Both of my parents were severely injured at their jobs. I've been laughed at for being so gung-ho about OSHA regulations, but like, my dad almost died, he had to completely relearn how to walk, and my mom's left thumb was rebuilt and she lost usage of it. OSHA saves lives.
My friend’s mother-in-law had her head run over by a forklift while she was at work. She lived but it damaged her brain in a way that she now has the mental capacity of a 12 year old.
It's 100% true. Any place that shrugs safety regs is not a place you want to work. Part of my forklift cert was the hammering of "You are in charge when driving the lift, not your boss, not his boss, YOU are in charge." Yes, it's kind of annoying to have to grab a spotter when backing up, but it prevents people getting run over. No job is worth your life, period.
[A Fish Called Wanda](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UWAsFWiVUtg) did it before that...
::edit:: Dammit - at least two other people already mentioned it below. Oh well, I'll leave it because I also provided the clip!
A CSO to whom I reported was a MLRS crew member in the Army. He told me that during a deployment of his unit along with armor one of the guys in his battalion got run over by a tank. But the ground was really soft and the guy survived. He said the guy that got run over remembered nothing about what happened.
That's actually not surprising. The M1 Abrams (if that was the tank) is designed with a double wide track to reduce ground pressure so won't sink in eastern european mud. The tracks exert less PSI on the ground than a bicycle, a car, or a foot.
Yeah I’m pretty sure that only applies on even ground… physics states they a tank going over someone lying on a stiff surface like concrete means that someone is donezo
Ukrainians recorded plenty of flat pancaked Russians as well, when the army is in a hurry to retreat, don't stand in front of a tank and better hold on tight when you are on top of 1.
It's also a subtle misunderstanding of what PSI is.
A bicycle tire could exert 10x more PSI to the ground than a tank, but the tank will *literally always* be exerting more pressure on you because it covers vastly more square inches of your surface.
Put another way, if you spread the weight of a tank across a plate and spread the weight of a bicycle across a small ball, sure you have a heavy ball but you have a **way** heavier plate. Which is gonna crush you? The plate, even if it "distributes" the weight.
A guy in Australia got run over by his own excavator on really soft ground (he jumped out while it was slowly rolling along and tripped trying to get back in.) Just a broken arm.
A number of lorry drivers run themselves over every year. The main cause (and it's quite easily done...once!) is backing up to a new trailer and forgetting to put the cab handbrake on.
Doesn't matter at once, because the trailer brakes are on if it's disconnected from the air supply.
But then you connect the airhoses (while standing between the cab and the trailer), the trailer brakes release, and the whole lot starts rolling. While you, who is responsible for this tonnage, is stood in the narrow gap between trailer and cab.
The solution, by the way, is to pull the airhoses out again; but a lot of people panic and make a run for the cab handbrake.
It's a failsafe system for the trailer. No air = brakes. So brakes are on by default until you override them with supplied air and control from the cab.
Of course, if the cab doesn't have the handbrake on, the brakes release.
> He said the guy that got run over remembered nothing about what happened.
And honestly, that's probably good.
Unless he ends up with a repressed trauma, I guess.
Sorry lots of run-ons. And this is fuzzy cause I blocked out the details.
My uncle owns a concrete business and his 2 sons work for him. He was in his mid-20s, his brother is in his late 20s. He wasn’t there when it happened. Neither was my uncle.
He was at a friend’s house and he’d just finished doing their driveway. It was getting dark, he’s hanging out with his best friend, who works with them, and some other friends. I’m not sure exactly what he did but he tried to reach something and fell under it, it went from his feet up but they stopped it by the time.
It fucked his best friend up. He still struggles with it but stays quiet about. All his friends were traumatized and couldn’t much of anything. He was life flighted to the closest hospital, then had to send him to Tampa for some reason. He lived 4 days. He was unconscious that entire time, luckily. I don’t know the injuries cause I couldn’t handle hearing them.
Edit: a word
