You couldn't pump the brakes at all. The new ones are better but the old ones were a disaster. I was riding with him once and he rolled through 2 intersections without any brakes. It was an automatic so no good engine braking.

Not only that but the number one way to get stuck in snow here if they haven't plowed or salted yet is to actually stop at an intersection. Once you stop, nothing you can do is gonna get you moving again.

I'd say this is about right. Just weighed a foot or so of steel with a taller web we have in the office and it weighs 31lbs and it has holes and stuff cut out of it.

XTimmy posted:Total layman here. Is there a way of testing if something like that is under load before cutting it? Or is it a crap shoot? I haven't cut a rail before, but I have used a cutting torch and worked with springy metal, so I'm basically an expert anyway it would probably be pretty obvious that the rail was under tension (they don't normally sit up off the ground), and I think that the guy recognized that, which is why he's standing away from the cut and holding the torch as far back as he can. He clearly didn't expect it to spring up so quickly and forcefully, and you probably can't really tell that's going to happen until you've experienced it.

I've seen this here before, of course, but this time I had to frame-by-frame the gif to make sure it wasn't the guy's head that goes flying off. (It's just his welding-mask-like protective headgear being knocked off.) I didn't think the impact looked severe enough to take off his head but then again you see some hosed up injuries in this thread.

Here's another video where they obviously knew the pipe being cut was going to spring up (you can see a front end loader being used to hold one side down) but you can tell from the thumbnail what's going to happen ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0z3FmgzTeK8 Bip Roberts posted:Is there a video version of this with a really satisfying *sproingggg donk*?

This kinda relates to the thread (OSHA oversees the Army, right?  ), but I'm just going to link this because even if it's not graphic, it shows people just milliseconds away from their deathsUS Army releases the photo of the mortar explosion that killed the photographer that took it

This is my OSHA story.
