Wii Fit causes £20 million damage to UK homes

Wii Fit is causing unprecedented damage in living rooms across the nation, with nearly a fifth of polled women admitting they have got carried away with it.

Flower pots, television sets and even pets have all been affected by the high kicks and hula hoop exercises that are a part of Wii Fit.

In a poll conducted by insurer Sheila's Wheels, women admitted they had caused an average of £6.55 worth of damage in the last year. They claim that equates to a national bill of £20.1 million, according toThe Telegraph.
