A 38-year-old Thai construction worker got his leg amputated by a concrete pump truck.

 

Sawang Rojanathamsathan rescue workers rushed to a construction site in Sattahip district of Chonburi yesterday, August 21st, after being notified that one construction worker got his leg trapped in a concrete pump truck and suffered a serious injury.

 

The victim was a 38-year-old Thai man named Somwang Hasdong. His lower left leg was tightly stuck in a tiny gap in a concrete pump truck, so the rescue workers needed to extricate it and found that it had already been amputated. Somwang was then rushed to an intensive care unit at Queen Sirikit Naval Hospital for emergency assistance.

Was the flipflop okay?

Lad who works for me  lost 3  fingers  in a  work  accident  in Thailand, Burmese, never  saw a farthing from the employer, he can do the work it takes 2 Thais to do, when theyre  not  whining about how hard it is.

Well at least he still Hasdong.

I would be surprised, maybe a few supervisors. 

Saw the video of this one, quite horrific the guy was in a lot of pain, they pulled him out and then brought the bottom part of his leg out in a plastic bag!
