What safety sensor exactly was disabled?  Is there a physical sensor such as an impact switch?  My understanding is that off-balance detection is via software monitoring the rotational characteristics during spin ramp-up.

Kudos to Samsung for engineering the washer to put itself back together following a catastrophic disassembly event*, LOL.

COOL!!!!!Samsung washer---NOW DANCE!!!!Samsung now needs to do just that as shown in the film-the machine "reassembling" itself.Hope my new Samsung 4K HD BluRay player doesn't do that!

Samsung fear of spisplosion.

Samsung phones also have been known to spisperience spisplosion, so why wouldn't any of their other products be spispected to do the same? (Damn this Spiscel Spellcheck.)

The batteries in the Samsung phones were the culprits in their phones "failure".The DVD machine doesn't have batteries-except in its remote control.Not worried about that.

What would "Scooby Do"?

If you insist on keeping a Samsung Galaxy 7, keep it in a blast proof bag.
The Galaxy 5 has all the same features, except the edge touch. That was another blunder, because even with a protector cover on it, if you drop it, the screen cracks. I saw one crack when dropped on a wood floor.
A for washers, I've seen front loaders hold together better after a concrete brick was spun in them.
