That shit is from the 70’s.
Yes but I imagine this mammoth of a TV survived to the 80s for this specific person to make the generalized statement of it being a developed fear in the 80s.
My friend has probably this exact TV in their family home until probably the early 2000s. I bet it was because no one wanted to move it.
With how big and cheap they are and a lot more mounted to the wall I’d be curious how many tvs get left because it’s easy to just grab laptops, game systems, etc. It still takes two people to carry those huge thin TVs and they don’t really fit in a backpack.

Idk about that, I can reasonably carry up to a 65 inch by myself and I’m not particularly tall (not even 6 ft) so someone taller than me probably could conceivably carry a 75+ tv
Yeah but then you get into having to worry about how thin they are. Try wall mounting a 65 inch LG OLED by yourself. It’s practically impossible without cracking the screen.
you must be using the wrong brackets. try monoprice
In the 80s we got a giant zenith that could answer the phone. It was gigantic, but the crt was 28" iirc. As it aged it took more and more percussive maintenance to coax into life.
