  • and as for gases leaking out of the curtain, that's complete and utter nonsense and if your shower curtain does that you're either burning it or it's not PVC.

  • PVC in itself is completely harmless and can't poison you, as depicted the cartoon so the baby will never be poisoned by putting the PVC duck in it's mouth. The problem comes when we try to recycle it because it doesn't degrade and releases toxic gases when incinerated.

  • So if PVC is poisonous, why is it no problem at all to put it in a aquarium, or use as (drinking)water pipes??

    Though I don't know anything about how PVC is made, maybe the by-products are toxic?

    Other than that, this vid smells like BS to me...

  • PVC is O.K. if your scared of the gases then just don't put you head in a bag of PVC and take breaths. and if PVC is poison,why do you think stores can sell it? IT IS OKAY TO HAVE,JSUT DONT FILL YOUR ENTIRE HOUSE WITH IT!

  • This guy is a government troll.

  • Aren't all plastics poisonous?.. I mean they're all bad for us and the environment...

  • Every time I read a comment like this I begin more and more to realise we are all doomed.

  • i second that

  • Well that's actually pretty entertaining, and on a sidenote i will not use things with the number three on them anymore.

  • Ignorance
