I can tell that you were never exposed to a 1980's version of the "Trampoline.

I was almost 6'3" and almost 220 in the early 80's/ People would not let me on their trampolines.

Going back even further, I was 95 lbs. when the Big Wheel was invented, with it's little pissant 65 pound weight limit.

12 year old injures penis with magnets (the bound together to his penis for several weeks (from Urology Today):

A 12-year-old previously healthy boy presented to the emergency department with a penile injury. He was playing with 2 pieces of 6.35 mm (1/4 inch) square magnets (Magne Block TM, Hasbro Toys, USA) 2 weeks earlier. There was no history of sexual play or abuse. Both magnets became attached to the dorsum of the penile shaft, in direct opposition to each other. The patient could not remove the magnets and was too embarrassed to ask for help. The next day, he told his father that he had "magnets in my pants". The father did not understand the statement and the magnets were left in place. The 2 magnets did not cause any distress or pain. The patient was passing urine normally and continued his daily activities, assuming that the magnets would eventually fall off. It was not until 2 weeks later, when the pain and irritation worsened and the magnet site became very tender to the touch, that the family doctor was consulted. On presentation, the patient's temperature was 36.8oC (98.2oF). He was well hydrated and not in distress. Physical examination showed 2 magnets deeply embedded into the skin at the dorsal aspect of the penile shaft, at the 10-o'clock and 2-o'clock positions. There was marked tenderness with manipulation. The child was taken to the operating room and given anesthesia. The site was carefully inspected and the 2 magnets were removed under sterile conditions. A through-and-through type of injury to the dorsal penis was evident Figure 2; Figure 3. The injury did not extend deeper than the skin and subcutaneous layers. Buck's fascia was intact. Swabs for culture were taken. Results later confirmed a moderate growth of Staphylococcus aureus. An absorbent dressing was applied to both lesions.
