Motorcycle Crashes Into Lane-Changing Audi RS eTron GT
Location: Duta–Ulu Kelang Expressway (DUKE) overpass
[NSFL] Woman viciously attacked by dog inside an elevator
Lesson: Be a responsible pet owner. If you know your dog is prone to aggression, keep them away from people and avoid injuries (and potential fatalities) such as this.
This happened in Colombia - a woman was tying her shoes when she was attacked by the dog, forcing her to seek refuge inside an elevator.
Instead, the dog followed her and viciously attacked her inside the elevator. When she did try to break loose when the elevator opened, the dog dragged her away.
She sustained serious injuries in the aftermath.
I also read that the dog was either hers or her boyfriend's but could not confirm.

[NSFL] Man's ejected heart still beating post motorcycle accident
Always be cautious when on the road, especially if you are a much smaller vehicle.
Although, sometimes, being cautious still causes accidents because other drivers aren't. Don't be that driver.
This sub may have saved my life today...
Went for a walk today and got caught up in an area they're doing some construction I was next to a major roadway so I couldn't use it to get to where I was going the only way I could go to get to my destination was to pass an excavator doing some work that was blocking the strip of grass where a sidewalk would normally go
I almost walked past the excavator without alerting the driver I tried whistling waving and even yelled a couple times he couldn't hear me and his partner couldn't either
I began feeling impatient and almost walked in-between the excavator and a brick wall running along the way
Before I made that silly decision I had flash backs of quite a few videos from this sub and the original sub of people being impatient and getting completely swamped by something whether it be a train or some other mechanical equipment
I immediately rethought my decision decided I didn't want anyone to learn from my experience the hard way also I didn't want to become red paste smeared to the wall
I then waited patiently until I was able to grab their attention and pass safely I don't think it would have pinned me to the wall but with one wrong step and wrong timing to at bucket definitely would have hit me
TLDR almost got smooshed then remembered things I'd seen on this sub and realized I wasn't in the rush I thought I was

Gangbangers With Poor Marksmanship

Stand directly on the chipper and push the wood down into it with your feet...brilliant!
Reupload because I didn't include a lesson.
Lesson: Don't stand on an active woodchipper. Don't stand in the path of what you are chipping. And certainly don't use your feet to facilitate said chipping.
Worker is crushed trying to hold far too much weight
Lesson: That's the incorrect way to store large panels. Never mind handling them.
The correct system is a vertical slot section where movement is limited, but everything is accessible on a lateral sliding movement. This prevents tipping.
Sadly, these workers clearly have no professional oversight running the place.
The floor is lava, real life version
Lesson: Never work in a Chinese acid factory.
Lets make an effort to keep this place open
I think a good portion of us that come to this subreddit and its predecessors do so for the educational aspect of it. There are other people who come around to make shitty jokes and disrespectful comments towards the people in these videos. Which type of people and their comments do you think is the reason these subs keep getting removed? If you picked the jokes and disrespectful comments, congratulations youre correct. Lets try to keep the jokes and comments respectful and maybe we can keep this subreddit open for a while.
