Just read the stories for yourself: http://wreg.com/2016/07/26/grain-elevator-rescue-underway-in-marked-tree-arkansas/ http://6abc.com/news/farmer-rescued-after-falling-into-grain-bin-in-burlco-/1370489/ http://www.rd.com/true-stories/survival/buried-alive-grain-bin/ Accidents happen, and they’re often fatal. In 2010 alone, 26 Americans were killed in silo accidents. For the firefighters of Iowa, more often than not, a trip to a grain bin isn’t a rescue operation—it’s a recovery mission.

No one is saying that it’s impossible to be killed in grain silos, but is that particular chute deadly? Who knows?

There's a video showing the pigeons flying out somewhere. It's not just a continuous bird murder machine.

I'm not sure which I love more in that video; the birds that try to fly away and get sucked down in awkward poses, or the ones that honestly don't seem to care. "Whatever. Crush my bones, see if I give a poo poo."

Walking into a grain bin to clear a stuck crust or a jam in the output is like working in an unshored ditch, or running a sugar or flour mill with a lot of suspended particles in the air. The fact that some people survive it doesn't mean it's a good or safe thing to do.

Also if grain gets in your lungs theres zero way to get it out, since it sticks all over your respiratory system

I used to work in bulk grain transportation. Can confirm that small animals end up dead in the stuff fairly commonly. Rats, pigeons, mice, cats. After a few days in there they get all desiccated, it's pretty gross. Also we'd move the stuff around with bulldozers. Enjoy your corn flakes.

dookifex_maximus posted:did they execute that guy or did he wind up getting exiled I think they found that someone loosened or removed certain bolts that were meant to affix it to the platform there and didn't document it or tell anyone. So the guy that toppled it is probably in the clear, maybe, but the guy that hosed with the bolts is probably very fired.

Drunk Driver Dad posted:I read it was a metric - standard type fuckup https://www.spaceflightnow.com/news/n0410/04noaanreport/ quote:NASA investigators have issued their final report into last year's embarrassing accident in which the NOAA N-Prime weather satellite was significantly damaged after falling off a handling cart in the Lockheed Martin factory because workers failed to install two dozen bolts. Whoops. The responsible test engineer apparently also failed to visually confirm the presence of said bolts. "Nah, I'm sure they're there like the paperwork says. Flip 'er over, I have poo poo to do."

At the point where you strap the levers so the thing keeps on trucking without you, and then you get out and stuff, can you really call whatever happens next an accident?
