4Watching burglars get punished for their attempts with all manners of homemade traps can be hilarious, but also some of these traps are extremely nasty and outright ''life-threatening''.

12!!In general:
13* The entire concept of leaving one of your children home alone by mistake, separated from them by hundreds or thousands of miles, uncertain as to whether they'll be safe or not.
14* Spam on a spatula, it was only an in-movie movie, but Johnny emptying the magazine of a Thompson into someone at close range would have turned them into a hundred and some odd pounds of ground beef. Like, ''damn.'' Kevin is particularly traumatized after watching the first, to the point of [[IWantMyMommy screaming "MOM!"]]
15* [[https://youtu.be/8WKgNyvsNDM This rather clever video]] shows what would happen if Harry and Marv's AmusingInjuries from both movies were to happen in real life. In all, it would take nine Harrys and ''fourteen'' Marvs to be able to survive the various injuries they suffered. Also, although the latter dies more, it's the ''former'' who dies first, via a broken neck from falling off the front steps backwards. In comparison, the same video series determined that [[Franchise/DieHard John McClane]] would only die ''four'' times over the course of his first two movies, and all of those deaths are in the first (he was judged to have just barely evaded lethal damage in the second). Bleh.

18!!Video games:
19* The "Oh No!" screen in the SNES, NES and Game Boy versions of the first game consist of Kevin doing his iconic screaming pose. Doesn't sound too bad... except that on the SNES version, you hear Kevin screaming when said screen pops up, almost making it feel like a JumpScare.
