Baronjutter posted:One of the biggest causes of idiots killing them selves on train tracks, either on foot or in a car, is the 2nd train they didn't see. The crossing starts to light up and ding, the gates come down. You see the training coming from your right and know you can beat it, so you gun it around the gate. What you didn't see was a train on the other track behind the 1st train moving faster. A large proportion of people killed by trains (that aren't suicide) are on multiple tracks. It's very easy to feel confident that you can get past the train you can see, and you become fixated on that one to the point of ignoring others. Also other than their horns, trains can be pretty quiet from the front. All the sound comes out the top/sides for the most part. might as well  the video, terrifying double-track portion starts at ~15:00https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Naix-f6KSIg

I'd love to know the endgame of this one, do you sit there while a rotating mass of poo poo and paper "cleans" you automatically, do you have to put a new roll on every time you use the shitter etc?

I think there's a clear difference between "happened to die from an unrelated cause when taking a selfie" and "died as a direct result of taking a selfie".

Lady Demelza posted:Real content: Cruise ship crew Diogenes Carpio and Ben Buenaventura, both from the Philippines, died after a lifeboat safety drill accident aboard the Norwegian Breakaway on 20 July while the cruise ship was docked in Bermuda. Lifeboat drills are legit the most dangerous activity commercial seafarers engage in. Hey let's hang a multiple ton boat from wire forty feet up, what could possibly go wrong! (Also the wires are set up to be easily released in an emergency). Cruise ships are especially bad because most of their crew don't have a lot of training in lifeboat operations, and they have a shitload of lifeboats.

If a cruise ship goes down can we just forget the lifeboats and chalk it up as a soft win?

So there's some good and bad for the thread. The bad news is the new Labor secretary will probably defund and dismantle OSHA and all workplace safety regulations, good news is lots more accidents caught on video!

Why don't they have the life boats just resting on the ship, then as the ship goes down the life boats are gently added to the water as the ship slips under?

Sometime the ship catches fire real good and you need to GTFO before it even starts sinking. The life rafts are set up to self deploy if the ship sinks and no one launches them first though. Same thing with free fall lifeboats. Free fall lifeboat classic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_keBUBKmCU And a boring one on life rafts https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pMGXxuEJ4Pw FrozenVent fucked around with this message at 13:40 on Dec 11, 2016 |

If you somehow manage to get killed by a train, a huge massive roaring vehicle contained to a set path marked by huge tracks in the ground, then maybe it was for the best

Don't ships also basically suck everything around them down with them too, or am I dimly remembering some wrong info? If so, you probably don't want your life raft hitting the water right before the ship goes below the surface, better to have time to get some distance between you and the ship.
