If this is near the Arctic circle it could be melted permafrost releasing methane for the first time in millennia. It happens a lot in the tundra lately

Yeah, if the load isn't secured, then this happens:

But if you just want to commit suicide in a really baffling way, grocery store distilled should work fine.

Lol.

E: and here's what a kilo will do in water.

I think these are my own words being used against me. But I'd consider the correct operating practices of using a scissorlift without fallpro are too narrow to fit into the mental load of a someone just doing their job. The scissorlift is the quickest tool for the job, not the best, so I'd rather not leave enough rope to hang yourself. I'd also accept just building scaffolding everytime which is the best tool but apparently that's too slow?

Anyway it's a complex subject that noone can agree whether PPE is an engineered control or dangerous tools of lax discipline. Do seat belts make people worse drivers? Probably, but the benefits outweigh the risks.

E. I mean you can still coach them to site their lift better if they are hanging their whole rear end out while wearing fallpro but there's a better place to park the thing for what they're doing. PPE and discipline are two great tastes that go together.

How do you even start to fix something like that? I assume you can't just push it back into place and walk away, are they going to have to build a whole new bridge deck and keep it closed until that happens?

It's only a matter of time until people figure out how to be the 21st century equivalent of wreckers. Hang up some coloured lanterns and spraypaint some white lines on the road, and wait for the next Tesla to drive itself into a tree. Grab the driver's rolex, and leave before the lithium ion batteries cook off and incinerate the evidence.

I won’t speak for what the mods around here want or don’t want in their forum, but no. The NWS tag exists for a reason, no mods are expected to mod from their actual real deal “I get paid for this poo poo” job, and most mods are aware enough of their own forums to know which threads are likely to maybe have some poo poo other people shouldn’t see over your shoulder.

Now that said most mods in most forums will also drop rocks on you for posting un-tagged porn or gore etc in a thread that isn’t itself explicitly tagged NWS.

I don’t think any forum would welcome a flat out porn thread because that’s not really the vibe around here but that’s not to protect people at work.

YMMV, check your local forums rules, I’m not a mod in here etc.
