Hi there! Thank you for your submission to r/TerrifyingAsFuck, but unfortunately, we've had to remove it for the following reason:
**Please do not post extreme gore or death on camera.**
If you have any questions or think we made a mistake, [please message the moderators](https://www.reddit.com/message/compose?to=%2Fr%2FTerrifyingAsFuck&subject=My%20post%20was%20removed!&message=My%20%5Bpost%5D(insert%20post%20link%20here)%20was%20removed%2C%20could%20you%20please%20take%20a%20look%3F) with a link to your post and we'll take a look.
I find it scary that even after watching this several times, the amount of mass involved still seems so abstract that I find myself wondering if I wouldn't have had the exact same impulse to try to stop it.
ugh this is why i feel so bad for him. i get it was *his fault*.. but he just wasn’t thinking. it was a quick, unfortunate, life-ending, reaction. such a horrible way to go & to lose someone.
may he rest in peace & his family find it.
It's true. I've done things in an instant before thinking and then two seconds later yelled at myself. Why the fuck did I just do that! It's like I have an immediate lizard brain making decisions but it goes away really fast.
Like trying to catch a falling knife. Experienced chefs know that a falling knife has no handle (i.e. don't try to grab it) but accidents are still fairly common as reflexes in the moment overwhelm trained judgement.
When i have to do knife attack self defense training we use these dummy knives and it’s you and a partner taking turns being the attacker with the knife. When it’s time to switch it up, we ALWAYS drop the knife to the ground rather than hand the knife to our partner. If you hand it to them, your brain locks that in as muscle memory.
There was a guy attacked with a knife in the field and he successfully got the knife away from the other guy. He then handed it right back to him because his brain did what he’d always done.
it's ghastly how a normal reaction can get you killed. You have to unlearn instincts like this or your subconscious mind will get you crushed.
My wife and I own rescue horses, and prior to being here I had zero experience. There were a few times where I reacted as though the creature in front of me was a small dog, trying to grab a lead line or halter to stop it. Mercifully I didn't break any fingers but I was quickly humbled and saw first-hand how a simple reaction without thought can be life-changing.
Normal reactions can get you killed is so true and indicative of how the design of our organism, psychologically and physically, presumably from thousands generations of ancestors, is maladaptive to the modern world in lots of ways. It's true across a ton of subjects, especially when you consider that it isn't always an accident. Many groups in the world take advantage of certain maladaptions and I think about it a lot.
I use to work with coils and almost got into a fistfight with a guy because he would set coils on the ground next to the mandrel NOT on a coil mat.
It was great that happened because my complaints to management went no where and the interview with HR and corporate didn't go as well for management.
He was prepping his next runs so he wouldn't have to go get coils out of the rack and could just cut off, remove the old one and pop up the new one and get things going then put back the old coil.
We didn't have the space for a lot of coils mats and they were always taken by overordering coils. This guy just figured he would put his coils on the flat ground all the time and I was the only one with a problem.
I told management, if he or someone bumps that with a lift, it's going to roll right through the wall and stop when it hits cars out in the lot and they still didn't care.
Anyways, don't ever be afraid to contact OSHA. If you have to go this route, DOCUMENT EVERYTHING IN A NOTEBOOK.
Names, dates, unsafe tasks and so on. Leave no information out because they will try and fire you and this is your evidence for a retaliation claim.
I know I would without thinking.
