Luckily it didn’t happen but like… my hand be shaky at times and like… I wonder what is one supposed to do if they ever drop their phone in them lol

Like… do people just freeze right there be be like “FUUUUUUU”

Also what about like the gap in subways?

Or like the gap in the elevator?

Do people actually lose stuff like that?

🤔

    Slurry is scary. Half of a family my family knew when I was growing up died in a slurry pit. The dog fell in, so the father jumped in to rescue it, then the son jumped in to rescue the father

      Damn. That is awful.

      Never even so much as consider entering a slurry lagoon without a tether and protective gear.

          True. Better to have at least two - the suction from the slurry will make it hard to get you out.

          In fact, we never entered a lagoon without a second team on site, and one or more from the leadership team would almost always be there as well.

          That’s just how dangerous it is.
