    I wish I could sometimes, Our new safety guy figured it would hammer home what could happen when you don't do a complete hazard assessment.

    The safety guy at my last job would have you in a full PPE setup while taking a dump if he could, complete with daily toilet paper safety classes.

    Slingshots, those are for women! :smile:

    We would get in air gun fights at work, anything that you could fit in the nozzle was ammo, ball and needle bearings, pop rivets and nails. Yes there were a few injury's mostly car windows

    I think he's wasting his time, and yours,if it doesn't pertain to your industry. There's stupid people doing stupid stuff everyday, that shouldn't be news to anyone.

    Just for the record, I'm a former Safety guy myself. While some of these video's offer up some good entertainment value, they do little to actually educate about safety in the work place.

    Actually there has been studies done to show the amount of Toxic gases released while taking a dump. And in some cases Fresh Air gear is required.

    In case you need some reading literature while taking a dump.

    You have that right Tom, some Safety guys are over the top.....way over.

    Steve, your in Arizona, you guys out there don't even open your eyes when pulling the trigger. That's why so many cactus have bullet holes in them. LOL

    It's a FAKE video! It was a joke vid, put out by the "Slingshot Channel" on YT!
    The guys name is Joerg Sprave, a German redneck. And if you don't believe it's fake, go to his channel, this was posted a month ago.
    I refuse to argue with idiots, because people can't tell the DIFFERENCE!
