Good Thing Charlie Brown Never Got His Hands On These

I had no idea that kite flying could be competitive, but in Delhi, India, people apparently use glass kite strings to battle with and take down "competitors." And now those glass strings are killing bystanders, including some kids who poked their heads out of car sunroofs to watch the kites and had their throats slashed by the glass strings. Apparently, this happens every year on India's Independence Day. Birds also have a tendency to get killed by the strings. They've now banned the glass strings, which seems to be a wise move. (BBC)