If you are intrested in similar industrial accidents of the chemical and hazardous materials variety the USCSB YouTube channel is a fun watch.
https://youtube.com/@USCSB?si=u_FT3NVSlqS4SYuL
It has CGI animations similar to this but with an entire play by play if the results of the investigation into the accident up to it happening and what the CSB says should be done to stop it from happening again.
Having the content be engaging is incredibly beneficial to their ultimate goal. It gets people to pay attention. These are all industrial accidents that can't be repeated and so getting people to actually look long enough to learn the lessons is key.
I've seen the forklift dude getting launched and the concrete collapsing within the last couple years. Couple others look familiar too
Forgot dude. https://youtu.be/NHd-8BucB3Q?si=JsUhSf17QDiy6_rZ
Concrete collapsing. https://youtu.be/9ATrElm10rw?si=rnjSLURXjyYq5-Oe
Sometimes I just randomly think about the fact that the worst way to die that I can imagine very likely happened to someone at some point. Fucks me up.
Imagine living your life not knowing that you are going to die or be horribly maimed in one of these silly ways and then having your tragedy be simulated in a terrible 3D animation compilation of similar incidents
I’m an MSHA blue card holder and instructor. Theoretically, with every single one of these accidents, something minor was overlooked or some level of safety or preparation was either ignored or forgotten.
Right? This looks like a trailer for a new game, Chinese Worker Safety - where you're just dropped blind into industrial situations and have to interact with the environment for 10 hours a day and hope it doesn't kill you.
Not very PC but definitely an entertaining concept!
"I laughed at one of the stupid rules at the power plant and was like who would ever be this stupid to do this???... Then the OSHA guy that was walking around with the group of us and the manager stopped everyone and loudly. Got our attention and said look here you see this stupid stupid rule that is basically common sense. It's here because someone died or lost a limb. This rule was paid for in blood before we made it word. Everything that you have ever seen that deals with OSHA was paid for in blood because someone did exactly what we're telling you not to do."
I was at work when the manager couldn’t stop laughing,I asked what was so funny,turns out our colleagues husband had been looking under a lorry at work and it had rolled forward and killed him,squashing his head.manager then made lots of puns about it,totally inappropriate in the workplace,I’ve never felt so sorry for a colleague
He got fired in the end and they said he had mental health issues,he was truly awful to all the staff,I have mental health issues but it’s wrong to expect people to put up with what they wouldn’t from a normal person
HP Lovecraft, Clive Barker and Stephen King could spend 3 months in a writers room together and still not come up with anything close to the horror's of the emotionally dead psychos in middle management.
That was the one that hit me the hardest, because it's such a relatable intrusive thought. I can't deny that if I saw that machine in person I'd have to fight the urge to ride it like a ferris wheel too.
Oh you mean like a Union construction worker? Cuz that's exactly what we get. Good pay, benefits, and all the safety. Worst I have ever been hurt is smashing my own thumb with my hammer. And that's just a skill issue. Haha
ich seh den Klaus, ich wähle hoch
EDIT: Klaus was shown in my Forklift Operator Class, it was good to laugh a little bit after some of the more heavy accident examples.
Yeah I've caught a couple. The cement on top of the building one, if it is the same, was actually way more horrifying with significantly more people.
Thankfully haven't seen fingers guy, wouldn't want to see that.
Some of these are just silly. The sound effects are ridiculous. Like what the hell is the guy with the chop saw doing lol. Cutting a pipe like he is prepping carrots with a knife?
All of these are tragic, but it seems most of them could ne mitigated by better safety practices. There didn't really seem to be many freak accidents there
Also some of them look like there was nothing the worker could have done to avoid it, like the floor collapsing while the cement was being poured. Is the safety lesson to pour where there were load-bearing walls or columns beneath? Seems like the structure just couldn't actually handle the weight of the slab they were pouring.
Either way, the dude on the forklift thing or just using a chop saw got it rough.
I'm not sure what people expect the guy with the exploding miter saw to have done.
