So I really didn't want to read that in the funny pictures thread

But while I'm here, that's why LOTO is so goddamned important.

Why was the line running while they were trying to replace part of it? How would you even do that if it was spraying woodchips everywhere?

OwlFancier posted:

I can entirely believe that someone wouldn't bother to turn it off if it still worked but I'm just struggling to understand how it would still work.

Unless, are the blowers situated off the main run of the line so you can remove them individually without taking a chunk out off the main line?

I'm disappointed this did not cut to electronic music when she said "drop it".

Eddie Lampert needs to die in a vacuum:

"A 38-year-old male maintenance worker (the victim) died after being drawn into a 17½-inch-diameter positive-pressure vacuum pipe at a paper processing plant. The victim and two co-workers were attempting to replace a blower on a vacuum line with a pressure of 3,740 pounds per square inch (psi). The vacuum line transported wood chips 300 yards from the milling process into the paper plant. The blower was located 10 feet above the ground at the outside wall of the plant, and was accessed by a 2-feet-wide steel-grate catwalk fastened to the outside wall of the plant. The crew on the previous shift had prepared the replacement blower for installation and moved it to the worksite. When the victim and his co-workers arrived at the site they were instructed to remove the faulty blower and install the replacement blower. After the men unbolted both the 10-inch pipe that fed wood chips to the blower from the milling process, and the 17½-inch pipe that led from the discharge end of the blower, the faulty blower was lifted out of position by a small crane. The victim attempted to walk past the unguarded 17½-inch pipe when the vacuum suction pulled his chest against it. He called to his co-workers for help and both men grabbed him and tried to pull him away from the pipe; however, the victim was doubled over backwards and pulled 38 feet through the pipe by the vacuum until he was stopped by the intake shroud of the next blower on the vacuum line."

He had time to scream for help so it was actually much worse than vacuum crab

nothing seats a flange like enough vacuum to suck off a man through a 17in pipe.

We used to call that bullshit "slick"

Shiny, very music video-y, early digital grading, fast editing...

BaldDwarfOnPCP posted:

Yeah kind of like how GO was a slick version of idk, Trainspotting or Basketball Diaries.

That's maybe a bad comparison. Was Requiem for a Dream slick?

Exceptions being people still shooting on old film and not using digital grading (like Kill Bill is timeless but just about every other movie from 2004 has that weird greasy metallic look).

Memento posted:

the only reason Tarantino hasn't switched to digital is that you can't measure that in feet

I spoilered that industrial accident because this is the Funny Pictures thread, not the OSHA thread. Carry on.

It is also, however, the dogs gently caress and chuck up thread, apparently.

Will Smith opens up in his new memoir WILL about feeling like a failure as a father when his youngest son, Jaden Smith, asked to be emancipated at age 15.

The father-son conversation occurred amid the box office failure of the pair’s 2013 science-fiction adventure After Earth. Smith blamed himself when his son was panned by film critics.
