I get a lot of these lol

new fear unlocked : midwest edition

This is how my uncle died shortly after retirement. Never liked the guy and the last thing he was bragging about was his million dollar insurance policy. Can’t make this stuff up as that’s the first thing I remembered.

This video highlights the importance of gender equality in grain silo inspections.

i worked in a livestock feed production grainery and we had no safety things like this lol

Irbil

Почему она без бронижелета? 😂

They put a woman in there so they could touch on her constantly. Usually i skip this part of the vid. 😂

Note to self. Stay away from grain elevators.

Не поняла что она делала в этом ограждении....Вроде якобы еезасасывало или что..

There was a how-to on self escape from quick sand.. Would it work the same if one found themselves in this sorta situation

I heard a distinct fart at 1:12 lol

😒 people who are afraid like this...need to either get a back bone or realize they live a very sheltered life.

This is definitely something that needs to be trained and practiced periodically, say once a year.

This took so long if your head was trapped you would die for sure

I'm in Henry County, Iowa, and somehow we get northern, southern, AND western corn rootworm! The suckers have been the bane of my garden because they don't just attack corn!! Our property is surrounded on 3 sides by commercial corn fields. Every year, these little monsters devour my ripe tomatoes (weirdly, the ones that are black/green with red), melons, beans, corn, sunflowers, and squash flowers (just the flowers on those). Finally identified the suckers today. It's 100% these guys. The last couple of years I've really struggled with plant health. Like no matter how much fertilizer i used, they just didn't really seem to take off. I got okay harvests, but my plants were small and spindly. I bet these guys were eating their roots. I'll be seeding my garden this spring with nematodes. The Hb strain kills them at the larval stage. Then I'll have plants that repel them and a bottle of neem oil and another bottle of deadbug ready for those who survive. THIS IS WAR.

Once you go in grain, you'll never surface again.

I think it is very stupid invention, total waste

This happened to my dad when he was a child. Playing in a corn silo with his sister when he got buried up to his head (i think it was being filled at the time). My grandfather somehow pulled him out by his shoulders. The greatest generation and a farmer his hands were the size of sausages. My dad is 67 and still tells that story.

Im the most amazed at the fact that this is the easiest way to pull someone out who is that little burried in grain

All us farm kids had to stand in a wheat truck while a lesson was learned upon us.

Nothing like a dive into Flax seed. Icy snot ain’t that slick and deadly.

This would probably work to remove a dead body. They won't be alive if it takes that long. Not saying i have a better solution, but this was painful to watch. Everything was best case scenario for this demo and it still looked clumsy and took too long.

If a person was stuck like this and you tried pulling them out with a winch and harness, or with a crane / telehandler / excavator or the like, i.e. using brute force to pull them out, would that work? I mean, would you be able to pull them out whole or would the grain have a strong enough hold to actually dismember the victim if you tried that?

Which Seeds

" Shake hands with danger" by Jonny cash!

Interesting no one wore a mask, drill was not rated for sparks. the guy on the drill was not qualified.

Grain bins are what’s called “confined spaces” because egress and ingress are difficult, and the environment can kill you (gases, lack of oxygen, flooding etc). It’s not about the size that makes it a confined space, it’s the environment.

How is it that "Rescue Professionals " have their fall protection harnesses on incorrectly?

Imagine if corn takes you out. Hey, I haven't seen your father lately. How's he's been? Oh he died. Oh I'm sorry to hear that. How did he pass away? Corn killed him

Can someone just f*ing explain without an essay.

Dumb

I know of someone who died in a silo where horse feed was made. Terrible.

If you're rescuing someone maybe communicate with them what's happening to and what's going to happen. She was stressed and she knew she was safe. Imagine if it was a real situation.

looks like to me that has to be practiced at least once a month

Se fosse um caso real ja tinha morrido a muito tempo ....

There's gotta be a way more efficient way to do this

I have a friend whose child passed away due to falling into their grain storage. Devastating is an understatement. I'm glad to see they have a way to rescue people.

They picked the weakest person that would never be in a silo, cleaning it out to get stuck in corn

Ah the old instant coffin.

Morecambe bay in england is known for quicksand. I met a delightful elderly couple there. They grew up there where all kids know the escape drill. Lie back flat and wiggle one leg out. Not sure if its the same in grain though.

If you to really fall in from the top of a Silo...may God have mercy on your Soul.

Seems they COULD make the panels out of lexan/polycarbonate so it would be slightly less claustrophobic?

This is a cool product but perhaps the worst demo ever.

Okay... why not use a shop vacuum? Or a wood shop dust collector? Vacuum that $hit away??

Technical rescue operator here, they did a phenomenal job. Everybody working there should feel much safer with them as coworkers

I landed on piles through the roof of silos as a kid. Never got stuck

Id def volunteer for demos like this it feels like a super fun experience. Im being absolutely serious

Just let everyone know if you sink down to your chest level. You're dead there. Ain't never going to get you out of there fast enough. I used to work in grain elevators and my job was to go inside the grain elevators while they still had grain in them and unplugged the pipes.