A few years back a chair broke in the house, and we piled it up next to the front door to take it out to the trash cans. I went out to pick up some more trash bags and other things we needed in the house, and while walking in the bags brushed the pile. It started to fall, and with my too quick body reflexes tried to catch the broken chair with my foot that was in flipflops. I'm lucky I didn't break any toes, but fuck it sure looked like it.
The driver of nearby truck was smart as he knew that that thing has some serious momentum due to it's mass. You can see him running away from truck cabin.
I just think people have a much worse concept of big things than they think they do. And I don't mean really big numbers like millions or billions, but thousands or hundreds of thousands.
Like people drive down the highway at 70mph all day and in a normal car weighing 2000lbs has like 450kJ of energy which is equivalent to like 2 hand grenades.
Or that spool (were gonna make some assumptions, let's call it a 1000'x4' spool of 16 gauge steel (1/16") and we'll say it's moving at a fast walking pace) weighs probably like 10,000lbs. So that's like 12kJ of energy, or like 8.8 million ft-lbs for my American friends.
Even "small" amounts. It's impossible to have a real concept of something like that until you physically experience it.
I remember my first time handling ~1000 lbs. "Small" being less than 1 ton - I was moving a massive concert speaker while tearing down a festival. It took 4 of us to roll this thing (slightly uphill, to be fair) onto a lift to get it back in a truck. I distinctly remember thinking "wow, if this thing tips over and lands on me it would kill me" compared to just being potentially injured by every other speaker we usually handled
Knowing the thresholds between when you should try to catch a thing vs maybe shoving it in a helpful direction vs "just get the fuck out of the way" is a useful life skill.
I can confidently say it's at the very least 10 metric tons. But go upwards of 16 metric tons.
The roll looks very similar to the ones I have seen at my job at Tata steel. Based on that I estimated the above weight. Unfortunately being rolled over by such a thing is usually fatal. That's why there are so many safety precautions you need to take when handling such steel rolls. Yes, People have died at my workplace due to incidents similar to this whilst I worked there. It's sad but still very rarely happens.
If you’re like me the second time because you thought it was weird that you couldn’t see any blood and then you noticed his leg so you watched it again to try and make out how exactly his leg bend in a very wrong way
They're one flat sheet of steel rolled up. In my experience, coils the size of the one in the clip are 15k-20k lbs. A full sized coil is about 54k lbs.
The way the passenger jumped out like he expected it to crush the whole semi?! But this guy jumped right in front of it to stop it, two very different reactions
in fact, yes, it could have completely destroyed the cabin as if it were made of paper, but it didn't happen because it touched the wheel first.
There are many videos where those metal coils come off and destroy the cabin as if it were nothing.
> There are many videos where those metal coils come off and destroy the cabin as if it were nothing.
That's normally when the coil is loaded on the truck, and the truck stops suddenly. Moving that slow there's no way it would destroy the truck enough to endanger the driver. Still a wise move to get away though.
You may have read it that way but my comment was displaying my surprise at the high degree of variance in the reactions to the situation, as someone who knows nothing about the spools or their weight. Nothing to do with which was “an idiot”.
Good god...
He extended his leg right under the damm thing.
Hope he survived but knowing those coils are HEAVY i pray it was quick and instant.
Cartoonisch way to go...
From multiple sources I found. The event happened on April 17th in the Yarkon region of Israel. The man was a 30 year old worker. MDA paramedic Shir Salman said: "The worker was lying on the road in the factory where he works, after being hit on the head by a heavy object during his work at the factory. We performed medical tests on him, but unfortunately he was found with a severe head injury and no signs of life, and we had to pronounce him dead on the spot."

