Video cracks me up. I had seen it in one of my safety classes. It’s got that 70’s trucker music sound to it. [emoji1787][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

No video here, but I was there for this. The concrete truck driver was delivering a load to my project, and he turned around off the main road into the sand, burying the truck. He called the company he works for and they were doing work at another place in town. They sent over a payloader with a really large tow rope. They weren't able to hook the rope onto the truck frame, so they wrapped a chain around the frame, then hooked the tow rope to it. The rope had the big metal ends on it. The payloader driver tugged quite a few times, and was making progress. But then the chain snapped, and sent the tow rope flying in the direction of the payloader. The heavy metal end went right through the payloader window, hit the driver in the head, and went out the front window where it stopped. He was killed instantly. I didn't see the driver's head, but there couldnt have been much left. All I could see were brains scattered all over the inside of the payloader windows. It was a rough day.

How the HELL did this happen...hot mills are loud AF. He should have heard it coming a mile away
I was sent this vid the night that it happened. It's crazy to me how huge slag pit explosions can be
Omg I’m sitting through a boring meeting and had to try my hardest to not bust a gut at the part where the dude loses his hands and the bloods squirting everywhere
