My first thought is, "how many guys complained about getting their junk caught in the zipper before the manufacturer decided to make a warning label?"

 Probably in poor taste, but I was thinking of I get sucked out of the plane. I can wrap my new 25oz vest around my head to save me from the trauma.

As my products liability professor put it, "how much do you think third degree burns on your genitals are worth?"

When a ladle doesn't self open it is lanced open . A lance is just that, a disposable six foot hollow metal tube . Oxygen fills the lance controlled by the operator through a ball valve.Using a torch the oxygen fed lance is lit off. The operator lit off the lance ran it into the ladle's bore and immediately there was a loud explosion. I looked at the casting deck as the dust cleared and thought "holy shit! that guys pants were blown off!" What I thought was tatters of cloth was his skin. The line attached to the lance had a small hole in it and oxygen had been pooling in his pant leg. He lanced the ladle open, a spark jumped off the steel and boom! he was flayed from his boot tops to his shirt hem.

Holy shit. Did he live? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk yes, he did. He was a young guy that makes a difference they sent him up to a Boston hospital burn unit 
 When he was out of the hospital & on the mend he said he had to "not think about sex" because hanging with his girlfriend could cause him serious pain…as if thinking has anything to do with it. I couldn't stop laughing. In my defense neither could he.
