What are some dangerous traditions around the world?

I'm doing a research paper on how traditions affect people in a negative way, but I'm having a lot of trouble actually finding traditions that are harmful.

and then there's the breaking of the glasses tradition (when champagne glasses get tossed over the shoulder no matter who's standing behind - ouch!)

There is tradition much to eat in guests.Owners will be offended otherwise.

- food and drinks ( endless)
- stealing fiancee ( One Moscow bride has been stolen by the best man, then he was arrested becuase of real crime)

I can`t see real trouble with looking for dangerous traditions and customs around the world. Just Google it
