They believe he went to stamp out the cigarette and his shoes then his entire clothing and body caught on fire. His burned body was discovered at the “portal” of th bulkhead being purged.

Yawgmoth posted:I mean if you got the shot you may as well use it. If I were the stuntman I'd want to at least know I got beat to poo poo for something! The scene in Tora Tora Tora where the P-40 crashes through the flight line while ground crew run to safety was supposed to have the P-40 in question crash at the END of the flight line, and not THROUGH it. The extras were ACTUALLY running for their lives. Additionally, the B-17 single-main gear landing was due to an actual stuck gear during production. Movie aviation was a loving wild-west in the sixties and seventies.

The extras were ACTUALLY running for their lives. That scene really stuck out as being particularly realistic when I first watched the movie, then I heard that story and realized again how much of art is serendipity. The reason the plane veers left when it loses the propeller is simple, torque. A spinning prop has massive torque, enough to affect the flight path of the aircraft. It's a constant force, and planes deal with constant forces with something called trim. Trim is an adjustment to the controls set by the pilot so he doesn't have to keep fighting the tendency to bank right or climb. Just dial in the right amount of trim to the ailerons (roll/bank) and rudder (yaw left and right) and the plane will fly straight and level without any input from the pilot. The stunt plane has trim set, it has to or it wouldn't roll straight. The torque from the propeller would take it over and it would go the opposite way from what you see on film. Once it loses the prop, the trim sends it wildly off course as we see below. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WS_da33g5ac That's not just the best footage they got that day, that's some of the best stunt footage ever shot.

Dinky looking lights and operators. Give me the Eaton 30mm 10250 heavy-duty series. Push-to-test with metal nameplates. At least the engraved plastic labels are better than sharpied ones.

To me this is the industrial cabinet/operator/indicator label higherarchy: 1. Engraved metal nameplates and labels (legible, quality deep engraving) 2. Engraved plastic (white with black under layer) labels 3. Industrial Dymo labels or industrial-specific label printing (like process and safety label printers) 4. Non-industrial dymo labels 5. Badly engraved (too shallow) metal nameplates 6. Sharpie on metal 7. Flimsy tape label 8. Sharpie on tape Subcategory - attachment method: 1. Riveted 2. Screwed/bolted 3. Zip-tied or metal chain (for pipes and conduits, valves, etc.) 4. Adhesive Wire labels: 1. Ridgid printed wire label 2. Flexible “industrial tape” wire label 3. Number sticker wire label 4. No label at all 5. NO LABEL AND EVERY WIRE IS RED AND THERE ARE THIRTY WIRES AND THEY ALL GO THROUGH THE SAME LONG RUN CONDUIT SO THE TONE-TRACER IS drat-NEAR USELESS 6. Number five plus some of the wires are 120V DC (substation control power) 7. Number six plus some wires were spliced IN THE CONDUIT so the wire goes in one side red and comes out the other ina different color* * - This has actually happened Three-Phase fucked around with this message at 07:40 on Jan 27, 2018 |

Dyno do a metal tape embossing machine, it even punches rivet holes. Fill the emboss with paint pen and wipe the excess off, you'll struggle to make a better permanent label on-site in a hurry.

I forgot to add one last one that’s even worse: 9. High quality label that’s wrong (“CT-B” on the “CT-A” wire and vice versa.) “Ok we are ready start pump two guys.” “Starting pump two!” CLUNK WHIIIIIRRRRRR (pump one starts) “Pump two!” “We started pump two!”

iirc they're designed to fail like that so the connection doesn't break when a pole gets hit.
