Hello there Bashy. Good day and thank you for posting this video that you have came upon. I am sorry to see what happened to the boy and it is best not to follow and do this process to avoid any unwanted issues and incidents. Thank you and please be safe always.

Yeah, i not so sure my Phantom could manage to lift a rabbit, let a lone a child, so i think we are good on that score lol

Th kid was quite lucky that the drone dipped and in turn twisted the kid, which made the child  roll onto the ground and away

Wow!  That could have been a flying meat grinder.  

The things some parents do.

I know, crazy right?  thankfully he didnt take it too high, so many ways this could have ended badly worse

not!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The kid will be a stuntman in Hollywood some day. Looks like someplace in Texas, so that explains a lot.

Casey Neistadt did the same stunt, that also says a lot.

That looks a bit photoshopped to me.

What a tool!

Indeed it could have had a catastrophic ending.   

OMG!!!

If you see what the mini 2 did to my hand, this sure is dangerous!
Did one of the props break off?

Poor kid, but also lucky kid…

Almost another Darwinian Award candidate.

Yeah, not to mention that the MIni 2 pros actually fold in too, so if they were solid like those in the video, there would have more damage to your hand and yeah, the prop went Casper on his @ss, enough so that even the middle hub flew off too :/

Good grief.  I get asked to do dumb things all the time.  Just another example of what not to do.
