the worker fell simply because he failed to use appropriate PPE while testing the geronimo line. he also forgot how the brake handle works. If he had been tied off properly he would not have fallen to his death and if he had remembered how to operate the brake properly he wouldn't of fallen. this unfortunately is a very good example of how worker inattention to detail causes fatalities in the workplace. i was accross the road from this when it happened so don't tell me i am full of shit
nothing against the person that lost his life in this who ever he may be rest in peace.... but on a seperate not you are saying we wouldnt have half the shit we do today if not for mexicans. not true... it just would cost more to have those things....
No I happen to work with alot of them and they happen to be cool easy going and hard workers and it's true if it wasn't for them nothing would get built
I hope he lived. I used to let my hands ride the Geronimo, the brakes dont last long because theyre made out of brass. One hand came down fast and hard, that was the last time it was rode. Looking back it was a dumb thing to do but I was young and stupid for letting them.
Feel sorry for the poor bastard. Shitty way to die. My Dad roughnecked back in the 50's, when he was still green they bullshitted him into riding the geronimo. They knew the brake didn't work worth shit, he didn't. He said must have been running 50mph when he hit the ground. Rolled ass over teakettle for a ways, didn't break anything. Pissed off and skinned up, but in one peice. Old school roughnecks had a twisted sense of humor lol.
It looks like a real person who must have been seriously injured or killed. Having not been there to see this, I dont know. Also, there does not seem to be an emergency that he's escaping, so using this method to leave the derrick seems unnecessary and dangerous- at least it dosnt look like an emergency from the video. It's a serious question, and I'm not trying to be a jerk.
What went wrong did he hit the break or hit a wicker was there a rag tied to the line.I would like to know.I fell sorry for ol boys kids I dont care what he Was . he`s a dead roughneck with a family .
Even if the guy was tied off, wouldn't he have just slammed into whatever the line is attached to? Seeing as he wouldn't have been able to control the brake and all...
@jhiller21 true but he wouldnt have falled 40 feet tho. he might have gotten tangled alittle in his shock line but would be alive (if he didnt die from that fall)
@Biotektan Yes it WAS but now it IS a real corpse. I'll get plenty of knee jerk responses from others but speaking from experience, Mexican oil companies are notoriously and unnecessarily dangerous.
@5136amy. i work the rigs and thank you. its the hardest job ever and the dirtiest. nice to have someone appreaciate it. but having respect for that guy is bs, he fell because of his own stupidity. be appreaciative to those of us riggers that use our heads
what a fuckin dummy!!!! who the fuck doesnt wear a safety harness with a security lanyard. serves him right to fall. even though he most likely lost his life its his fault for not wearing proper ppe. lol wonder what was going through his head as he wiped out? such a funny video
@MrChilango36 if you worked for more than peanuts, maybe you would have better safety equipment. Thats why you get no love, and the real roughnecks get real equipment, like a full body harness and not hemp string
Well no shit. this kinda shit is what wil remind me to do my harness the fuck up good. Check your connections. Its good money but im not willing to die in the name of cashola
@mongration man fuck you, you dont even know what you are fucking talking about us mexicans do this fuckin work better that yall fucking piece of white shit
@mongration man fuck you, you dont even know what you are fucking talking about us mexicans do this fuckin work better that yall fucking piece of white shit
@mongration It aint mexicans you fuckin degenerate... Watched the full video during my PEC training. This happened in the middle east. The man was alive, at least for awhile. He got medevac'd.
@mongration yea but they are worth alot more than niggers and honkies so suck it you fucking prick as bitch if it wasnt for mexicans you wouldnt have half the shit you do bitch so shut your fucking mouth thanks bitch bye!
If this needed testing, use some sand bags or if you're offshore, the man overboard dummy! Fucking horrendous way to go! Bet the pusher got fucked for this. Very sad.
This really is sad.... what a way to die man.... I'm a motorman and about got my head split open yesterday when the tongs shattered.... stay safe roughnecks.....
That's what you get for being a dumb-ass...No harness?...Who the hell rides a geronimo just for fun?...And chances are he was a first hitch worm and let his driller told him that was his initiation...That's sad, bro...
@1m4Rob What the fuck is wrong with you.... "LMFAO That guy died for sure!!!" You are a pathetic and sad human being, and I am Disgusted to be the same species as you.
Oil is overrated. So are cars for the able-bodied who can save it for the groceries
