He who smelt it, dealt it.

Browse the Industrial section on watchpeopledie and you'll be surprised at how often molten metal gets dumped on the workers.

It wouldn't be the worst way to go.

Driving the overhead smelter cauldron crane seems like a pretty easy job. As soon as it started I prognosticated that the nigger would drive off without releasing the hopper. Everyone is a retard.

As dramatic as it looks it's not that big of a deal provided nobody or anything gets cooked...after the material cools down it's scraped up with a track dozer or excavator.

It just seems like there would be a common sense failsafe that if the crane was not disconnected from the pot that there would be something that prevented the crane from moving. When it's just such an obvious failure.

Me and how far do you think that flowing aluminum reached into the side hallways and doors. How many people got their legs burned off at the ankles and just fell right into it. I mean there were at least three guys running around and it looked like that aluminum was enough volume to go all the way down the halls and into the doors and even if it didn't reach into your office having all that burning aluminum on the floor burning everything and releasing all that toxic smoke and you can't run down the hallway to get away from it. Plus the heat in the room probably Rose to 2 or 300° in the air in seconds so you probably just roasted. Man that's just horrible.
