This was on my local news earlier, and it made me yell at the screen where the hell are the parents.
2 twin toddlers playing with their dresser when it falls over pinning one of them, the other boy eventually does help his brother get free but not before he climbs on the dresser adding extra weight, it is a pretty tense minute watching the boy struggle.
Who the hell leaves toddlers unsupervised?
Mods please move if not the right forum.

Not so much unsupervised, but baby proofing your house so stuff like this doesn't happen. Every dresser of any size in our house is tied to a wall so it can't tip over no matter how much our 2.5 year old pulls on it. We paid good money to get a professional baby proofer to come through our house locking damn near every door, shelf, dresser, etc.
Even after all that... sh*t still happens. Accidents can and do happen, but something like this was completely unavoidable with a $5 dollar kit from Wal-Mart.

False sense of security with the nanny cam.....a case of Oh I can see them they'll be fine but when you're not actually there in the same room and something happens like this, I can only imagine the horror of the parents as they saw it happen. Could have been so much worse

Sometimes you have to wonder does bad parenting contributed to the rise of the SJW movement?

When I was a kid I was left alone alot. We lived in a small town, and getting hurt messing with stuff you weren't supposed to was the best way to learn to leave it alone. Lol.
