That wasn't even an accident, they planned it that way and have a little torch on the stone wall trying to light it on each try.

As always I'll point out the real OSHA here, because the description's wrong on the Youtube video. This wasn't an intentional ground resonance, the airframe had been damaged and the Army was going to use it in a weapons effects test. They did this on their own, without getting any help from the Boeing engineers, so they didn't involve anyone smart enough to say "No, don't remove the oleo struts and chain it directly to the ground because then it will go into ground resonance and shake itself to pieces before you get a chance to actually do your testing." The real OSHA is how the airframe got damaged in the first place: quote:The PC, who also was an IP and MP, was on the flight controls when the nose of the aircraft began a slight pitch down. He applied aft cyclic to correct for what seemed to be a normal divergence in the CH-47. But as he applied aft cyclic, the nose began a slow left yaw that he could not control with full right pedal. The aircraft then began a slow left roll to about the 90-degree point and then continued with what seemed to be a snap roll through the remaining 270 degrees. But it didn’t happen that fast; it felt like eternity to the crewmembers. As the aircraft inverted, the PI, figuring he had nothing to lose, joined the PC on the flight controls. (I am not advocating that two people try to fly an aircraft, but this action confirms that both pilots knew they were in a desperate situation.) Instinctively responding by doing what they had been trained to do, the pilots continued to fly the aircraft even as they saw the ground through the greenhouse and it appeared there was no hope of recovering control of the aircraft. The cause was eventually traced to water and rust in the actuator hydraulics.

We had a 39 year old guy die of a heart attack yesterday on-site - a half hour before leaving for the day too They gave him CPR immediately and had an ambulance & Fire Dept. on site within minutes for defib. Left four kids behind. All the equipment, training, and personnel couldn't bring him back. First death I've seen at work.

A worker from Berwyn was killed and three others were injured early Tuesday when a 45-ton beam fell at a construction site in Des Plaines, officials said. The workers were in lifts on Touhy Avenue working to remove the beam under the Jane Addams Memorial Tollway (Interstate 90) about 3 a.m. when the beam collapsed, officials said. One of the workers was taken in critical condition to Lutheran General Hospital and later pronounced dead. Three others were taken to hospitals with minor injuries, according to Des Plaines Fire Chief Alan Wax. The Occupational Safety & Health Administration in a news release late Tuesday said the incident was "preventable." http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/breaking/ct-des-plaines-construction-accident-20160405-story.html
