Please, don't increase traffic to these Russian trolls (Sputnik is the Russian "news" agency famous for spewing hoaxes and various disinformation nonsense). He also certainly didn't mean distracted teens taking selfies but accidents like this:

or this:

Spinning props are a major hazard at airports, especially in combination with flashing lights that could make them look standing still.

@janoc you may be watching too much propaganda in your country. i just linked an article that was in scope of the topic  :-//. Next time take you tinfoil hat off before posting nonsense.

Props certainly are dangerous, even small flimsy looking plastic ones are like a twirling razor blade spinning 10k RPM. I've been fortunate myself so far but I've seen more than enough gory pictures of rc model prop lacerations.

Bud, your article talks about two teens getting killed by a plane that literally landed on them and were struck by the wing of the plane, not the propellers which the debate was about. So much for it being relevant.

And re Sputnik, for your information: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sputnik_(news_agency)

At least check your sources before you accuse someone of "watching too much propaganda" - then you wouldn't post links from an outlet that is a notorious for being a Russian propaganda mouthpiece and come out of it as an ignorant fool ...
