Accidentally welding your head in between a railing - GIF

Accidentally welding your head in between a railing. Not too shocking, since his PPE consists of a single glove.

That is why he had a grinder handy just in case he did something stupid! Too bad if he had to holler for help then the humiliation would have been multiplied.

I don't know if I would've been able to remain that calm. Realistically, I would probably look something more like this:

Actually NOT! If you look you will see that he welded this end HIGHER than the other end. He could have simply moved to the right and his head would have come out fine. He also could have just pulled on the right side, it wasn't even welded, look how it came off when he broke the left side off.

re: move a little to the right, BUT then he would have had to think, obvious not in his job description.

Well someone was making the video since the camera angle keeps moving around.

Just wait until this kid can't squeeze through the bars anymore and pulls this stunt.

That was almost me many years ago. Most of the houses in the neighborhood I grew up in had cinderblock walls around the back yards, and there was a narrow gap between two house's yards across the street; great for zipping through to the alley behind...until I got >this< much too big...ended up with scrapes front and back but I managed to get through that last time...

I knew that most cats & snakes can get through a spot if the head can but never knew a child could.
Thanks for posting & hope I never need to use the plan like that father.

thanks Jon, love it!! I wonder why that hole and not any of the other same size holes?

Using the other holes don't involve shoving a sibling out of the way...always more fun if you can show off your slick escape moves literally under their nose :-)

Judging by the quality of his weld at the other end, he probably didn’t need an angle grinder to free himself! :)

Many years ago one of the new guys in the shop installed a transmission with a PTO in a log truck, after installing the shaft for the pto he started yelling for help, I asked whats up, my head is stuck and I can't get out. I rolled under on my creeper and had a good laugh, so I asked how did that happen, so how about unbolting one end to release your head, he survived all the shop jokes.

By then, his head size will have increased preventing pass through

Boss Akheem welded his head in the railing again. Do we delay the project or cut off his head? "HUMMM?"