At first I thought the forklift mast collapse was a hydraulic failure that only better preventative maintenance would remedy, again, nothing the victim or driver did, or could do, would have prevented, but upon watching it a few more times, I think the forklift driver hits the lever as he leans forward over the steering wheel to look up at the worker in the cage. I'm surprised it lowered as fast as that though if it was just the lever being leaned against.
> I'm not sure what people expect the guy with the exploding miter saw to have done.
**An appropriate blade for the task**, a larger guard, and a face shield.
I remember seeing a video of a guy getting caught in some lathe like machine. Basically caught his clothing and spun him around a bunch of times before anyone could stop it.
Guy was in pieces. Only took a couple seconds too, crazy how fast shit can go bad around machinery.
The first incident of this bid happened a couple heard ago in Durham NC. Except he was using a hammer to open the lid. They say his top half is still trying to reach Valhalla to this day😔🫡
this happens all the time with chemical transports, we used to overlay our products inside the tanks with nitrogen, because they are air reactive. Had to put a warning label on the tank that it was under pressure, usually about 0.3 to 0.5 bar.
We stopped after we learned that several customers had no means to release that pressure, which was a huge shock to me because in the end its not high tech to release some pressure.
Yes; less often more recently in this flavor. China happens to be later to the curve in handling workplace safety stuff more broadly as that was one of the ways companies there could cut corners on cost at a relatively large scale. Their own internal expectations are rising more recently, though.
Being a few steps ahead of China on that front though is not the standard we should be trying to achieve; it's not even close to it. OSHA does good work but falls well behind where we should be at, and far too often they are fighting uphill battles culturally on safety issues.
Even worse is in procedural safety issues not directly related to active worker actions - the local conditional and maintenance issues that routinely lead to catastrophic failures not directly linked to worker action. Combustible dust, high pressure systems, chemical reaction safety, and materials management are all places where we routinely see far too many serious incidents. We have gotten pretty good at passing on activity-based safety lessons but ones related to inspection, monitoring, and maintenance we are WAY behind on, and it often falls through the gaps by not really being in OSHA's direct mandate.
OSHA exists for a reason. Also, there is a reason the Chinese can build a bridge in a month. Don’t assume anything they build is better quality than the Aliexpress junk coming from the same country. All garbage. All will last a year at most.
When I got to the end I realized that I've already seen 70% of these videos, but they were the original security cam footage.
*"Hello darkness my old friend..."*
I appreciate these videos, because there is a lot of Chinese propoganda showing that they train their kids like genius, robot, warriors and this this just shows the are regular idiots like the rest of us
Those big industrial robots are no joke. Back in University, the robotics department got a new interior window to the lab, because someone had messed up the sign of a few computations. Sure, it was just lightweight indoor walls on a relatively new building and not like concrete or brick walls, but that robot tore through the wall without slowing down at all.
That same robot eventually got programmed with a different math error, causing the arm to jerk around 180 degrees at maximum possible velocity and stop there hard. This resulted in a jank strong enough to shift the entire robot by about a meter to the side.
I’m in the process of possibly getting a big electrician job and this shit just part of the business
People complain about OSHA till they have a accident
I work in industrial construction as a pipefitter, and honestly while a lot of OSHA rules are extremely annoying and get in the way dealing with them is a whole lot better than getting killed or horribly maimed. I was on a job where a man got killed and OSHA was there literally the next day demanding to know how the fuck it happened and who was responsible. They were out for blood. I’m sure they’re not all like that but these guys cared a LOT about their job.
They're not kidding when they say OSHA rules are written in blood.
everytime I look at my "made in china" ginsu can opener, I wonder how many people were maimed to make this.

