What Is Up With All These Baby-Swinging Videos?
First, there was that fake baby-swinging video. Then there was that PSA from New Zealand that referenced it. Now, the scariest baby-swinging video of all, because it's almost certainly real. Some people secretly taped their neighbor swinging his infant grandchild in a baby-swing from a tree. Sounds normal, but the guy used an extra rope to make the swing go insanely high and herky-jerky. The only funny thing about this video is the conversation of the people making it:
Hopefully this will be viral, and a news station figures out who it is and gets child services involved. For real! (Also it's funny when the guy's phone rings and the girl says "How can you have something that annoying on you in life?") But seriously, the point is: this is fucked up.

That is definitely a baby doll in the seat. But fucked up still, on principle.

If that is the case, we should probably find some help for the old man who swings a baby doll alone in his front yard.
Score = 3
I think the baby's head moves while the phone is ringing, but it would be great and funny if it was a doll.

leave that baby alone, old man!

to quote my little cousin's reaction to this video, "that's some crazy ass white folks shit"

Why do we have to wait for that video to go viral and a news station to figure out who that guy is? Why didn't the douchebags filming this call the cops? What kind of people just sit there and giggle? I mean, yeah, the guy swinging his baby is fucked up, but so are the people who are saying "let's put this on youtube" instead of "hey, grandpa, stop swinging your goddamn baby."

i sure hope child services gets a hold of this and removes that kid.
snapping a kid's head and neck like that can seriously injure, if not kill them. the baby does not need to actually fall.

Looks like Wasilla to me. Boy, they sure do grow them stupid up there!

You people are a bunch of ninnies. That baby's having a great time and he's not in danger at all.

Ok, I don't know what the big deal is here.. My son had a similar setup, with a seatbelt and safety line setup and it is still one everyones favorite toys... when done properly this is insanely fun for everyone involved. I can't tell if this guy has a safety setup or not but I certainly don't see any "snapping a kid's head and neck like that can seriously injure, if not kill them. the baby does not need to actually fall."
Now, that's not to say that there isn't potential for him to be too rough with the child with his current rope setup, particularly with the rope entangling the childs head when slack(a simple bungee would solve that it's what we use) but you can't tell from this video if that's possible here.
Get over it folks, or, better yet, go build yourself a decent swing with GOOD ropes and safety lines, and have some fun, we sure do!
Feel free to report me to social services if you want but, when someone else tried that here we had a line of kids waiting to ride the swing within 2 hours and the ss person had a blast (we swap out the kid seat and put on a adult one) jumping off the 20' swing tower for the adults.
