The 16-year-old Georgia boy was arrested this week for laying a baby on an inflatable pillow, then jumping on the edge of the pillow to launch the infant into the air and across the room.

  • OMG i couldnt see the video, just the description gave me the creeps.
    I watched kids when i was 16 years old, and even back then i knew how fragil a baby is, even when a was 7 years old holding my nephew i knew that!!!
    this is just sickening, i dont know if i should be sorry for this guy for how stupid he is or hope for him to be locked up util he is 21.

  • What the hell... he launched the baby right to the floor. Not even on a bunch of blankets, pillows, or anything.

  • whats wrong with this kid? has anyone ever explain to him how fragile a baby could be? how sad that a grown boy needs that explanation?my heart breaks for the baby while these two stupids take advantage....there lucky that wasnt my child.

  • When I was two, my older brother, who was six, used to use me as an American football ball with his friends, throwing me across the room and catching me. They missed a couple of times, and I could have been badly injured. A sixteen-year-old kid really should know better.

  • Who was videotaping this? Was the camera on a tripod? If not, I think another person is in trouble here and that is whoever is behind the camera.

  • wow this boy has no common sense at all dosent he know your suppose to be gentle with a baby? he needs help big time
  • The baby almost hit the fireplace.

    There are few times I can be speechless but this is one of those times. What do you say to your child when he does that? I'd just stare at him in shock and horror.

    Mindless boy. They should get a big fat man and place that boy on a air mattress and have the fat man launch him into a pile of bricks and ask him how fun that was.

  • He just needs to get his ass beat. I can't fathom being that dense; I've known babies were fragile since the single digits. He has absolutely no excuse, unless he himself was launched into a wall when he was a babe.

  • I couldn't even watch this video, Who the hell left that ignorant ass monkey in charge of a baby? THe parent should have known that this idiot was not capable of watching a baby!! What could he possibly have had going through his retarded head?? The person who left the baby with him should face charges for abandoning a baby with an idiot.

    There is no way that this kid didn't realize that he could hurt that baby, unless he really is retarded, and even then, um no, he would know better!! My kid has autism and is way younger and understands that you have to be gentle with babies and animals. I can't understand the world today, everywhere you look people are hurting or endangering children, doesn't anyone really care anymore? They just leave their kids with anyone. WTF??

  • If he was sick enough to post this, just imagine what he did not catch on videotape...
  • This is one of the most disturbing things I have ever seen. Things like this have made me lost my faith in humanity.

  • This is a warning sign of a "kid" headed for very serious issues in his life.

  • this is why i love and hate youtube! people want to have thousands of video views and will do almost anything without even thinking.

  • "I wasn't dropped on the head as a baby—I was launched from a pillow by an idiot 16-year-old"

  • Yeah I’m definitely not going to watch that video. However I could watch a video of that child abuser getting the crap kicked out of him over and over again.

  • my dad tossed me into the air as a baby... he did it all the time and i used to love it.... he missed one time.. i bent my foot... or like sprained... but still it was bad...
    although this is just horrible.. its like the kind of thing that you would say when your mad as an euphemism..... kinda like "arghhh you made me mad enought to punch a baby"...

  • Wow. This is sick and horrible. It's just tossed. Poor baby.
    averagehero
  • so sad. truth is, babies and kids get abused every minute of everyday all over the world.
    its sad to see this incident taped but on the other hand it is good to get the public exposed to such things so that we all can toss that ignorance aside

  • i know the perfect punishment. a few years of this and he'll be good to go. you know at lakes they have the giant inflatable balloons, looks just like that pillow but bigger, where one guy jumps from 20 feet up or so and launches another person off the other end? just do that but on concrete.

  • That is so sickening. I'm too scared to see the video, but i know that baby could have died. I know I've had my own share of incidents when I got badly injured as a little kid, but this just disgusts me. I cannot believe he would do that. Do you know what kind of sentence he got?
  • you know this kid thought he was hilarious and gonna get some e-fame

  • If that were my baby I would break every bone in that guy's body with excessive force. To recreate the experience he put my child through.

  • What is wrong with some people? I just don't understand what is going on in their heads.

  • This is so very wrong on many levels. Too many factors come into play when deciding this kid's fate (and fate it would be, should i get my hands on him)

  • If that kid had launched my son across a room, he'd be walled up in the fireplace. Safe* from the authorities.

  • I like the way ABC news runs the video - after an advert.

    Isn't that profiting from crime?
