Another in the infamous series. Personally the one which scared and scarred me personally was a poor fellow hammering in a nail of which a piece of shrapnel flew off and into his eye. Would love to see it again if anyone out there has a copy!

  • @Mistoballin They were trying to tell people, guys in particular, that they have the right to refuse unsafe work acording to the workplace safety act. But sometimes accidents like this happen because there's somebody who isn't trained properly or they want to 1up their boss and show them that they can do the job.

  • There were a couple of real funny ones. One where to guys tries to jump a trench to get to the coffee truck and another where a guy walks behind and operating backhoe with a sheet of plywood - the plywood doesn't make it....

  • How is this a PSA? He fell 2 feet!

  • i'd fucking fall too if someone was shooting lasers at me!

  • oooh!!! that must have hurt when the balsa wood ladder fell on his knee. I agree the dump truck commercial was effective. i can still see the workers hard hat getting crushed into the mud by the cement truck tire.

  • how is this scary? were people easy to scare back than or wut

  • I love the way there is a twang sound effect when the ladder hits the guys knee after he falls.

    I would love to know why these were part of regular TV advertisments. I mean I could understand if it was a training video for people just hired at a constuction site, but these would run daily and basicly make kids never want a thing to do with the consturction industry (espically the shrapnel one, I recall that)

  • I agree with the fact that these ads were scary. I also remeber the spot where the worker was hammering and the piece of shrapnel flew into his eye. There also was the spot where a worker left a workbench while a dump truck was backing up and the worker was run over. Another one involved power lines.

    Seeing these as a kid did not make me want to enter into a career in construction.
