Well, at least the guy not on the ladder is holding on to it, so that when gently caress nuts plummets to his death he will not die alone.

How strong do you have to be to lift a ladder and a ~200 pound man on said ladder from falling to their death (maybe) with just one arm and no help from your back. My guess is hella strong but I'm no scientist.

zedprime posted:The ladder is vertically constrained at the top and base. He is (pretending) to balance it to keep it horizontally constrained while ladder guy gets into place. This seems like it might actually work (not be safe though) if the other guy was bracing the feet of the ladder instead of pulling it up and back, which is the direction of force most likely to make it slip off the wall

My concern is that the rails really aren't designed to take a load at that angle, so I can easily see a rail(s) buckling from the downward force being applied at a more direct angle. If it had been an extension ladder, I think it might be safer since those are designed to be used at a variety of pitches (including horizontal as part of scaffolding).

Forer posted:Related story, Fermentation tank where yeast goes to chew on sugars for bread and fart out co2 gets a hole in it. Tightly enclosed space that a person needed to get in to weld. I'm sure that i"ve heard it in this thread first, but the chain locker on ships (where the anchor chain is coiled up and stored) is treated with some measure of care, as the chain oxidizes so fast that the O2 level drops really low if the locker stays sealed, before you realize it you're in the back of the chain room and passing out and oops you bonked your head and you're dead now.

A ship's anchor chain loses its brake and goes into runaway mode. If the old Norse gods wanted a chainsaw, they'd make it from something like this. Too bad smoke obscures the end. Look at how big the links are and guess at the amount of energy involved in the moving chain. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RAcfaMDcY68

NOO you DONT understand. Read it again. STOP BAR. What can go wrong? What man would not cram all his extremeties into a gigantic metal shredder as it does gods work and insist on it being safe because there is a foolproof STOP BAR. It even says foolproof in the manual what can go wrong! hahaha

I'm pretty sure the chipper does not turn back on the instant you let go of the stop bar. If it did, that'd be incredibly bad design. That said, you shouldn't ever have to stick extremities into there, at least not without completely locking out and tagging out the system in some way.

Relying on the stop bar to save you when you stick your foot in a woodchipper is like relying on a fuse to save you when you use a blowdryer in the tub.

Too bad smoke obscures the end. Look at how big the links are and guess at the amount of energy involved in the moving chain. You can also calculate the speed and length of the chain by counting the white links! I have no idea how it works though.
