How the hell do you go about getting the operator out of the skid steer at this point? Just have them lower the forks and try to fold the tank down, or would you need to try to cut it?

I like his jet kettle. Specifically, the way he (a) uses it indoors and (b) does not wear ear protection while using it.

The switch on Australian outlets is SPST, and only switches the active. Or, rather, only switches what's meant to be active - add one cheapskate who replaces a failed socket on his own to save the call-out fee for a licensed electrician and assembling this contraption becomes quite the crapshoot. Also, AU is 230VAC, 50Hz, US is 110VAC, 60Hz. I really hope the other end of that is running to a switchmode power supply and not an electric razor.

Ursine Asylum posted:I think the weirdest part of this image is looking at the underride guard behind the apparently-untouched back wheel. Either there's some damage there I'm not seeing, the underride guard doesn't go all the way across the back of the truck, or the physics of crashes are The underride guard tends to just be cantilevered outboard of the vertical attachment bars - the only thing standing between you and decapitation is the wall thickness of a box section. The one that made me mad was the Hyundai unmodified trailer where, presumably to save $2, they had no gusseting on any of the underride bar and it was effectively cosmetic.

Three-Phase posted:I am trying to find information an accident at a power plant I've only heard described as "Marietta 5" or "Marietta Unit 5". Do you mean Duvha 4? http://www.therisktoolboxshop.com/LiteratureRetrieve.aspx?ID=83701 Didn't kill anyone, though. Failure was most likely precipitated by electrically isolating the generator while under load - suddenly, up to 600MW of mechanical energy isn't going to a load and spools up the turbine much faster than the steam valves can be closed. These specifics are about as close as I can find to the case you're talking about.

Carbon dioxide posted:I'm guessing the school director had an interesting talk with her afterwards. Our folks once ran an evacuation simulation and one of our floor wardens left a (simulated) blind person behind to (simulated) burn to death. It was an interesting discussion and he didn't stay a floor warden. We also planned a multi-organisation emergency plan test in which everyone was meant to preface every radio and telephone call related to the exercise with "Jameson Jameson Jameson". See if you can guess what happened when the fire brigade were callled for a faux-chemical spill.

baquerd posted:I don't get it. Did they go looking for the Irish Whisky? They deployed their hazard guys per the exercise intention, but did not mark out in their system that they were deployed on-exercise. The event plan was that should a real incident occur the exercise hazmat team would still be available to respond; due to the missed exercise identifier and thus flag, that unit would have been unavailable.

Nothing quite like a few terabecquerel to remind the savages that they oughtn't be poking about where they don't belong. Sure, you could remove a source and place it somewhere safer, but then the uneducated have missed the sort of important object lesson that only comes with everyone in the neighborhood losing their teeth, hair and the internal surface of their gut dying and their skin sloughing off. But seriously, in that case everything was so utterly wrong and broken: the clinic owners were stopped by the police from removing the source until they paid a bribe (? - my memory might not be 100% here).

Baronjutter posted:What the gently caress is going on at about 2:40? Is the engine melting through the plane??? I would guess oil fire. Since you turn aircraft mags 'off' by shorting them out, I should think that the fire's burned through the magneto ground and he can't shut it down. With a dry sump and 32 gallons of oil, that particular party could go for quite some time.

Explosionface posted:On the topic of ladders, what do you guys think about going down them Navy style (facing away from the ladder)? I learned it from my dad and everyone looks at me funny when I do it. That if I saw anyone doing it on a site where I was safety officer, they'd be looking for a new job sharpish? Going down ladders facing outwards has been understood to lead to an inordinate number of accidents since at least the 1940's when the railways got serious about stamping out the practice.

Bloody Hedgehog posted:Welp, nearly lost a finger today at work. Sounds like your Lock out tag out procedures are garbage. Come to think of it, your equipment should be equipped with microswitched access panels and machinery guards which prevent the equipment from operating while things are open. The latter would not make up for the lack of the former.

Hot Karl Marx posted:In rural Canada there is a lot of propane heating still. After the last 2 lovely winters a lot of smaller towns are starting to go to natural gas cause propane started getting close to $1/L and it's really annoying to have to get gas delivered so often when it's -35 C (doesn't really matter if Celsius or Fahrenheit that low I guess). A lot of my job is doing main extensions to bring gas from dead ends to new customers/businesses because they're getting rid of propane or fuel oil. At -35C wouldn't LPG start to have problems with vapour pressure, meaning that it doesn't matter how much propane costs, unless you can burn it as a liquid you aren't using any?
