I'm an avid viewer of Dragons' Den and was surprised at how quickly everybody backed down becuase of Teo pulling off the strap.
As stated above he did put in quite some effort to get the clasp to snap, I'm pretty sure it was much more force than a toddler could generate but that aside it could still be pulled off.
That's not to say however that it probably could have quite easily been redesigned with a different clip or attachment very easily and been the same product but safer.
All of the Dragons seemed really interested until this point and then all went quiet once they saw the broken clip. I couldn't help but think that if they're that 'business savvy' then it was a great opportunity to buy into a good product at a reduced price (or more equity in this case!)) due to the clip 'problem' which could be easily sorted.0 -
