Britney's a Bad Mother? Nah, Check this S*** Out!
Here's a sweet piece of video from a shrine in Maharashtra, India, where they toss freakin' babies off a 50-foot tower for good luck.
Britney, eat your heart out.

Still not right!! A baby that age could break it's neck when it lands.

32. And, what is their rationale (no matter how dillusional) for doing this ridiculous and dangerous act to little babies? And, why aren't THEY up there jumping off the bridge onto their backs instead of tossing defenseless babies?

33. Oh what's the big deal. Same principle as having a trampoline in your back yard. After reading some of these comments, it's pretty obvious that some of these peeps didn't even watch the video! It kinda looks like fun to me! I would totally do it. I'm not so sure I'd throw my kid off, but then again, I was raised in a totally different culture. Some people feed their children enough junk food to give them diabetes, then let their tv babysit for them. Some people throw their kids off a building onto a mattress....live and let live!

37. LMAO I read the comments before watching because I was afraid to watch! Then I watched and it's not that bad! The babies aren't getting hurt at all. Britney's done worse than this to her kids.

39. Oh, dear, dear G-d! When there's no birth control and babies come too easily there is ignorance and lack of understanding of how truly precious is the soul in such a tiny body! What a sick and barbaric act of violation on an innocent child!
I've had friends who have spent time traveling in India or on spiritual retreats and, yet, I have never had a desire to go there--now I know why!

40. I don't care whether it is in India or ten buck two, I don't care to see it!!!! Like I said on an earlier post, I thought this was an entertainment site!! I am not entertained by this at all. If I wanted to see some of the traditions of India, I would turn on the National Geographic channel! Please take this down. STAT!

43. SICKOS...I don't buy the tradition card. At some point, someone should realize when something that has been done for years ISN'T right to do any longer. This is wrong and the people involved are wrong. It appears that these people do not have a conscious. Oh, they do...then it must be stupidity. Smarten up, people. This is 2008! TMZ, this is not entertainment and should not be on your site. You are just a dumb.

44. Welcome to a third world country. Kid dies, they'll just make another. They think cows are sacred, too.

45. If you're brave enough to actually watch the video, you'll see that there are men holding a sheet to catch the baby. Horrifying, yes, but not as much as TMZ would like you to believe it is. The babies actually (from what the video shows) are unharmed. I don't know what kind of 'good luck' this brings, but don't they believe in Karma? What if they get thrown off a balcony, minus the soft landing?
