You may think that hanging and flying scenery are harmless but without the right procedures and safety measures taken it can be very dangerous. When the precautions are not taken it can cause death, loss of limbs, fires, and broken bones. So you must take precautions.

Safety tips: Don't hang the scenery right above people because if it falls it will hurt somebody. Keep the scenery and the ropes away from light because the light causes heat and it can light the scenery on fire. Don't buy a piece of hardware that you aren't sure is safe. Buy them from reliable users.
