No, it's not just you. This has been my protest since the beginning of this show. I was injured five years ago in a relatively common accident but I've been fighting this long to get the right medical attention and am finally turning a corner from a myriad of health complications (from something that really wasn't "that bad.").
I didn't like the show for that reason prior to my own injury and whacky journey through medical h*ll to find a real solution. I can't even bear to allow anyone in my household to watch it since then. I was NEVER the kids that laughed at the kid that tripped or spilled his/her lunch or was somehow ridiculed for no reason. It's very, very cruel.
And, pain is NOT funny, no matter how many people choose to laugh at it.

You know what I find more disturbing? The fact it seems like I see a lot of videos on this show which show children naked. Censored or not, it's disturbing. At least to me, it is. A baby with no clothes? That's okay. A 3-4 year old? Crossing the line.

I throw snowballs at babies.

Considering the videos (I assume most of them) are sent in with the permission and the hopes of wining by the people that are "hurt" in the video, then they basically give us the okay to laugh at them.

It's not funny. It's not funny to see the adults get hurt either like that lady who got set on fire on her wedding day.

Since when it it funny to see kids get hurt? Since when was it NOT funny to see kids getting hurt?
LOL, that.
Some videos DO look quite painful and make you, "Ooooooh.! Glad that wasn't me." But apparently none of them ever resulted in anybody actually being severely injured or killed, so you need have no qualms whatsoever about laughing. If the people involved can see the funny in the situation after the fact, then so can I.
In the interest of time, let's agree to disagreeeven though I'm always right.

We aren't taking medical-emergency issues here so tone it down with the baby worship.
Civility is just a warm and fuzzy name for censorship.

theres one video they show all the time where a boy and his mother (i think its his mother) are on some type of roller coaster type ride (i think the one that shoots straight up) and the kid slips out of the seat and is hanging on by the strap catching his neck and chin. the kid is rightfully terrified
That kid is so lucky he's alive.

Lighten up, Francis. The kids don't get hurt. They wouldn't show them if they did.
Obviously LOTS of people laugh at it considering the show's been on for 23 years. Slapstick always kills. Since you only have a problem with people laughing at kids, you must not have problem laughing at adults getting whacked?
This will be the high point of my day; it's all downhill from here.

I think most of you fail to see how times have changed. This isn't the 90's when it was fun to watch some dad get hit in the nuts for half an hour. Or a dog doing something crazy. This show is mostly filled up with internet videos now. Mostly appealing to the youthful crowd. I still find stuff like a chubby kid almost falling out of the roller coaster funny. Especially since I saw it on a website before I saw it on there. And since it nearly happened to me on a viking boat that spins up and down. This show isn't necessarily aimed at families as much as it used to be.

This is the only reason I watch the show. Hoping to see either an adult or child get hurt. Who wants to see a baby video with snot hanging from its nose and win $10,000 for it?

Since always.

I think it's funny!

It always been funny

Look up sadism, that was my point all along in response to the OP calling children getting hurt "sadistic". But you can misinterpret what I say as long as you like.

Look it up.
And they're not getting hurt. Are you a parent? You're wound a little tight, aren't you?
This will be the high point of my day; it's all downhill from here.

What? How would having a sadistically perverted view of seeing kids getting hurt not be pedophelia?

Do you have any idea what pedophilia is? Obviously not. It's certainly not something you throw around so irresponsibly.

It's not sadistic unless you get off on kids getting hurt, and that's got a tad bit of pedophelia thrown in in that case. It's just plain cruelty IMHO.

Well, it depends on the kid, don't it.
There is a few around here it would be really funny to see dropped into a log chipper . . . .

One video I saw (I'm sure there are dozens of these) featured a boy child riding a bicycle and falling on to the bar on the bike hurting his groin. He was in so much agony and the producers wanted me to laugh? I want to shoot everyone involved with this crap. I want to shoot all of them in the knee caps and laugh my lungs out.
