.swimways.com/toypedo-original-p-52.aspx Model: Toypedo Original
I have noticed these Toypedos being thrown into swimming pools and striking people. They are very hard and travel at a high velocity. They are projectiles that do cause injury when misused. I know of one incident where a child (my daughter) received a bruise to her head because she was swimming and a kid threw it at her and it hit her in the head. The bump is still present one year and a half after impact. If it was an inch lower she would have lost her eye. I am concerned that they will cause eye injury because they come at you so fast and they are very heavy and hard. In my observation of these toys they have a high propensity to be misused by kids and they are indeed torpedoes that impact unsuspecting swimmers and do cause injury when misused.
