While it doesn't sound like it's the case here, it IS possible for a TV
to fall on a child depending on the circumstance. Way back in 1971 (on
the day of a big earthquake in Sylmar, CA (near LA) where a hospital
collapsed) I was babysitting a toddler. She was over near the TV and
was either pulling herself up while holding onto the little table it was
on or had done something else to cause it to tip -- and the TV started
sliding off toward her!!! She was just a tiny little thing and I was
shocked that it happened so easily! Fortunately I was very close to her
at the time (watching coverage of the earthquake, probably) and managed
to get to her and stop the slide before something tragic happened (which
was quite a feat since I was heavily pregnant at the time).
