I remember having a set of Jarts very well. I also remember our parents making plain to us that, just like with real horseshoes (or, for grandparents, quoits) no one was EVER to be at the end at which they were being thrown.

All sorts of fun things can be insanely dangerous if you're being "dumb as a box of rocks" when playing/working with them.

Wow, I haven't thought about that in a long, long time. My dad loved horseshoes and had a regulation pit he built (we grew up on 100 acres of mostly woods, so there was lots of ground). We hosted a family reunion one time and someone brought a quoit set - heavy metal rings! 10-year old me thought they were harder than horseshoes, for sure. I remember the standard "flip vs. spin" argument among the old-timers, just like horseshoes.
