Hope he makes it JKB. I hear of way too many accidents like this where equipment is under designed and/or appropriate safety measures are not in place in the interest of saving a buck. To be fair, I've also seen where employees have removed safety shields, etc. because they are "in the way" or don't follow safety protocols like lock out on electric when doing a "quick" repair or maintenance.
