How about the fact the thunder b clearly states 'not for indoor use"

And the host says, NOPE, I think its ok for indoor use?

Really?

Good luck with that one.

WARNING: This product produces loud noises with the use of pressurized gas. It can cause hearing damage or loss. Product should be used in an outdoor location. Use hearing protection during use. Not for indoor use. Do not hold once activated or bodily injury may result. Pull Pin and get away. Use may be restricted by local/state governments. Know the laws in your area before using Thunder B.


And the host says "no problem" all good!!

This is the same as the hosts who let guys get baked and play. Too bad the waiver written is no longer legally valid for that person and EVERYONE ELSE who signed it, as the contract was entered into by a party who was intoxicated.

Meat and potatoes here guys.

Here is a better way of looking at it.

You have eyes and ears.

The field you play at goes through great lengths to ensure you keep your eye protection on. The protection you chose to ensure you have protected yourself from being shot. There are waivers you sign. FPS limits are given and enforced with various methods all to tie into this risk.


Enter in the thunder B

Is there a briefing or enforcement on this?
Is hearing protection on field listed as mandatory?
Are the players all specifically warned they could have this go off and they need to ensure they have protected there hearing?

No
No
and....
No

So allowing a devise that says on the label can cause hearing damage and not having the controls in place to even attempt to ensure the safety of the players is not acceptable.

Simply not acceptable.
