This Man Is Making A Terrible Mistake… #dangerous

Like how Japan gives us over-the-top hilarious prank-videos while China gives us over-the-top horrific work accidents.

Welp, that’s why we have safety regulations. I hope he’s all right.

I used to haul these steel coils. They are no joke. The ones I hauled were used to make tin cans for fruits and vegetables. 2 rolls per trailer 20k lbs each.

This brings back chills!! In 94, i worked in a plant just like this. I had a 30K lbs coil on the spindle to uncoil it and it slipped off as i was walking away! I dove and it hit the safety barrier, just missing me!! I understand!!! Things move slow there and you can underestimate the shear danger around you!!!

Lived next to a family who's father died when one of these things dropped on him from a crane. It was one of the saddest days for the neighborhood. The guy was somebody who would just walk up to anyone and start a conversation as if you were old friends. Didn't matter the age, he treated us kids the same as he did the adults.

As someone who had a foreman the broke OSHA regulations daily, he always told me, “it’s easier for them to hire a new guy that doesn’t know but teach them, but it’s harder to find someone that understands the true dangers of not paying attention in the workplace” the man was Salvadoran, this was my interpretation as a Hispanic with little to no Spanish understanding. Working that job I damn near got half of a knee-cap and 90% of my dominate thumb (learned how lethal infections from injury could get that week). But I guess the point I was getting to from my understanding was that boss man basically said never turn your back or let your guard down around dangerous equipment, and going through the amount of labor jobs I have I can say, almost anything in the workplace can be hazard, especially boss man working overtime while his wife in Miami

I saw the full video. There’s no audio but it looks like he must’ve screamed and then a ton of the other workers ran it to help him. Hopefully he made a full recovery.

I used to work in a steel mill. We reduced steel through rollers to make coils 2-3 times the size as the coil on his crane. Until the coils are annealed (softened after being work-hardened by the machines) they're essentially death ribbons. If the coil falls or the steel band holding the coil fails, the steel will unravel so fast with so much energy that it'll run the length of the mill multiple times, killing everybody in its path.

Even just 5 feet of the scrap can kill you if the band fails. One guy had his face smashed, his neck broken, and all of his teeth knocked out because he rolled the scrap end in the wrong direction, which snapped the band and 5 feet of work-hardened half inch by 24 inch wide steel plate turned into a spring that slapped him in the face. One guy got grabbed by the coil while it was spinning on the machine, because his glove slipped between the steel.. it took his arm after smashing cartwheeling him around like a ragdoll. One guy had his pelvis turned to dust after being crushed between two hot annealing chambers on a crane. Steel mills are an incredibly dangerous place for humans to work.

This isn't the Mason factory incident from 2012, but an accident in Thailand on August 3, 2020. The worker's legs were crushed by a 3 ton steel coil and no further details were released other than the factory would deal with it internally.

Bro really said "🎅🎅🎅 💀

Edit: OMG TYSM FOR THE LIKES

Nurse:here's a pack of ice

This is why workers must honor the system of safety. Because if you don’t it can cost you an arm or a leg.

I worked in a factory like that and they always tell you, never turn your back on anything thats not secure and never put yourself in a confined area.

"No, are you sick?"
"Did I stutter?"

Similar incident happened in the UK when a steel worker was banding a slit coil which was attached to a crane using an endless chain sling. He rested the coil which weighed approx 300 kgs on end stood up on the ground. Unfortunately, he disconnected the chain sling from the crane leaving the coil unsecured as he threaded the steel banding through the centre of the coil.
The coil toppled and without any restraint there was no way he could've stopped it toppling onto him.
His insides burst out through his shoulder as if in a crushed bag and he died more or less straight away with the coil flattening most of his body.
His mistake was when he disconect the crane from the coil by removing the sling.
The Health and Safety Commission investigated and found that the company had not complied with the Safety legislation and had not even trained the person on the safe handling of the coils.

Not only that, coils bounce, or they can come unspooled, a coil wreck is something you want to be very far away, even when you band them for transport you know it's unforgiving.

I thought they were magnets and my heart stopped for a second. I hope hes doing okay now.
