Laundry Worker Dies After Arm Cut Off by Centrifuge
On the afternoon of Thursday (08) an employee of an industrial laundry died after his arm was cut of during a work accident . According to the first information, the 28-year-old man would have forgotten the open time machine in which a pair of jeans was leaving the centrifuge. Then the man tried to throw it back, but ended up with the arm stuck in the jeans and was sucked into the machine . Due to the severity of the injuries the victim died at the scene. The Mobile Emergency Service (SAMU) was triggered by other employees, but on arriving at the site just found the victim's death. Also according to information, the employee had only 10 days of service in the company. The owner of the Laundry said in a statement that he is deeply shaken by the event and is providing all the support necessary for the employee's family.

No tourniquet? It may have saved his life.  |

I think that's what's wrapped loosely on his arm.  Placed better and tighter, he could have survived. |

The rest of his arm is now in another time. Figure out when the jeans that came out of the machine were in style and they might find his arm.

That is a nice, clean cut. But it looks awfully painful. Hope he didn't suffer too long before he died.

I don't think death came solely as a result of blood loss due to the severed arm, but also from being flung around and knocked against hard/sharp objects on and near the machine.

Huh, that's peculiar that the loss of the limb was the cause of death. Perhaps he had an underlying heart condition or problems with blood pressure that contributed to his demise.

There is now a one-armed ghost terrorizing a mall in a pair of Bugle Boys.