Always kinda weird to hear what doctors have to write in reports to be verbose and proper, because they can't just write "a 7 ton coil rolled over this man, how do you think he's doing?"
That looks like a 1000'x4' coil to me, and based on my experience they tend to weigh ~7000-15000 lbs each. But it could be some really really thick or thin sheet thats outside of that but it would be unusual.
Well 16 gauge steel is like 2.5lbs/sq-ft. Things are just a lot heavier than they seem.
Also this looks like sheet steel to me, not copper wire or anything
Yea probably. I drive a semi, but not hauling these things. Either way it goes, we are all taught to just let shit go if it falls, rolls, whatever. This guy mustve missed that memo.
His body might have withstood the weight of that coil, with severe injuries, but there's no way it rolled over his head without crushing it.
Imagine someone lying on the ground and you gently place a crushed Jeep Cherokee on his head.
It may have looked instant but I'm quite certain it didn't feel instant to the guy. He felt his leg get crushed and then everything else. It happened in less than a second but at times like that, that one second can feel very long.
He would have had enough time to process that this was the end, but surely he didn't have time to feel it? Like adrenalin and shock would have covered the 2 seconds it took... right?
I can only hope so dude. I remember when the tip of my finger got amputated. It was a split second but I remember vividly how much I panicked and suffered in that split second that seemed to take so much longer than that. The pain after that was much worse though. With him it ended right then and there, poor guy
Many people are commenting why a person would try to stop a huge mass like this. The guy probably made a mistake and was under the gun to make a decision to either try to stop his mistake or let the spool hit the truck. I'm honestly not sure what I would have done. But after seeing this video, my instincts are now a little smarter.
I know a lot of people are gonna call him stupid, but this is the kind of shit you simply don't think. You see a giant object fastly approaching, the amygdala in your brain ditches the thinking and goes into fight or flight. It's pretty much a coin toss, and his brain said fight.
I feel bad. I feel bad for the guy who did something, perhaps without thinking, and died because of a momentary mistake. I feel bad for the coworkers who witnessed it. I feel bad for the family for losing somebody.
That being said, those coils probably should've been fastened more securely.
A 35-year-old laborer identified as Yusuf K. was killed in a work accident in a factory yard on Hashalev Street in Ariel.
(https://www.documentingreality.com/forum/f166/israel-worker-crushed-killed-steel-coil-253461/)
This is why I always tell my people in safety training to just let it go. Any damage or loss is not worth your life. companies have insurance to replace it, they can't replace you.
This reaction is terrifying because we are all susceptible to this kind of thinking. The amount of videos out there of people trying to stop a rolling car prove it. We don't always do the math and just expect the item to react to our force, because we want it to. Poor guy, honestly, poor guy's family.
I always think about these things like “if i was there i hope i’d act differently, but from where i’m sitting, if a thousand pound roll of steel just rolled through my door unexpectedly at me with sprinting speed, who the hell knows what my instant reaction would be”. Sometimes accidents really are just that.
What makes this entire scene all the more morbidly tragic is that when you watch the roll of metal after it kills the man, it merely harmlessly bounces against the truck chassis without causing any obvious damage at all to it or anything else, meaning that every effort this poor man made to stop it was a gesture utterly futile and the eventual outcome wholly avoidable, had he stopped for one second to consider its trajectory and estimate the minor likelihood it would cause any damage to the truck or anyone or anything else in the yard.
So pointlessly sad a death.
Watched this a few times , I feel like I would of had tried the same thing being a bigger guy. Not that I’m strong just that I can probably feel like I could slowly stop it since it’s rolling. Lesson learned here not gonna lie.
This is faster than death by chimpanzee as they they tend to use their intelligence to brutalize people which takes time
Apparently bro here died nearly instantly as his heap popped like a pimple.
Is rather be a pimple
R.I.P
He basically died instantly, I doubt he even had time to actually register what was happening before the coil crushed his skull.
Having your face torn off by a chimpanzee however, you definitely do have time to feel it and there's a big chance it won't even kill you outright.
I feel like he probably felt the extremely excruciating pain of having his feet, knees, legs, and maybe even his hips go before the shock took him out.
Friend told me he witness an accident at his work place. When they unload glass that use for high building, each box weight 2.5 tons and one of the box fall down when they unload , a guy try to do the same like in OP clip and he was crushed. Later they litterally need to scoop him off the ground.

