Re: Work related accident resulted in death
I didn't see this mentioned yet. I believe these photos are of a female Yale student who got her hair caught in the lathe while working it alone in the lab after hours. See article: http://blog.makezine.com/archive/201...-accident.html |

Re: Work related accident resulted in death
I think these photos were posted before the lab accident. I don't think this person died of "asphyxia due to neck compression". More like "complete morsalization of the head". These photos scare the crap of me. I used to work on machines like that. |

Re: Work related accident resulted in death
Never wear loose clothes around a lathe. Ever. When I was in the 9th grade, some dipshit kid in our class got his sleeve caught. Luckily, it was just a wood lathe, with a trip-bar that stopped the machine when a body leaned against it. The kid lost a fingernail, but he shit his pants as well. Served him right.
