There is a variant of the chair that have gaps in the seat to prevent rain from pooling. While it's a useful feature, it also presents a danger because sitting on them can cause the gaps to widen, allowing things like testicles to pass through, and get caught when the person stands up.

Enjoy picturing that thought.

The one in the thumbnail has a gap

I don't know about you, but that gap seems safely out of testicle range. Unless I've been sitting totally wrong this whole time.