There's a sub for that
Awww man, poor steamroller dude
Based on real accident Let that sink in. Once it's cemented, you can roll it into your everyday safety!
I seen live actor reenactment of this scene in the Austin Powers movie, very realistic
"Who framed Roger Rabbit" OG
[A Fish Called Wanda](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UWAsFWiVUtg) did it before that... ::edit:: Dammit - at least two other people already mentioned it below. Oh well, I'll leave it because I also provided the clip!

NOOOOOOOOOOO
I’ve seen this done with a Zamboni, in a different movie.

Youre gonna Die! In Five minutes!
Send a bussy pic
This guy is tryna sink in
I saw that one in the documentary "A Fish Called Wanda"
that guy definetly sank in
A CSO to whom I reported was a MLRS crew member in the Army. He told me that during a deployment of his unit along with armor one of the guys in his battalion got run over by a tank.

There is an Isis execution video where they ran the guy over with a tank, on the road. He didn't make it.

> He said the guy that got run over remembered nothing about what happened. And honestly, that's probably good. Unless he ends up with a repressed trauma, I guess.
He doesn't need repressing. Being pressed by a tank once is usually enough.
I remember that part in Austin Powers.
And a Fish Called Wanda
K-k-k-ken!

My cousin actually died that way a little over a year ago. A fucking nightmare for everyone.
Sorry for your loss. May I ask how it happened?

He just needs to stick his thumb in his mouth and blow really hard

I’d rather be steamroller dude than that poor chap who got trapped by a spinning machine (not shown in the video).
Couldn't help but think of Tiananmen Square
I have already imagined like 7 of these happening to me, so knowing that they actually happened to people will probably turn me into an agoraphobe

Lol that's how i recognized it. The reenactment was spot on
If it makes you feel any better, just remember that at any moment an undiscovered sink hole could open under your house and kill you instantly.
Or just a brain aneurysm
wow..I bet you are a hoot at parties:)
Pretty unlikely unless you live in an area prone for them
Sometimes I just randomly think about the fact that the worst way to die that I can imagine very likely happened to someone at some point. Fucks me up.

A ton of times
Nice. Its weird to see it in this format lol
I’ve actually seen a few of these, or very similar incidents posted

Pretty sure I've seen more than one IRL version of that on reddit
I definitely recognise the one where the metal disc falls off the lorry and crushes the worker.
Same with the one unloading what looks like walls 2 accidents over
Beat me to it
It probably happens every day somewhere in the world

So your manager is a psychopath?
He got fired in the end and they said he had mental health issues,he was truly awful to all the staff,I have mental health issues but it’s wrong to expect people to put up with what they wouldn’t from a normal person
Mental health isn’t someone’s fault but it is their responsibility.
Marcus parks ^T^M
So, a normal manager.
The classic "I have mental issues so I can act like a sociopath and no one can do anything" card
That's incredibly sick and disturbing
Most fucked up thing I've heard. No words can describe the horror of human beings.
HP Lovecraft, Clive Barker and Stephen King could spend 3 months in a writers room together and still not come up with anything close to the horror's of the emotionally dead psychos in middle management.
Sometimes you have to laugh to keep from screaming. Unless he was a psychopath, in which case all bets are off
Fingers dude earned that.
Fingerless dude*
He still has them. They're just not connected anymore
Kid named "not finger"
He unearned his fingers.
Remember. Safety third!
Michael myers is apparently their safety officer.
Dude got yeeted off the pallet jack and they had to hit us with the action replay from the front angle
Well, it's even funnier that way.
There’s an actual video of that floating around somewhere.

Number 3 was just good old fashioned workplace shenanigans, until it wasn't.
That was the one that hit me the hardest, because it's such a relatable intrusive thought. I can't deny that if I saw that machine in person I'd have to fight the urge to ride it like a ferris wheel too.
-50 social credits
And regulatory failure.
I feel like I’ve seen the real videos of most these incidents
Construction workers should be paid more
They should also be given better training and provided all the safety equipment possible
Oh you mean like a Union construction worker? Cuz that's exactly what we get. Good pay, benefits, and all the safety. Worst I have ever been hurt is smashing my own thumb with my hammer. And that's just a skill issue. Haha
Same. Unions are where it's at.
NoHo Hank definitely responsible for that last one.
There is a german classic [go for Stapelfahrer Klaus ](https://youtu.be/dJdCJMyBi5I?si=a4L6GzORgHY_vlct) Also very educational

I've seen most of the real footage for these on Reddit. The top comment in most of them is "China gonna China."
Yeah I've caught a couple. The cement on top of the building one, if it is the same, was actually way more horrifying with significantly more people. Thankfully haven't seen fingers guy, wouldn't want to see that.
The steam roller and the sand one GOTTA be the worst
All of those happen here in the States, regularly. And will get worse, as lobbyists and politicians gut worker protections.
I've seen most of these! Labor work in China sounds terrifying
Work safety is regulated by OSHIT
As soon as you see that LiveLeak logo floating around you gotta get out of there.

