7. In Volleyball Courts
If an awareness of space is needed to play a good game of volleyball, so too was the importance of watching one’s step at some beach courts in 2004.
Ahead of a late-season tournament, Toronto police were alerted to razor blades discovered underneath the sand and in wooden blocks at volleyball courts on the city’s east side. The booby traps had been planted in grooves of wooden blocks measuring eight to 15 centimetres in length, allowing police to conclude that they were fashioned deliberately to cause harm.
Such an elaborate setup is something one might expect out of the Saw movie series, which happened to premier that same year.
