Chris have you done any post accident inspections for accidents involving either injuries or fatalities? I see your point of view, no disrespect when I say it is a really crappy thing to do. Over the last 20 years I have done at least 2 dozen injury accidents, amputated feet, smashed hands, broken arms and legs etc. I did 4 fatality inspections and out of those 4, two involved the operators still lying there dead, one was a decapitation that after 12 years i can still see that guys face 30 feet from his body, the other was a lady on a Model 80 Raymond that smashed her head between two overhead gaurds. Maybe thats why Im so biased when it comes to treating a person smiling standing on elevated forks, knowing how easy it is for them to be just another dead operator.
