October 23, 20223 yr Just last week... A college student in Georgia was killed when he was struck in the head by a propeller after disembarking from a plane he had taken to return from a date, authorities said. The 21-year-old man, identified as Sani Aliyu by the county coroner, landed aboard a single-engine Cessna 172 at the Statesboro-Bulloch County Airport in Georgia at about 10:35 p.m. Sunday, the FAA said in a statement to USA TODAY. “After the plane taxied to the ramp area, a passenger got out and was struck by the propeller,” the FAA said. Aliyu and a female passenger were flying back from having dinner on their first date, according to Bulloch County Coroner Jake Futch. “The girl exits the airplane and walks to the back of the airplane and away from the plane … he walks out … toward the front of the airplane and the propeller strikes him twice in the head and once in the shoulder,” Futch told USA TODAY Wednesday.

October 23, 20223 yr World Trade Center. The poor people that got trapped by fire above the impact. Your only choices are burn to death / smoke inhalation or jump. A few years ago, I stood at the base of One World Trade Center and got dizzy just looking up. I had just been through the memorial and saw the pictures of people jumping. Made my blood boil. Then looking up from the base of One World Trade Center. I just can’t imagine the horror.

November 11, 20223 yr Ouch. Quote A 39-year-old employee on their ninth day of work at a Caterpillar foundry in Illinois fell into a melting pot of iron “and was immediately incinerated,” authorities said. The U.S. Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration investigated the June 2 fatality and found that the worker’s death could have been prevented, according to a Nov. 9 news release. The melting specialist was removing an iron sample from a furnace when they fell into the pot of iron heated to over 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit, authorities said. The worker was employed at Caterpillar’s Mapleton foundry. “A worker’s life could have been spared if Caterpillar had made sure required safety protections were in place, a fact that only adds to this tragedy,” OSHA Regional Administrator Bill Donovan said in the release. “Producing more than 150,000 tons each year, Caterpillar’s foundry is one of the nation’s largest and they should be acutely aware of industry regulations to protect workers using smelters and other dangerous equipment.” Authorities said Caterpillar did not install the federally required guardrails or restraint systems to protect workers from falling. “If required safety guards or fall protection had been installed, the 39-year-old employee’s ninth day on the job might not have been their last,” officials said. In a statement to McClatchy News, a Caterpillar Inc. spokesperson said “we continue to be deeply saddened by the death of an employee who was involved in a serious incident at our Mapleton, Illinois, facility on June 2.” “Our thoughts remain with this employee’s family, friends and colleagues,” she continued. “The safety of our employees, contractors and visitors is our top priority at all Caterpillar locations around the world. Regarding the serious safety incident that occurred, we will continue to engage with OSHA to seek an appropriate resolution to its review.” OSHA cited the company for one willful violation and proposed $145,027 in fines, records show.
November 11, 20223 yr They were probably pissed that they didn't have any way to sample any tissues left over for illegal drugs or alcohol so they could try and blame that.
November 11, 20223 yr A couple weeks ago we had a crane rigger or somesuch get crushed by a load. Rumor mill says that the first limit switch at the top of the crane was bypassed (I can understandthe frustration, because the cable probably catches the limit switch all the time while lifting a load, but that's kind of a critical safety feature), and the second one failed or was bypassed as well and the hook was pulled up over the tip of the crane and allowed to load to just fall. Poor guy happened to be in it's path (line of fire failure, but I don't do crane stuff, so I'm not sure if it was avoidable). He was in his late 20's and a single dad to two kids. I increased my life insurance during our annual enrollment the other day. It might not be such a terrible way to die for the guy who was killed, but to leave behind two kids at that age in an accident like that that was entirely avoidable I think counts.

Bypassing your two block is very quick way for shit to go south. Another reason not to stand under the hook, even with no load - the 2 block cups will often (very often) break and fall straight to the hook. When on the fast line, they’ll often go off into pieces once they hit the headache ball. I’ve worked heavy lift all but a few years of my career. Lots of ways to join this thread working with cranes.
