Isn’t it dangerous to stare at the sun?

It is, but there are ways you can safely observe. The article mentions the girl had made a ‘pinhole camera’ at school which is one of the safe ways.

Isn’t it dangerous to stare at the sun? Do British student often just stare at the sun?
You can still look at it with welding glass, special eclipse glasses or a pinhole camera. Or even just look at the funny shadows leaves form during an eclipse.
The last time a 90% eclipse hit here it was great fun to watch it with the welder's helmet on.

Yes, it most definitely is. As an amateur astronomer I’m serious ‘’nick’’, don’t ever do it. There are ways to safely observe the sun. You can go to any astronomy web-site to find out how.
