Re: MAN SUCKED INTO PIPE
I finally saw it. Wish it had been the guy standing in front of the camera. That would have been both useful, and entertaining as well.

Re: MAN SUCKED INTO PIPE
A man who was working on a pipeline project in Taichung City and he has lost his life after he got sucked into the hole that he had just made in a water pipe on Monday. The 50-year-old man, named Z. who was working on Taiwan Water Corporation pipeline replacement project in Tanzi District when the accident occurred at around 11:30 am. The incident got recorded on video by someone who was standing above the trench, the video footage showed that Z. atop the steel pipe by using a lump of the hammer in order to knock out a 60 x 40-centimetre square piece that had been cut by a co-worker. The steel plate finally gave away and Z. lost his balance at the time by falling forward, Z. momentarily caught himself but the problem was that the force of the suction which was happening because of the vacuum in the pipe, sucked him feet-first into the pipe. The co-workers of Z. pulled Z. out of the pipe but he had lost his vital signs by the time paramedics arrived and he was later declared dead at the hospital, the Ministry of labour and other relevant agencies seems to be currently investigating the incident. The contractor has been involved in violation of the Occupational Safety and Health Law and can be fined up to NT$300,000. Taiwan Waters may be fined up to NT$150,000 due to poor supervision and management, resulting in death due to negligence, and will be liable for criminal law. That sucks for him |
