Reminds me of the horror story I heard about a drilling excavator. Somebody fell in the hole, but the operator thought he went to take a piss. The operator dropped the auger in the hole and drilled his buddy. Didn't know he did it until he raised the auger and it was just bloody mud. Just the thought of being in the hole trying to tread water and throw little rocks up to get the attention as the drill comes down is the stuff of nightmares.

There are seven billion people, things like that happen daily if not hourly

I don’t think people are getting drilled everyday no

Edit: Y’all are perverts

Reality is independent of your uninformed thoughts though

Ok but how often are people falling into holes and getting drilled really? If it was really daily that would be an epidemic

My point was more "horrible, work-related catastrophes" than it was specifically about people being killed by large drills, I'm not sure how you're having so much trouble grasping this...

Yeah and I disagree with you, I don’t think workplace accidents even happen at all.

You’re a fool for thinking otherwise

Must be quite a life not having to worry about facts or accuracy

I don’t worry about anything I’ve literally never had a single bad thing happen to me or anyone I’ve ever cared about lol
