Ok. I just started tanning. And im terrified of it breaking while im in it..what are the chances of that happen? All I can think about while im in that tanning bed is that scene from Final Destination 3. Someone please inform me on tanning beds, I dont know much. Thank you so much!

it`s not very likely!!! i`ve been doing the tanning bed thing almost daily for 15+ years & it`s never happened to me!!! if u go to a reputable tanning salon, they maintain the beds thoroughly & inspect them for any problems, so i don`t think you`re in any danger!!!

You have nothing to worry about. I am no tanning bed expert but I am an engineer and know for a fact that they take that very thing into account when designing the bed. Also the glass is not like glass on a home window, it does not break very easily at all, it is more like plexiglass, I think you would be very surprised on how much force it would actually take to break it. So dont worry nothing will go wrong.

Most likely it wont happen, they check and monitor the beds often.. They clean it after each use and would notice that something didnt look right. Plus the beds dont close or lock.. also the beds always have an OFF or some button to stop it if you get too hot in there. Another thing is that its automatically timed so after about 10-15 minutes it shuts off.. You wouldnt just be cooking in there even if you did get stuck..

the odds are literally 1 in a million if that. if it were common, people would be filing lawsuits left and right against tanning companies and it would be all over the news.
a side note, you might want to try something like mystic tan instead, it is a lot safer for your body since you aren't actually getting exposed to rays and since there's no heat or lamps, there isn't any chance of recreating final destination.

There are special settings on tanning beds that don't allow them to get too hot and i'm sure the glass won't crack. Tanning salons are required to maintenance all tanning beds and make sure they're in good working order. It's fine. :)

Hahahaha This makes me laugh b.c I feel the SAME WAY!! I am sooo freaked out and I always test the door above me and push it up a few times just to make sure I can get out!! I doubt it will break or lock on you... but all the same... scary!

Not unless you are like 900 pounds! But I know what you mean, I haven't been tanning since I saw that stinkin' movie!

I have never heard of this really happening but I also have that thought. You should research it online.
