    Very interesting. Contrast this, however, with a pair of climbers on vertical rock. Two ropes, crack protection hardware, sometimes sleeping hammocks. Fond memories...

    nothing makes the day go by better than a short nap after lunch. Many industrial accidents happen in factories right after lunch. Most of these are in corporations that do not allow enough downtime after eating. We were doing an install in once such factory after lunch my guys all pretty much took the rest of their lunch hour to have a nap. the Factory super came over and said here in this factory the lunch break is 30 minutes why aren't your people back at work, I said very simply they do not work for you they work for me and I say they have an hour if they want it. Because I find thy will have better awareness of safety and their moral is better. He went off in a huff and walked right into a low hanging beam knocking his hard hat off, he let out a few choice expletives picked up his hard hat and continued on. I thought to myself it was a good thing he had on his hard hat or he would have been victim to one of those industrial accidents I had explained about.
    Never try to tell me it can't be done

    I had a lot of trouble watching this one all the way through.
    Really lost it when they removed the platform.

    Rather important and fortunate, with hard hat on.
    Even more so, how was the beam?
