    In my industry, graphic photos of injuries have been proven to make people more aware of the potential injury and work more carefully. I know they have made me safer.

    thank you...right on the money there...Safety is about knowing the consequences of actions, whether it be positive, or negative.

    Dream on....and you sit behind a desk all day with the only risk at work being a paper cut or stapling your tie to the desk?

    What gets me is the value some of these places put on human life. Look at the bearers they used to try to get the bulldozer on/off the truck...Snapped like matchsticks I bet. A decent steel ramp or a loading dock would have saved that poor guys life
    Makes me wonder why a roll bar wasn't fitted.


    Having had a tractor roll over, its not the most friendly experience I'd recommend. But it makes you a lot more careful/aware of the possibilities.
    It is what it is

    So are we lead to beleive that...

    1...This machine was unloaded by the 'guy' underneath?
    2...The driver of this machine, unloaded it in a forward motion, not reverse.
    3...That this machine did in fact, go beyond perpendicular? (the only way it could end up like it did)
    4... To get this machine beyond perpendicular, would be a task on it is own, you would need a crain and chains (I note those two things are present)
    5... It only squashed his head?

    A very very well orchestrated Asian OSH scene.

    That looks like a "bomb in the guys backpack scenario". If it was a crash (and I have no reason to doubt you) I'd be intererested to hear what actually happened.

    damb, we have a tralior at work like that, bever tail,(no ramps as such) they are picks of things. we havnt fallen off yet. its just bad luck for him that its brand new and they take the cab and blade off for shipping. otherwise roll over protection is compulsery. and he wouldnt have been squashed.

    I think you're right - I can't see how it could have rolled all the way over with no sign of any damage to the front or rear.

    Meh...as long as you're not a suicide bomber with Frank Spencer tendancies you should be right - hard to tell what happened, COULD be a bomb incident but with the oil, dirt and what appears to be extinguisher powder it's hard to say.
