Yes but I imagine this mammoth of a TV survived to the 80s for this specific person to make the generalized statement of it being a developed fear in the 80s.

My friend has probably this exact TV in their family home until probably the early 2000s. I bet it was because no one wanted to move it.

My grandparents had a similar model. It works to this day, I'm sure. Before they passed away (~5 years ago) , I would still occasionally use the TV to play my NES games when I would visit.
