Well this is really dangerous, much more than the "Dangerous metalworking factory" of this post: https://www.homemadetools.net/forum/...271#post116172

Hard to watch, one small hiccup with the feed and he could loose his legs.

It's a trip going into a steel mill. I'll never forget my first sighting of a utility vehicle boogieing between buildings pulling a cart holding a red hot crucible containing tons of molten steel.

That guy has clearly done this a lot. He makes it almost look easy. I really want to know exactly how one goes about doing that the first time without getting gravely injured of killed...
