5 Dangerous Things

While doing some research for what will hopefully become an upcoming doc, I came across a great little TED University video by Gever Tulley, founder of the Tinkering School called: Five Dangerous Things You Should Let Your Kids Do. In case you don't have time to watch the video they are...

1. Play With Fire
2. Own a Pocket Knife
3. Throw a Spear
4. Deconstruct Appliances
5. (a two-parter) a) Break the Digital Millennium Copyright Act
b.) Drive a Car

I'm pretty sure I did all of these things between the ages of 3 and 10. Loved the quote toward the end of the video: "Driving a car is a really empowering act for a young child."