He may have been exceptionally intelligent - he was just wrong about this one thing, one time.
It also could simply be a case of basic instincts. No thought involved, just a reactionary action.
It's true. I've done things in an instant before thinking and then two seconds later yelled at myself. Why the fuck did I just do that! It's like I have an immediate lizard brain making decisions but it goes away really fast.
Like trying to catch a falling knife. Experienced chefs know that a falling knife has no handle (i.e. don't try to grab it) but accidents are still fairly common as reflexes in the moment overwhelm trained judgement.
I once knocked a frying pan off the stove and instinctively caught it. Got hot oil covering my hands up to past my wrist. Not fun. Not fun at all.
When i have to do knife attack self defense training we use these dummy knives and it’s you and a partner taking turns being the attacker with the knife.

I know. You always have to do a JSA: a Job Safety Analysis before doing anything. Identify the hazards and how to avoid them to do any job safely.

People seem to have a pretty bad concept of mass and energy in general.
I just think people have a much worse concept of big things than they think they do. And I don't mean really big numbers like millions or billions, but thousands or hundreds of thousands.

Steamrolled
All he had to do was let it do what it did, bump the the truck and come to a stop. Very sad.
I can confidently say it's at the very least 10 metric tons. But go upwards of 16 metric tons. The roll looks very similar to the ones I have seen at my job at Tata steel.

Hold my beer, i got this 🙈
Yeah. I fist instincts would be to protect the vehicle from damage. He ridiculously underestimated the weight of that coil..RIP
It's even worse when you rewatch it. RIP.
Why did i watch it 3 times....
Only three?
He died instantly, these weigh like 12 tons. Still very sad, since this was perhaps just a reflex to try to stop it.
No he very obviously had a full second to think "oh shit my leg this was a bad idea"
easily more than that. i drove crane and lifted these 100x a day. can get up to 30 tons. scary.
If you’re like me the second time because you thought it was weird that you couldn’t see any blood and then you noticed his leg so you watched it again to try and make out how exactly his leg bend in a very wrong way
The leg? I was giving too much focus on his head...
According to the new article sounds like his head popped: "he was found with a severe head injury and no signs of life"
Yeah I think that last little wobble of the coil is rolling over and smashing his pumpkin
Billy Corgan would be proud.
happy cake day
Damn. More like Pan-cake day💀
It geta better after the sixth
Looney Toones death
Pancake
Why did I watch 3 times wtf 😳
Flattened like a damn pancake jeeze, remember kids let objects go don't try to stop something many tons heavier than you
I think too many people have pushed cars on level surfaces. Yes, it is easy to do, but don't try to stop one by pushing once it gets going.
Don't push stop. Pull stop.
Then duck and cover
Stop, drop and roll!
or uuh... stop drop and get rolled in this case
That coil weighs several times more than any car
What are these coils containing? Metal wire I guess?
They're one flat sheet of steel rolled up. In my experience, coils the size of the one in the clip are 15k-20k lbs. A full sized coil is about 54k lbs.
i think that thing is a few cars heavy, like 4-5
15-30Ton
The way the passenger jumped out like he expected it to crush the whole semi?! But this guy jumped right in front of it to stop it, two very different reactions

One survives and the other did not. You make it sound the first guy was the idiot, but he is still alive.
You may have read it that way but my comment was displaying my surprise at the high degree of variance in the reactions to the situation, as someone who knows nothing about the spools or their weight. Nothing to do with which was “an idiot”.
Nah, I read it as more "the duality of man" than a stupidity-judging competition. But we may be trapped in a cycle, now.
No they did not, weird way to take the comment.
God damn, you can appreciate the weight of the coil the way it rocks the semi on impact.
Yup, and it barely notices him as it crushes his bones.
that coil is perfect at crushing a person god all my bones ache after watching this video.
Good god... He extended his leg right under the damm thing. Hope he survived but knowing those coils are HEAVY i pray it was quick and instant. Cartoonisch way to go...

