Looking at the GIF after I split it into each individual frame, it looks like it only hits his arm while still intact. It hits the top of his shoulder, slides down the side of his arm, and shatters immediately upon the bottom edge hitting the ground. The shattering is likely what saved him from more serious injury, as the glass immediately falls toward his head as it's fragmenting and showers across his skull with enough force to knock his keffiyeh off. Had the glass not practically turned to powder on impact, he would have been knocked for a loop at best.

I had a 45kg box fall on me from 21 ft up and the only reason I'm not paralyzed or dead is because it came down at an angle like that and just knocked me over and out of the way. Sprained the hell out of my neck and tore up my shoulder tho.

Anyone else remember that Chinese lane-straddling bus? The government cracked down and destroyed the shady company behind it, and the prototype just got left in the street where it's been rusting away and blocking traffic for months.

Man, even knowing it was coming this is still disappointing. I wanted to be wrong.

I like trying to spot all the OSHA violations I can in FPS games. And despite all the hazard paint you see, it's almost never used properly.

I wanna make a video game where all industrial areas are fully OSHA-compliant and when you come across your first set of red explosive barrels, somebody explains it's actually the newest OSHA regulation

And if you walk outside the designated footpath lines in the warehouse you get penalized. Also if you run, because running is not safe.
