moist turtleneck posted:Did that guy in Kansas that invented the decapitating water slide ever get in trouble? All charges against the three men in involved were dropped due to prosecutors using inadmissible evidence. since the father of the kid who died is a state rep he was able to enact updated laws that require third party inspections for water parks, which had previously been allowed to self inspect

GotLag posted:"Steel cap shoes amputate toes" is on the same level as "seatbelts trap you in burning cars" Which is 500x better than your foot turning into inoperable body slime. If someone's really worried about it they can pay the extra $50 for the metatarsal armor. But lol at the idea caps are somehow more dangerous than a closed shoe.

razorrozar posted:im talking about something heavy enough to push the steel caps through the soft rubber, which wouldn't have to be that heavy. a boxed TV or mattress would do it. crocs aren't exactly models of structural integrity Anything heavy enough to significantly deform a decent steel toe is heavy enough to effectively remove your toes via crush injury.

This thread reminded me that I had to wear composite toe shoes when I worked at the FedEx Hub in Memphis. There's a place across the street from the hub called Sid Boedeker that sells hub shoes, they give you a voucher for a new pair once a year. They must make a mint. There was also an Earl Scheib across the street too at one point and they'd drive the baggage tugs over there to get them painted. Look up Tug MA-50 if you're interested.

My dad and his friend used to attach our sleds to the back of their trucks and drive uphill in the snow. It was pretty fun. I guess that's kind of OSHA now that I think about it. We never went downhill at least!

Reminds me of when I was in the air force and came into work and found out a pipe burst and flooded a comm room. Apparently the pipe burst in the little pipe closet, broke through a wall into the comm room, and sprayed water directly at a patch panel. The entire panel was pretty much doneso and the cable dawgs had to re-run a poo poo ton of horizontal runs because the water went several meters into the cables. Edit: I guess the Osha part of this story is that under the raised floor covered in water was 480V 3 phase power. Cojawfee fucked around with this message at 05:58 on Oct 25, 2019 |

My dad used to be a pipe fab for oil rig construction and one of his abiding memories was someone dropped a scaffolding clips off the side of the rig and it fell 100ft and it clipped a guy on the back of head, shearing the back of his skull off. Wear safety hats. He's also got lots of OHSA stories about welding guys into pipes who had fallen asleep in them etc. Lots of fun.

PurpleXVI posted:How many of those stories ended with someone dying horribly? Not 'that' many. The guy who lost the back of his skull didn't die either, he just didn't do very well either. Most of the death were from air crashes at Sumburgh etc. The airport used to close at night so if the helicopter was delayed folk would get in their cars and make a circle of headlamps to land the helicopter in, pretty sure that's not OSHA. My dad was supposed to be on the Dan Air flight that crashed at Sumburgh but someone else with the same surname took his seat and he got bumped to the next day. That's when he decided to stop working on the rigs. Aramoro fucked around with this message at 11:22 on Oct 25, 2019 |

lol if you posted:All charges against the three men in involved were dropped due to prosecutors using inadmissible evidence. Just another footnote to this. Scott Schwab, the above noted state rep, had voted in 2014 to cap personal injury and wrongful death lawsuits to a total of $300,000 in Kansas. His family got $20,000,000, because he moved the lawsuit to Texas, and they do not have caps there. The loss of a child is awful, but gently caress hypocrites, especially those in power.

I didn't know Volkswagen made networking equipment  https://forums.vwvortex.com/showthread.php?2688509-Coolant-migration!-!-Please-help! quote:I have an '02 Passat GLX and the last few months have been awful. Car has died on the road on us at least 5 times! Started with a fuel pump, replaced, $600. Broke again, replaced (covered). Then the throttle body, replaced, $1,200. Next day, car dies again. Dealer does a deep dive and finds that coolant has migrated from a failed coolant temp sensor through the wiring harness and into the ECU. Current estimate, $3000! Plus, it was this same issue that caused both fuel pumps and the throttle body to go haywire. on the MKIV Golfs it used to migrate to the tail lights.

Wear safety hats. I once had someone drop a nailgun on my head from the rafters. Luckily I had my hard hat on so I was able to stand up immediately and cuss him out. Otherwise I would've had to cuss him out when I woke up in the hospital. Always wear a hard hat. There are some lava caves nearby Mount Saint Helens in Washington, including the Ape Caves which is about 1.5 miles long with zero improvements. I made the mistake of gong through it without putting my helmet on and brained myself a couple times for my trouble. Always wear your hard hat.
