Nah, they clearly have safety measures (no matter how basic) and the guys in charge of them actually pay attention and don't look stoned out of their mind.

The padding feels like a good idea but since its being held perpendicular to the person in the loop it seems like there's a decent chance that if the looper lost enough speed for gravity to reassert itself they could catch the edge of it and fall in an even worse manner.

Trauma surgeons are some of the most talented people I’ve ever come across. Several people I know owe their lives and limbs to these people. The good ones are at a level where the art and science of medicine are one and the same.

Seriously, one of them actually did rocket surgery. When an RPG is sticking out of your patients’ body and you get to play bomb defusal tech and trauma surgeon at the same time, then you actually succeed in the surgery...

drat that's a bad day.

Trauma surgeons and reconstructive surgeons are basically wizards when it comes to some of the stuff we've figured out how to fix. I saw one of those trashy A&E disaster shows years ago where a guy had fallen into a cement mixer that sliced one of his feet right off and mashed one of his hands into a pulp. They couldn't reattach the foot because of the entire joint having been lopped off above the ankle...so they used it as parts to fix his hand and he ended up with an almost fully functional hand at the end, albeit less sensitive than before and a bit odd looking, on account of how they replaced his thumb with a big toe and re-engineered his finger joints.

If you lose a thumb I wonder if you could opt to have your toe cut off to act as a replacement

In a non-cowboy smelter, when you're charging a furnace with scrap to recycle (or even raw material that you're smelting), you use a remotely operated bucket and absolutely nobody is allowed to be in the blast zone. You still get dramatic results if damp scrap ends up in the furnace, but it doesn't result in a person being showered in molten metal.

Having it done by a guy in a forklift sitting right in front of the opening is incredibly irresponsible.

The Muscle Suit is a powered hip exoskeleton for lifting (pick and carry). It uses compressed air that is stored in a high-pressure cylinder attached to the back. Alternatively, the suit can be connected to a compressed air hose, commonly found in many worksites. It can also be powered using a portable compressor, but they can be loud.

For a work related project this summer I went on a youtube binge looking at metal smelting, and they have some pretty nifty technology thought out:

Anybody reading this thread that doesn't know to turn down their volume when reading the words "arc furnace" deserves the to hear the brain shattering sounds for the first time. It's not a mistake you repeat. You already warned us when you said "arc furnace!"



Hey, can somebody loan me an Amiga and some synths? I've got a concept for an album straight out of 1999. Gonna combine it with some "tig welding aluminum on AC" noises, "transformer blew up and the powerlines are shorting," etc.

I like to watch fabrication videos on YouTube—foundrywork, machining, etc. It's fascinating to see how modern factories still use processes like sand molding that are thousands of years old, and have been improved continually.
