gently caress spending your own dime for the company. Don't wash your hands and use hand sanitizer as soon as you get passed the bathroom door.

Do you honestly think Jerry from Marketing who was just taking a massive sriracha-fueled poo poo or Janice and Accounts Receivable who is currently spraying a toilet seat with piss because she's a 'Hoverer' are washing their hands before they touch that door?

At least rinse your canned foods before opening, by the way. Just putting that out there

There looks to be a propane torch between the mower and the canvas. It's a little easier to see in the full gif versus the slowmo one, but look where the ignition point is.

I'm thinking there's a spark from off the impact with the blades that's hot enough to cause ignition wherever the fuel/air mix is right? Immediately where the can cracks open I'm thinking most of the air gets displaced by paint and propane or whatever propellant they use, so not enough oxygen in there to catch the fuel on fire, and for the first couple of cans chance could have had it that any hot sparks had time to cool off below the ignition point in transit, so no kaboom. I'm thinking depressurizing propellant should be pretty good at cooling stuff off too.

I'm thinking that the way they had it set up, there was an igniter hidden in the grass. Their attempt at "painting" was pretty bad, as most of the paint was missing the canvas - so I'm assuming that was only a pretext for the big boom at the end.

I just don't get how you can just not want to clean the even tiniest remote possibility of having bathroom related substances on your freaking fingers, with which you eat! Purell stuff disinfects, sure, but also doesn't remove tiny solids after it evaporates :barf:

Because this would have been a great method for painting if they weren't purposefully trying to explode it :psyduck:

My family has worked in manufacturing since the 80s and one of the first things my dad told me before I started working in a plant was that everything can and will kill you.

I know 4 people that have been mangled in machines in factories; 2 are missing 2 and 3 fingers, a 3rd guy got his finger smashed in a metal press but still has it (and it looks/works just fine), and the 4th guy is missing half of his left foot.

Back in college, my dad got me a summer job at the plastic packaging plant where he'd worked for 20+ years. They put me in the air conditioned QC lab - kind of a plum assignment, really, considering that I was just a random college kid. On day 1 I got the tour of the plant - walk here, don't walk there, head check before you cross this intersection, because tow motors will murder you. Got to see the machines where my dad had passed decades of his life trying to provide for me.

On my second day at that job, right in the middle of learning how to use the gas chromatography machine, my manager stepped into the QC lab and pulled me aside. "New hire, I need you to come with me." That was the year before I was introduced to hard drugs, so I really had no idea what it was about. He led me out to the factory floor, where a semicricle of people had their backs turned to me. They crowded around a stretcher where my dad was laid out. I'll never forget how confused he looked, not that I'd have done any better. He never had an LTI in his whole time at the plant, but the day after I started, he was doing a roll change on a cast line (60' long machine that pours molten plastic into molds, eventually producing the polymer lining inside a Trojan condom wrapper, which I was in fact assigned to QA) when the machine operator allowed the nip roll to close down, smashing his fingertip between two large steel rollers.

Fortunately, he was a union member with good health insurance (the same that covered me as a kid, and one reason I'll always support unions) and the surgeon he talked to was able to take his frozen, mangled fingertip out of the plastic baggie and reattach it. Still looks a bit odd, but he kept his job and 95% of his manual ability.

A few weeks later, they reassigned me to the ancient Italian rotogravure presses on the opposite end of the plant, which was an entirely different bag of OSHA. Never before had I worked in an environment where I needed to be told that the fire suppression system would kill me faster than the fire, or co-workers told stories about colleagues who dropped dead within months of retiring. "Never stop breathing the solvent fumes and you'll be ok." They also had this practice of draping Christmas tinsel over the web of paper that ran through the 5 or 7 printing decks. Turned out they learned to do that while printing toothpaste tubes. The metallic ink for sparkly tubes can build up one hell of a static charge. Draping tinsel to ground it through the metal frame beats letting it spark near the open barrels of ink and solvent. I have no idea if that's a correct safety practice, but they followed it religiously.

A year later, the company closed down the roto presses - they'd been out of style for a long time. Everyone does flexo these days. Though I'd love to hear from anyone ITT who still does anything related to rotogravure printing.

Factory OSHA violations are the worst.

If people knew what went into food manufacturing they would have a serious problem with the extent of our current regulations. Every factory I've worked at has horror stories.
