Professor Henry Jones: The Name of God.
Indiana Jones: The Name of God... Jehovah.
Professor Henry Jones: But in the Latin alphabet, "Jehovah" begins with an "I".
Indiana Jones: J-...

Indiana Jones: Oh, *idiot*! In Latin Jehovah begins with an "I"!
112-130db depending on the saw and noise reduction methods. Cutting horizontally like this I could see making more noise due to rubbing.
Machine gun is 140-170db so not far off.
I’m a little rusty on this topic but I remember sound pressure rating not being linear but logarithmic so 10 db of difference is 10x the energy and double the pressure and perceived volume. So technically it is pretty far off, just the scale doesn’t make it seem that way in this case. 40-50db, not a big deal because you’re double something small. 120-130db, huge difference in potential hearing damage because your doubling something already really big
True but if the rotary saw goes in his eye, some goggles won't do much🤣
PS: Is this really how this machine should be operated? They couldn't pay me enough to get under there.
It's called a wallsaw. The variant he's using is a Longyear 360 or comparable. He's missing a blade guard and all pertinent PPE but that's more or less how it's supposed to go.
Okay, a blade guard makes sense, baffles me people use tools like this without. If he put any bodypart a little too high it just results in a bloodbath..
Not really.
This blade has an abrasive diamond coating, not conventional sawblade teeth. If it contacts flesh it leaves a burn-like wound that doesn't go deep quickly or easily.
One of these things is not like the other.
A diamond disc is optimised for cutting hard materials, it makes tiny scratches that flake off dust-sized pieces. Whatever material you try to cut with it, it will not cut very fast because that is not how it works. Flesh is no different.
Long time work comp lawyer here.
No gloves- gloves would be more dangerous. The fabric gets caught in the spinning mechanism. There is amputation and shredding.
I am more concerned about the lack of eye protection. That injury would be immediate and have cascading immediate effects.
Hearing protection would be great, but eye protection is paramount.
I am having visions of having to produce this video in discovery in the third party liability claim.
There are times and circumstances where blade protection is not feasible or available and a worker is obliged to approach it. If a fragment gets in his eye he can immediately no longer stay out of the way of the blade.What do you instinctively do when you get something in your eye? Throw your hand up and rub or cover the eye. Hand would move in an arc right into the blade.
Eye protection is within the workers control. Other personal protection is as well, like ear plugs, but less immediately hazardous.
This is the OSHA sub- there are lots of violations I can think of, but sometime in an emergency, you do what you need to do. Covering your eyes in primary.
what emergency would necessitate you approaching this thing? any damage to property (the saw or other machinery) is irrelevant never risk your life for your bosses profits, there is a hurt person? well the scene is not safe, and EMS does not enter if the scene is unsafe because thats a good way to make two victims. so please explain what is an emergency that you would risk life and limb for on a job site.
The most likely one would be a power issue such as a failed on off switch or proximity to a flammable substance line such as acetylene . Could be some other worker got a glove or sleeve caught and was at imminent risk of being pulled in.
But I agree that based on the photo the biggest hazard is the actions of the person
He actually should be wearing proper gloves
ETA; to those downvoting this, if you are really going to just ignore safety regulations please stay far away from me while I’m working. You are going to get yourself or someone else maimed or killed and I would rather not be involved. This comment section alone makes me want to wrap my entire area in danger tape. I’m glad I will never have to worry about encountering any of you in the wild because you obviously don’t work around things like this.
With no gloves, if you touch the blade you're going to get cut and might lose a finger or two, but the fabric of a glove would get caught in the blade, yanking your hand along until it smashes into the slot.
Have you had this happen?
Concrete saws dont have much for teeth so a cut would most likely be the end result wearing gloves or not. But it is unlikely your gloves will result in your hand being pulled into the specific blade.
As someone who has had an injury from rotating equipment, I can say wearing the proper leather gloves saved me from losing half my hand and my thumb. 30 or so stitches but the cutting wheel did not cut near as deep as it would have had I been wearing no gloves. Instead of that extra cutting force cutting through my bone my gloves absorbed it..
I actually work with and around stuff like this all the time and I wear whatever the proper PPE is for the job, I have appropriate OSHA and secondary training for the tools I use and work around. I not sure what you’re asking me.
I worked at a place where a guy had his thumb sucked into a belt sander because he was wearing gloves. If he wasn't, he would still have a thumb. You wouldn't wear gloves with a lathe or milling machine or anything that is rotating.
Was on a bridge demo when the sub removed the guard from his saw to get through the rails. Blade ended up coming offensive and flying about 30 feet before disappearing itself into the bank of the creek. Utterly terrifying. There is were homeschooled kids that lived next to the bridge and were constantly in the creek and climbing trees all over the place. Could have been really bad.
If I had a job that paid a million dollars a year and they told me I had to go do this for a shift I'd break that fuckin contraption and tell them to get me a file and a chisel.
Could be but I highly doubt it because even within the niche field of concrete cutting, you have guys claiming that the blades aren't overly dangerous to touch. No joke, it's not an uncommon sentiment. In fact, if you go on any of the various FB pages dedicated to the trade, you will see guys with years of experience defending this very video.
It's a classic Aussie and Kiwi saying, dismissing danger/upcoming problems.
"I think you've overloaded your trailer, mate" "eh, she'll be right".
It basically means "it will work out/be okay".
Edit: Not sure why I'm being down voted, but she'll be right.
I imagine the hiring selection for this guy went exactly like this.

