Girl swallows 30 magnetic balls, she thought candy

You would think an eight-year old would know better to chew before she swallowing. According to a CBS report, apparently this one didn’t. (CBS) An eight-year-old Indiana girl swallowed 30 magnets and steel balls from a toy last month and, her father says, needed emergency surgery to save her from what doctors told him were eight gunshot or stab-like holes in her intestines. This definitely goes under wild and wacky stuff. Do you think this one case should justify a recall of the Mega Brands toys?
