Is tossing babies off a 50-foot tower a good idea? In India, some think so

Can tossing a baby off a 50-foot tower into a white sheet be good for the health of a baby? Traditionalists in India think so and do it regularly. USA Today has a video report of the process. They insist that no babies have been harmed by this practice. Warning: This video does show babies being tossed from the tower.

oh my goodness! that seems so dangerous. seeing the baby being tossed on to the white bouncing thing that's pretty scary.

it's not good at all. I would never do that in my entire life. It's extremely wrong. who cares how they feel, they should just put it up for adoption.
NO!!!
why would you ever do that?!
uhhhh... would it be good for the poor babies health if the sheet broke or it wasn't caught!!!!! i am all for doing what your religion says but when it is putting the lives of others or your children in danger then... something is not quite right
its what they believe and if thats what has to happen then thats what has to happen. so in your mind its not right but in the minds of the ppl who do this it seems right. but i dont agree with the idea of doing it
That is Horrible how can anyone thinkthat is good for a child
If it was Michael Jackson or some westerner following this practice, it would be condemned and made illegal.
Also, even if the baby doesn't show any signs of external damage, how do we know that it doesn't cause internal damage that doesn't show up right away?
no that would not be a good idea. A baby could die because of the impact of the landing. Also the w
No it would not be a good idea. The baby could die or be ingered
