Hazardous History With Henry Winkler

Starts Monday 17 November 10pm on Sky HISTORY and HISTORY Play

Hosted, narrated, and executive produced by Emmy® Award winning TV legend Henry Winkler, Hazardous History with Henry Winkler tells the nostalgic "back in my day" tales of unregulated experiences from a time before we knew better. Each episode tells the stories of the things Americans did for fun, for money, or out of plain boredom that you can’t do anymore. Pastimes, practices, and products that were once allowed, even encouraged, which you will never see again in modern America. There was a time, not long ago, when doctors would recommend smoking, when food was stored in toxic refrigerators, and children unknowingly played with radioactive toys, flew down slides that ripped their skin off, and decorated Christmas trees with ornaments made from asbestos.
