This $20 million settlement came as a result of a young boy and his sister playing at the indoor playground at a San Diego Burger King. The boy, who is now 12 years old and severely brain damaged, fell on the tile floor while playing and smashed his head on the hard tile surface.

His family filed a personal injury lawsuit and named multiple defendants including Burger King, the restaurant franchisee, the playground installer and the marketing company. Court papers show the fireman’s pole and the monkey bars had no padding under the indoor play equipment.

The playground was built on hard tile floor;  the boy hit with such force that he sustained severe injuries to the parietal and left front lobes of his brain as well as to his lungs. He was in hospital for over two months and has needed constant care since that time.
