I'm not worried. I doubt my hair would be in any danger - seeing as hair is dead matter ... and the offending material is well-covered ...

Not gonna loose any sleep over this one.

GUILIN, China. — Soon to appear in the Guiness Book of World Records,
this 30-story giant yellow condom was unfurled over a luxury hotel in
the southern Chinese city of Guilin to mark U.N. World Population Day.

The Guilin Latex Company has applied to the publishers of the Guinness
Book of World Records to recognize their giant condom, 80 meters (260
ft) tall and nearly 100 meters (330 ft) around, as the world’s biggest,
the Xinhua news agency said.