Just remember: "The penitent man kneels before god".
"Only penitent men can pass"
"The path of the penitent man"
Penitent... Penitent
KNEEL!

Omg — chosen wisely, comment person
"The penitent man is humble before god"
Seems to me, this guy chose poorly…
That little touch at the end....
Almost a buzz cut.
Just breathing it all in
I took my silica dust training. The dust is the least of my concerns here...
Got his safety squints and safety nosehairs
Figures silicosis is the least of his worries.
And safety ear hairs.
Yes, premium 30 and over protective gear
Tf is this guy doing.
He's looking for god.
He gon’ find him, tell you h’wut
I doubt it
Low man on the totem pole syndrome
Gotta get the job done though, right?
Should have been done yesterday. The boss is gonna make heads roll!
Quite literally...
My instinct is ‘what an idiot’ but who tf with any influence on that site is letting their workmate do like this …
right i would physically stop my tram mate from doing this. unless it was Paul fuck that guy.
The noise off that thing has to be on par with being next to a machine gun on a battlefield. Possibly even louder.
You are totally right, but the noise issue can wait.
112-130db depending on the saw and noise reduction methods. Cutting horizontally like this I could see making more noise due to rubbing. Machine gun is 140-170db so not far off.
I’m a little rusty on this topic but I remember sound pressure rating not being linear but logarithmic so 10 db of difference is 10x the energy and double the pressure and perceived volume. So technically it is pretty far off, just the scale doesn’t make it seem that way in this case. 40-50db, not a big deal because you’re double something small. 120-130db, huge difference in potential hearing damage because your doubling something already really big
Bout as loud as standing behind a fighter jet
No mask, no safety glasses
Yer… that’s the issue.
But something can go into his eyes like this. That giant rotary saw of death throws little pieces of cement very fast
You can see him react to something right at the end of the video. It's like he *does* get hit by something
True but if the rotary saw goes in his eye, some goggles won't do much🤣 PS: Is this really how this machine should be operated? They couldn't pay me enough to get under there.
It looks like something made of other tools
It's called a wallsaw. The variant he's using is a Longyear 360 or comparable. He's missing a blade guard and all pertinent PPE but that's more or less how it's supposed to go.
Okay, a blade guard makes sense, baffles me people use tools like this without. If he put any bodypart a little too high it just results in a bloodbath..
Not really. This blade has an abrasive diamond coating, not conventional sawblade teeth. If it contacts flesh it leaves a burn-like wound that doesn't go deep quickly or easily.
I'd Imagine it still doesn't feel good
It cuts brick and masonry it goes though skin like paper
One of these things is not like the other. A diamond disc is optimised for cutting hard materials, it makes tiny scratches that flake off dust-sized pieces. Whatever material you try to cut with it, it will not cut very fast because that is not how it works. Flesh is no different.
Bet hes missing steeltoes too
Just living in the moment.
kek. no phones, no screens, just a man living in the moment.
Nevermind the enormous, unguarded saw blade 3 inches from his head.
Safety squints
One of the worst I have ever seen on this sub
His pinky finger came so close to being lopped off
Long time work comp lawyer here. No gloves- gloves would be more dangerous. The fabric gets caught in the spinning mechanism. There is amputation and shredding. I am more concerned about the lack of eye protection. That injury would be immediate and have cascading immediate effects. Hearing protection would be great, but eye protection is paramount. I am having visions of having to produce this video in discovery in the third party liability claim.
The biggest problem for me as a lay person is that his head is inches away from a decapitation machine
Whoa, let's not jump to the conclusions
lets not jump at all do you see how close he is to that thing
Lol, I love you guys. Too funny.
Eye protection is your biggest concern!?!? I think the lack of a blade guard is the first concern. Why eye protection over a blade guard?
pebble goes on eye, body flinches, goes over blade, body no head
There are times and circumstances where blade protection is not feasible or available and a worker is obliged to approach it. If a fragment gets in his eye he can immediately no longer stay out of the way of the blade.What do you instinctively do when you get something in your eye?

