It looks like if his head hadn't been crushed he would have been OK.

Re: Driver Crushed by 33 Tons of Mdf
And you may ask yourself, "What is MDF?". "Medium-density fibreboard (MDF) is an engineered wood product made by breaking down hardwood or softwood residuals into wood fibres, often in a defibrator, combining it with wax and a resin binder, and forming panels by applying high temperature and pressure. MDF is generally denser than plywood. It is made up of separated fibres, but can be used as a building material similar in application to plywood. It is stronger and much denser than particle board. The name derives from the distinction in densities of fibreboard. Large-scale production of MDF began in the 1980s, in both North America and Europe." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medium-density_fibreboard  ·  · |
