On Wednesday, surveillance footage captured the moment that a 10-meter-high section of scaffolding, which was carrying three workers, suddenly toppled down in Mianyang city in southwest China’s Sichuan Province.  Seconds after the collapse, some passersby ran to the scene to rescue the workers trapped underneath. More than 20 people eventually joined in to help with…...

A few weeks back, the “Video of the Week” was an older NH3 training video which contained some footage showing a test where NH3 vapor was being ignited out in an open field but as soon as the torch was removed the flames went away.  But if we have NH3 confined within a room/structure, the…...

WARNING!  Viewer Discretion is STRONGLY ADVISED.  This is NOT the forklift video that has gone viral  which shows the lady being crushed after she attempted to be a counter weight.  This video shows us how speed and lack of seatbelt leads to tip-over fatality….

This weeks video is all about “seeing is believing”!  The video is from a series of training videos made back in 1947 for the US War Department to training workers in the factories making war products.  These videos may be old, but they are timeless as the chemistry of flammable liquids and gases have NOT…...

WARNING!  Viewer Discretion is advised.  This week’s video shows a worker climbing a fixed ladder while holding onto blueprints (NO 3-point contact with ladder).  As he climbs he falls from the ladder to a platform.  The platform has a top rail, but does NOT have a mid-rail, allowing the worker to fall from the platform…...

This week’s video is a bit dated, but it is an EXCELLENT video for those who work around Anhydrous Ammonia (NH3).  It contains video showing just how hard it is to ignite NH3 outside, although there are flaws with their “testing methods”.  And it also contains scenes that may be upsetting to some, as it…...

This week’s video is one EVERY worker who transfers flammable and/or combustible liquids MUST see (note the best footage begins at the 2-minute part).  Of course the Battalion Chief is doing everything right (actually WRONG from a safety perspective) to get the gasoline vapors to ignite.  Here are a few things to consider when watching…...

WARNING!  Viewer discretion is advised.  This video veers off my typical industrial safety topic, but it is one that every safety professional and emergency responder needs to see AND HEAR.  It is a video that will haunt you, SO TAKE MY ADVISORY SERIOUSLY, but I do think that as painful as it may be, it…...

MANY THANKS to Matt Bunner, Safety Professional Extraordinaire, for sharing this video with us.  I always knew it could happen and here we see it happening.  The bolt turns in one direction and the nut turns in the other.  SAFETY PINS MATTER!… Membership Required You must be a member to access this content.View Membership LevelsAlready...
