Air bags can deploy with force sufficient to cause injury. Roofs can crush excessively during a rollover event. Gas tanks explode because they are placed behind the rear axle rather than over the rear axle, or in the case of General Motors pickups, outside the frame rails on the side of the vehicle. Transmission lockup can cause loss of control. The list is endless.
Healthcare workers use latex gloves during many medical procedures.
Until recently, most gloves contained a powder which caused the latex to break down and become airborne. When ingested, the latex creates a severe latex allergy. Death can result from such allergy if not immediately treated when a latex sensitive person comes in contact with a balloon or any other latex product. This is usually a permanent condition. The problem of latex allergies is not limited to latex gloves, but can occur from use of many latex products.
