Parents think this is funny? They area pane of glass away from Darwin Award.
People today have no concept of danger any more. Just like the idiot parents where I live who use their strollers as potential airbags when the y lean into the streets on a red light.

On the one hand you are correct, but we place our lives in things like this all the time. When you fly in a jet at 30,000 you are inches from falling 30,000 feet. When you drive your car on a 2 lane highway you are one simple little arm jerk away from a head on with a semi truck. Car doors are a lot scarier to fly open than that glass is to break.

I live in a tourist town and see that a hundred times every summer. Push the stroller out in the street to get cars to stop and let them cross. This is also a retirement town so a lot of residents are sliding into dementia too. But they still drive until something forces them to give up their licenses.
