Hydraulic toy

This is in response to the News article published in April 27th 2012 edition of Greater Kashmir regarding Imran Muzafer who claims to have invented a hydraulic toy JCP truck that works on used disposable syringes. First of all, I would like to tell everyone that using any kind of used disposable syringes or lines is a serious health hazard and MUST be banned. You are putting yourself at a high risk of contracting blood borne illnesses such as HIV, Hepatitis and many more. So before every kid in kashmir jumps to replicate this toy I would like to relay this message loud and clear: please stop doing it right now!
Secondly, I had a chance of reviewing one particular video on YouTube that was uploaded by Dr.Arvind Gupta in August of 2009. He demonstrates the operation of a similar looking model. Even if Imran has devised his model all by himself he may still be encouraged but it is his legal responsibility to give due credit to the person from whom he has borrowed this idea.
