Feds Pop Bubble of Water-Walking Balls, Warn of Safety Concerns

It's a giant see-through plastic ball you climb into to walk on water, but the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission warned consumers not to use them after one person was hurt and a child nearly suffocated.

The water-walking balls are usually used by children and can be found as water sport rides at amusement parks, carnivals, malls and sporting events among other places. Consumers can also buy the human hamster balls in various sizes and shapes ranging from several hundred to several thousand dollars each.
