Adam wanted to do a stunt where he jumps off a four-story building and lands on a series of awnings to break his fall. The insurance company said that he was too valuable to risk it, but they let Tory do the stunt instead.

I mean it's not my only example lol, it just pinged in my brain because I'd just been talking to my dad about it. There's definitely been a suggested link - it occasionally gets referred to as "the photographer's disease", and there's solvents used in some kinds of colour processing that have been implicated in Parkinson's studies before.

Film development itself is pretty OSHA, or it definitely used to be. Developing colour 35mm in the '60s for sure meant a bunch of lads pranking each other with unpleasant chemicals in unventilated total darkness lol.

I guess if you want classic OSHA he almost drowned filming a documentary on an oil rig once because the producer lied and said the camera crew were all dive certified?

Film processing is absolutely OSHA, and editorial used to be back in the day too. Not only are you working with film and chemicals and poo poo, many of the edit rooms on studio lots were put in basements where hazardous materials used to be stored/leaked/etc. I heard one story from an old timer where the whole department got sick and many began vomiting and/or passed out during the course of one weekend. Turns out the building fans shut off on Friday night and unsafe gasses would build up in the rooms. They never figured out exactly what it was, but it wasn't carbon monoxide.

You can pretty easily get a lot of liquid propane inside the fittings, that will burn for a long time after disconnected. I have one of those rosebud-burners, and it burns for like 2 minutes after the propane tank has been fully unscrewed.

I developed black & white (Tri-X) and color slide film (Kodachrome) for years, from college until I was in my thirties. Nothing yet. We used to pour the developer (D-76 & Dektol) down the sink. Don't know what they do with it now. The stop bath was basically vinegar and the fixer was not an issue IIRC.

They quit doing that like a decade ago because it's too mean spirited. Nowadays those guys just get a ton of penalty laid added to their score... and probably blow up early anyways.

One of the most recent races had a fully race prepped Mustang enter. Got a poo poo load of penalty laps.

Lasted about 24 seconds into the first lap.

Weeeeelllllll

The stupid thing about this is that it wasn't originally a populated area. The bomb range they did a lot of stuff at was originally set up, y'know, away from populated areas, because it was a BOMB RANGE.

Then idiot developers started putting houses near it. So as with all the other situations where this has happened, and if you count OSHA worthy sites like old factories and industrial areas in general that are now residential, who's really to blame?

I live half a mile from where an old manufacturing plant used to be which dumped shitloads of PCE into the ground, and the land is covered with expensive townhomes now. All of which have a lot of bullshit in their purchasing documents basically stating "you live on a chemical spill, if you get sick that's your problem". As stupid and lovely as the people who ran the factory were, and while it's clearly their fault the ground is now cancer, are they really responsible for the fact you can now buy a house sitting on top of their old site?

They didn't have to shoot a cannon there by any means. Totally different situation than a housing development going up next to an active refinery.

That's your example of OSHA in the film industry? I don't think there's even a suggested link, unless they are using lead in their film development.

Lead is like, just one of several hundred, maybe thousands of substances that cause neurological problems. A great many manufacturing process use chemicals you don't want to be exposed to. A link here to the solvents wouldn't be surprising.

I just had a great idea. Going to the bathroom in space is difficult since there's no gravity to flush everything down, right? So what if we put the astronauts close to the center of a big centrifuge and spin them up while they go to the bathroom? That way, all the, uh, waste product gets spun out to the outside rim where it can be mopped up. Plus it helps prevent bone density loss by simulating gravity, so it's a win win!

(Except for the poor chump who has to clean the rim later. They lose.)

When the Apollo missions were going up to space, they didn't have the toilets figured out yet so they pooped in bags. The bags were treated with antibacterial gel inside to prevent the poop from forming gases and exploding the poop bags. After they pooped, they would have to massage the bag for about five minutes so that the poop was thoroughly mixed in with the gel.

Captain Jim Lovell, portrayed by Tom Hanks in the movie Apollo 13, didn't like doing this. So, being in charge of the mission, he delegated it.