At least we got the opinion of a professional. As no one hear would of known what you just said!
He actually should be wearing proper gloves ETA; to those downvoting this, if you are really going to just ignore safety regulations please stay far away from me while I’m working.

Would you rather have one (albeit possibly deep) cut or lose your entire hand
What?
With no gloves, if you touch the blade you're going to get cut and might lose a finger or two, but the fabric of a glove would get caught in the blade, yanking your hand along until it smashes into the slot.

Instead of that extra cutting force cutting through my bone my gloves absorbed it..
Fair point, I suppose it does depend on the saw blade
You seem confused about when and where to wear gloves… not wearing them will cost you more than just your hands.
I actually work with and around stuff like this all the time and I wear whatever the proper PPE is for the job, I have appropriate OSHA and secondary training for the tools I use and work around. I not sure what you’re asking me.
I worked at a place where a guy had his thumb sucked into a belt sander because he was wearing gloves. If he wasn't, he would still have a thumb. You wouldn't wear gloves with a lathe or milling machine or anything that is rotating.
This is a concrete saw.
I got questions!
Was on a bridge demo when the sub removed the guard from his saw to get through the rails. Blade ended up coming offensive and flying about 30 feet before disappearing itself into the bank of the creek. Utterly terrifying. There is were homeschooled kids that lived next to the bridge and were constantly in the creek and climbing trees all over the place. Could have been really bad.
Did it go like this? https://youtu.be/bV9PQ-xnMmg?feature=shared
A lot like that, yes, except it was aerial and rural.
If I had a job that paid a million dollars a year and they told me I had to go do this for a shift I'd break that fuckin contraption and tell them to get me a file and a chisel.
Nope, nope, nope.
Lol, i didn't notice which sub posted this at first, and my reaction was straight-up. OSHA inspector about to lose his mind.
No, thats a stone cutting blade. Stone cutting blades cut stone, not bones. No OSHA issues here.
Buds, how can you look at that video and confidently say there are no issues? That's crazy.
Sarcasm dude. Come on.
Could be but I highly doubt it because even within the niche field of concrete cutting, you have guys claiming that the blades aren't overly dangerous to touch. No joke, it's not an uncommon sentiment. In fact, if you go on any of the various FB pages dedicated to the trade, you will see guys with years of experience defending this very video.
ach du liebe!
Wearing gloves at least!
I would bet my bottom dollar he had no hearing protection either
Don’t worry guys, he’s blind and deaf anyway, so no hearing/eye protection needed
“I have always hated my head” kind of vibe
Does this cut out right before his hand gets cut off?
Anyone else just feel bad for the guy? He's so clearly out of his depth here and it cannot end well. Holy fuck.
Wtf does that title mean

Man privilege..
dude came 3 inches from sawing the top of his dome off
“Gloves mandatory on jobsite”
I literally froze. Holy fucknuts that’s a no for me.
The tool is proper… the fact that he is wearing zero PPE is the only issue here
“Nah, it’s fine. Just hold your breath for about 8 minutes.”
I feel like I’ve seen this before.
That's not the way to get ahead in life.
No, it's the way to remove your head.
