Norvid Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Cleaning all electric machines is always done with the not only power off, but electrical cord plugged off the wall. It seems prevention and logic is not here on friendly terms with people like drivers, train's engineers, or maintenance crew and now meat grinders. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Norton Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 I rarely read about scientists getting their hands caught in a meat grinder. Wonder why that is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most people are only born with 8 fingers. Those 2 shorter stubby ones - they are called thumbs 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gandtee Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 I am surprised that nobody has said that he police acted on a 'tip off'. I hope the stupid women recovers quickly so that she doesn't forget to keep her hand in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balo Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 What do you expect in a country where safety is not a word in the Thai dictionary ? No helmets, kids driving to school, no education etc. The lady will probably be back cleaning with 4 fingers less, and the machine still switched on.
