Never heard about Lawn Darts.

> In the previous eight years, 6,100 people had been sent to the emergency room due to lawn darts in the U.S. Out of that total, 81% were 15 or younger, and half of them were 10 or younger. On the week the commission voted to ban the product, an 11-year-old girl in Tennessee was hit by a lawn dart and sent into a coma.

From wikipedia. It's a bad example.

It once was the canonical X in "we banned X why haven't we banned Y" (where Y is something like "assault rifles" or "peanuts") but perhaps only for people of a certain age. A more recent example: the Boeing 737 MAX was grounded after two accidents out of a few hundred thousand flights.
