Mike Tyson's daughter critically injured in treadmill accident
The sad story of former heavyweight champ Mike Tyson's 4-year-old daughter, Exodus, illustrates the dangers of treadmills for kids. Apparently her neck became trapped in the cord that hung from a treadmill console in her Phoenix home, and now she's on life support.
Children also have suffered friction burns from moving treadmills, even when parents are around -- they might, for example, reach for something under the equipment while it's in use, says the Consumer Reports blog.

That's sad that this child was in training at such a young age. I guess that is what kid's have to do in order to become world class athletes.
