How are there multiple videos of the same thing happening? Do these people just not give a gently caress and leave fork lifts hanging around? What the hell is wrong with riders. They all dont even seem to notice the trucks nevermind forklifts.

The forklift guy has dropped everything to gently caress with his phone. The scooter lady probably has a tunnel vision, she rides this route everyday and nothing ever happens so who even needs a helmet. Then these two numbskulls meet in the same place at the same time and one of them becomes slightly number.

After the 5000th time you cheat death driving your scooter down a random Chinese road, the law of averages catches up and you get totally wrecked by something. Like a Bus, or a Forklift (hallowed be thy name), or an open manhole cover, or a sinkhole, or a truck, or a goose. If you're lucky, you live, if you're unlucky you die. If you're REALLY unlucky, you still live, with a face shaped like a C, eating through a tube.

Aren't you supposed to keep the forks low when unloaded, specifically to avoid something like this?

haveblue posted:Aren't you supposed to keep the forks low when unloaded, specifically to avoid something like this? Yes! Do idiots heed this? No! Also you're not supposed to park your forklift sideways on a route used by other traffic while you focus on your phone. Even if the forks were down there might have been an accident in this position, although it's more likely that the rider would have noticed the obstacle on ground. Damage might have been less severe but you can still hurt yourself really bad by diving head first to pavement with no helmet, and it still would have been on the forklift operator.

I've clipped my head a couple times on the ends of forks I personally left up on a forklift I got out of 10 seconds earlier (the forks were up to raise a large bag rated for lifting by its straps so I could balance the fill and make sure the pallet underneath was centered). It is surprisingly easy to lose track of dark coloured forks into the background when they're in the air even when you know they're right there. Forklifts want to kill you at all times.

It's possible she hit her jaw first instead of completely crushing her neck. Hard to tell because it looks like she's holding her temples. Either of them could have easily prevented the accident but only one has to live with the physical consequences

Guyver posted:Second when people say "lift with your legs" they mean to remove the spinal loading, That's interesting, because I always thought that it meant "lift with your legs", i.e. use your strong leg muscles to do the lifting (that get a relevant workout every day lifting your upper body) instead of overworking your back muscles (that, unless you specifically train them, are generally only used for stabilization). It seems weird to invent an entirely new and non-obvious definition and then rant about how the definition you invented is a bad idea?

it makes sense to me. keeping your back straight lets the spine handle the force instead of the lower back muscles, while the legs do the actual lifting. that's always how i think of it

Only vaguely related to OSHA but I'm about 30k posts behind the Crappy Construction thread and they've probably already seen it and I'm sure whoever installed this doesn't care about OSHA.

This is not my definition. This is what everyone who uses it or tells you not to lift with your back means. And it's insane and wrong.

Pretty much everything on an aircraft carrier is an OSHA adventure, but this reminded me of one of the worst bits: hangar bay FOD walkdown. Every day the crew gets together to walk through the hangar bay looking for foreign object debris (FOD), i.e. loose bolts on the ground or other bits and pieces that could get sucked into an engine or get blasted around by jet exhaust and do major damage. This involves having everyone line up shoulder to shoulder at one end and walk to the other looking at the ground. Also present in the hangar bay: a bunch of aircraft. And it just so happens that there are a lot of parts on the F-18 that are right at forehead level, like the wings, tail, and weapon racks. So you have a bunch of people walking around looking at the floor (often in poor lighting) directly towards head-level protrusions everywhere. I don't think anyone has ever done that for more than a week before cracking their skull on a wayward fin. Planes that are in long-term maintenance often have foam pool noodles fitted over the sharper bits on the tail to help avoid injury, but ones that are just temporarily stashed in the hangar for the day usually don't.

Aircraft talk got me reminiscing about my close calls in the Air Force. One time I was doing an eddy current inspection on some F-15 aileron hinges, which required me to stick my fingers in between the wing and aileron (which was hanging down as far as it could go without pulling out the pins or whatever). While I was doing this I could hear the AGE folks spinning up the mule for some hydraulics tests (or whatever they do with it), and I was like "I better hurry, but they always have someone do a quick walk around and call out before they actuate any flight controls" so it was on my radar I wasn't too concerned. Nobody called anything out, and literally like 1 or 2 seconds after I pulled my fingers out, the ailerons snapped up to level flight position with a loud bang. If I'd been a little slower I'd be shitposting at half speed today

I'm almost certainly stating the obvious here, but one of the bathroom's in my parents' house has a setup like the bottom three knobs—I think it even used the same faucet knobs—which was a fairly sane [cold water - tub/shower - hot water] configuration. The other two knobs makes no sense, yet now I really want to know what they do. Sinkholes are definitely among my worst fears, and it's good to know that a truck can just lay them upon a road like a loving episode of Looney Tunes.

Last time I saw one of these, it was for a lateral sprayer set (the upper ones); basically, shower heads coming out of the walls sideways, at about diaphragm height. Sort of a 50s-60s take on a shower Jacuzzi.
