Скачать или смотреть Pokémon Pokéball recall PSA - Burger King (1999-00, US)

During 1999 and 2000, Burger King and the Consumer Product Safety Commission held an effort to recall plastic containers resembling Poké Balls in the United States after it was determined they presented a suffocation hazard. It was one of the largest and most expensive recalls in history. 2 deaths unfortunately occurred due to the stupidity of the parents. On December 11, 1999, a 13-month-old girl in Sonora, California suffocated on the container, and was found deceased in her playpen with half of the ball covering her nose and mouth. On December 23, an 18-month-old Kansas girl reportedly got half of the ball stuck on her nose and mouth, but her father managed to remove it before she was injured. This resulted in Burger King agreeing to a recall after no resolution had been passed between them and the Consumer Product Safety Commission. However, the CPSC told them to wait five days—December 29—to announce the recall to allow for them to get its nationwide strategy in place. Burger King agreed, but told their stores to cease distribution of the containers and a 4-month-old boy in Indianapolis, Indiana died of suffocation on January 25, 2000 in his crib. The recall teaches about the stupidity from the parents of the kids under the age of 3. This would go down in history as the one of the Top 10 largest and expensive recalls ever.