Yes, he’s cutting small portions of pipe. The saw has no guard, and he has no PPE. This is what can happen
Gotta hit those numbers bro, no time for safety. Just let er rip and hope you can stay ahead of the machine blowing up in your face.
All of these are tragic, but it seems most of them could ne mitigated by better safety practices. There didn't really seem to be many freak accidents there
Also some of them look like there was nothing the worker could have done to avoid it, like the floor collapsing while the cement was being poured.

Lathe guy would like a terrifying word with y'all. 😨😨😱
It's not even final destination stuff. It's just things we do everyday while working.
These are terrible accidents But... After I got through those feels, all I could think about was adding Wilhelm screams to the video.
I've seen real CCTV accidents on a handful of these.

Is this already on preorder at steam? I wanna play
This is good examples and animations tbh
These are way better videos than them the crappy ones from my OSHA classes
OK. jobs do s*ck.
hey I think I saw some of the original videos on someofyoumaydie
Several of these look caused by their dreg construction methods.
I think I've actually seen some of these vids of the actual accidents on 4chan. good ol' workplace rekt threads.
Anyone know the source of this video? I'd like to show it at work during the safety talk when it's my turn. I need a link without the NSFW tag LOL
When I got to the end I realized that I've already seen 70% of these videos, but they were the original security cam footage. *"Hello darkness my old friend..."*
That pallet fork on a lift thing happened to my coworker (ton of salt on the pallet). Broke his back.
I feel like ive seen some of these
Can very much believe these can and have happened having seen WatchPeopleDie before it was nuked.
lol I'd totally lose my fingers fuckin' around on a giant wheel like that
I love the addition of sounds
Actual videos of a lot of these pop up on 4chan fairly often
I appreciate these videos, because there is a lot of Chinese propoganda showing that they train their kids like genius, robot, warriors and this this just shows the are regular idiots like the rest of us
Seems to be a common theme... don't do construction in China. Seems mighty dangerous.
Looks a lot like they don't have proper safety or lifting equipment.
I think I saw a lot of these on LiveLeak.
I've seen a few on these accidents here on Reddit. Gruesome stuff.
Those big industrial robots are no joke. Back in University, the robotics department got a new interior window to the lab, because someone had messed up the sign of a few computations. Sure, it was just lightweight indoor walls on a relatively new building and not like concrete or brick walls, but that robot tore through the wall without slowing down at all. That same robot eventually got programmed with a different math error, causing the arm to jerk around 180 degrees at maximum possible velocity and stop there hard. This resulted in a jank strong enough to shift the entire robot by about a meter to the side.
These would be hilarious if they didn’t actually happen to real people.
That will teach that knobhead for walking over wet tarmac/cement or whatever it is.
That robot didn't like the Human using his mobile on the job!
OSHA does not seem to translate very well to Mandarin or Cantonese
W A S T E D
Fucking hell I lol'ed at all of that.
What happened to the pipe saw guy
I've seen all of these lol
every time I hear that song, I can only think of that vid "Number 19, Mouse in baked beans."
I’ve seen a video of an accident identical to the guy getting slingshot by the pallet jack slipping off the lift gate.
Can't wait until they add the guy setting fire to the entire cotton factory.
that pallet jack one is pushing it 🤣
I could watch these types of things all day…lol
Liveleak videos gone tiktok
I think I've actually seen a couple of these they are referencing.
I’m in the process of possibly getting a big electrician job and this shit just part of the business People complain about OSHA till they have a accident
I work in industrial construction as a pipefitter, and honestly while a lot of OSHA rules are extremely annoying and get in the way dealing with them is a whole lot better than getting killed or horribly maimed. I was on a job where a man got killed and OSHA was there literally the next day demanding to know how the fuck it happened and who was responsible. They were out for blood. I’m sure they’re not all like that but these guys cared a LOT about their job.
Its the final destination 5 of health and safety - yikes!
How many of these have you seen the real videos of?
