Biggest Playground Design Fails | Joe Marler's Things People Do

Playground designer Chris sits down with Joe Marler and Tom Fordyce to break down exactly what it’s like to design children’s playgrounds for a living - there’s more to it than you might think!

Chris breaks down the dumbest, most stupid, inappropriate, and downright dirty playground designs he’s EVER seen and helps the guys design their own ADULT playground, which is definitely not suitable for children. You'll see why.

Of course, the guys also don’t miss a chance to hear from an expert on what the quickest way down a slide is, how to do a full loop-the-loop on a swing, and take a moped onto a kid’s roundabout *DO NOT TRY AT HOME*.

Joe Marler’s Things People Do is a weekly podcast hosted by Joe Marler and Tom Fordyce about the weird and wonderful things that people do! Each week, Joe and Tom interview a special guest with an unusual story, career or hobby.
