Seen too many of those. They sure liked the drama.

Maybe better than the ones we watch annually now,
I actually fall asleep. Used to have a test, most of us would barely
pass. Despite being given the answers.

Pretty obvious 100% on every safety and environmental test would
only bite you after a bad incident.

Not going to watch. Seen too many of these in safety classes.

Just kinda interesting for the guys who aren’t used to working on BIG equipment....
Claude Akins, the movie star narrated some of those.

ended it with “this is Claude Akins”
Always like this one. Blowing chit up.

Seen the vids, known some of the victims, helped pull a few out of the grinder.

Old school vids still relevant.

I didn't watch the flick but I lived my worst managing the utilities of construction completions on our Pearl GTL Project at Ras Laffan Qatar. The lights actually dimmed whilst I was giving my monthly review. The guy amazingly lived with major burns after punching into a very high (don't recall the line) voltage "temporary" cable not following established procedures. High risk "temporary" cables that must be in the engineering package... Hence forward I made it a requirement that I be present to sign off on any electrical dig. Anyway, touched a nerve and I'll sip my last birthday Gibson.

Seen a guy come in off a fishing boat missing an arm in Seward Alaska. Getting appendages caught in gears is a hard way to lose an arm if you ask me.

Oh yeah but loss of a limb is a SS Bluebook desig. Fast track

Until some dumazz removes it to carry on with what HE's doing!
I once saw a small elecrician whip the snot out of a very large plumber for that shi - uh - stuff!
Seems a pair of #9 Kleins is a pretty good equalizer.

There's a safety video for tower crane techs, where the guy checking the load line is sucked into the drum. Grizzly.

I sent this to my brother to show his kid. When unloading a cement tanker, instead of monitoring the tank pressure gauges the kid is upstairs in the office with his nose stuck in his phone.

Safety nerds that sit in the office and read books are never not funny.

We used that as a trading film when I was a shop foreman there. Got a lot of laughs.

We killed a guy at work when his wedding ring had worn a hole through his work glove and he touched a high voltage contact. Another time I was doing a customer demo on a 4.5MM printing press when one of the long term guys got his arm pulled into a roller nip. Hard to keep one's composure with a crew attending to the guy and an ambulance flashing. When I worked at a paper mill a girl lost her scalp when her hair got caught in a roller nip. We took too many chances at the packing house.
We were driving piles next to the railroad tracks,so we had to see the train safety films,Good God,they had actual film of women running across the tracks in high heels getting smashed by an oncoming train,business guys stepping in front of a high speed train,all kinds of grusome stuff. Thats why we had a R.R. safety guy with a radio stay with us the whole time.I was glad he was there.

Yeah. That’s folks don’t think about. 20 psi on a big vessel is a lot.

Never saw lines part. When the Frac boat would come to gravel pack. They ran 3” steel to rig floor. Would test to 15k.

Heavy and/or fast-moving machinery and soft, pink bodies don’t mix very well. 🤢

Round 30 years I had just taken a new job as a Paramedic, moved from the big city to rural SE ohio. Got called to a small saw mill for an injured person.
Found a guy split in half from the top of the head to just below the ribcage. Not crossways like the ol magic trick mind you. I guess he was adjusting the blade while it was running and the guy in the booth didn't see him and ran a log into the blade with him in front of it.
No blood the saw dust absorbed it, and the heat of the blade cauterized the wounds for the most part.
Guy running the saw ran off for about 24 hours. They found him in the woods the next day still in a state of shock.
One thing I will never forget, that poor basturd, his hands were on the blade burned, like he was trying to push away from it.
I've seen a lot of death and destruction, this is one I will never forget.

My dad always told me to use a "dead man" when under something that could crush me. He had an uncle that owned a dump truck and was crushed when he broke the wrong hose loose and the bed came down on him. "Dead man" was a term the old folks used.
