What the fuck kind of gas do they put in those things? I thought it was nitrogen-inert and stable.

OK, that seriously had to hurt.

...naturally these tend to be made in China, where this accident occurred.

No alarms, no surprises, there.

The boy in question weighed 80kg (certainly a fair amount for a 14-year-old Asian youth)

That's 176 lbs, for anyone paying attention. Perhaps a lighter individual wouldn't have actuated the cylinder. Die, fattie, die.

Somehow I can't believe that actuating the cylinder is supposed to make the chair explode up your ass. I have an office chair and I weigh more than 176lbs. I have had it for 4 years now. The material is getting worn and it smells like stale farts but no BOOM!

Dude, that's nothing - unless he was 5'2".  My boy @ 13 is 180@ 5'8" and is the 100 meter runner-up for the district.

Of course we all know the boy was playiny bouncy-spin, but he was a boy after all.

I’m sitting on a gas cylinder chair from China that I assembled.  Fortunately there is a steel plate on the bottom between my ass and the cylinder.

I think it is the steel plate that the cylinder explodes into your ass. Be careful, no playing bouncy spinny.

I can't help but think of that video that I can't unsee, the one where the guy sits on the jar.

Damn.  His BMI is 27.4.  Well, the 100m IS all about the white meat.

I think that while calculating the BMI they should add the diameter of your bicep to your height. Or some other way of keeping muscle jocks and lard asses from having the same BMI.