Always kinda weird to hear what doctors have to write in reports to be verbose and proper, because they can't just write "a 7 ton coil rolled over this man, how do you think he's doing?"
What kind of coil is it? Is it actually 7 tons?
That looks like a 1000'x4' coil to me, and based on my experience they tend to weigh ~7000-15000 lbs each. But it could be some really really thick or thin sheet thats outside of that but it would be unusual.
what the hell is coiled in there to make it so heavy? just copper?
Well 16 gauge steel is like 2.5lbs/sq-ft. Things are just a lot heavier than they seem. Also this looks like sheet steel to me, not copper wire or anything
The language and it's layout in that article look like it's upsidedown.
From what i read in another group, each of those coils are about 12k-15k a piece. He most certainly did not survive.
12-15K what? Pounds? Make it metric for me my Imperial brother, how many tons
My bad, yeah pounds, so about 6 to 7.5 tons.
How much is that in dollars?
42
I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who thought of the price being what he was meaning
£12k-£15k would be about $14.8k-$18.5k.
Bout tree fiddy
Good god... that's at least twice as much as a person weighs!
Well… i cant say youre wrong.
Fucking hell, yeah that'll pop your head like a zit I imagine
Yea probably. I drive a semi, but not hauling these things. Either way it goes, we are all taught to just let shit go if it falls, rolls, whatever. This guy mustve missed that memo.
Well you can see the contents of his skull on the ground so I'm gonna go ahead and say he didn't make it.
I believe that’s his hat. You can see it fall off even before the coil run over him.
His body might have withstood the weight of that coil, with severe injuries, but there's no way it rolled over his head without crushing it. Imagine someone lying on the ground and you gently place a crushed Jeep Cherokee on his head.
Narrator: he didn’t
Acme still going hard
He got his suit pressed while he was still wearing it.
Did I just watch someone die...?
No. The video cuts off too early. He got back up and married his high school sweetheart.
Pheeww, thank god. I mean, shoes were still on so 🤷♂️
He then went to live on a farm upstate that has a ton of dogs and cats for some reason
Do they count as being on if your feet are liquidized?
If you watch it backwards he really picks himself up by his bootstraps and gets on with the job!
You did. Sorry to tell you. But it was instant
Jeeeeesus. What a way to go.
No it wasn't, he had a full second to realize his body was being crushed before it got to the vital parts of him. He definitely knew he was fucked
It may have looked instant but I'm quite certain it didn't feel instant to the guy. He felt his leg get crushed and then everything else. It happened in less than a second but at times like that, that one second can feel very long.
He would have had enough time to process that this was the end, but surely he didn't have time to feel it? Like adrenalin and shock would have covered the 2 seconds it took... right?
I can only hope so dude. I remember when the tip of my finger got amputated. It was a split second but I remember vividly how much I panicked and suffered in that split second that seemed to take so much longer than that. The pain after that was much worse though. With him it ended right then and there, poor guy
This is why we need a NSFL tag. I'm okay with seeing the occasional bit of porn in my feed but I don't want to see this shit ever.
This shit used to be contained to certain subs, but since they banned those subs it leaks everywhere else
Many people are commenting why a person would try to stop a huge mass like this. The guy probably made a mistake and was under the gun to make a decision to either try to stop his mistake or let the spool hit the truck. I'm honestly not sure what I would have done. But after seeing this video, my instincts are now a little smarter.
People die so quickly. All those hopes and dreams suddenly gone and a waste of a good breakfast.
Not a waste if it was his last. I hope it was a dank breakfast.
Yep, it's like how we easily kill insects like ants and flies without thinking anything of it. Life can just end in an instant
I know a lot of people are gonna call him stupid, but this is the kind of shit you simply don't think. You see a giant object fastly approaching, the amygdala in your brain ditches the thinking and goes into fight or flight. It's pretty much a coin toss, and his brain said fight.

Those coils normally weigh between 6 - 10 tons metric.

This is the most Looney Tunes death I have ever seen.
he dead.
I can only imagine the sounds the other guy heard before running away.
This is why I always tell my people in safety training to just let it go. Any damage or loss is not worth your life. companies have insurance to replace it, they can't replace you.
Given it rocked the whole truck at a slow speed, this guy never stood a chance.
Thise animators for Bugs Bunny did their research.
This reaction is terrifying because we are all susceptible to this kind of thinking. The amount of videos out there of people trying to stop a rolling car prove it. We don't always do the math and just expect the item to react to our force, because we want it to. Poor guy, honestly, poor guy's family.
I always think about these things like “if i was there i hope i’d act differently, but from where i’m sitting, if a thousand pound roll of steel just rolled through my door unexpectedly at me with sprinting speed, who the hell knows what my instant reaction would be”. Sometimes accidents really are just that.
How much pressure can a man's skull take?
Let's ask the hydraulic press channel!

Quite.
As Coroner, I must aver I thoroughly examined her And she's not only merely dead She's really most sincerely dead
He saved the truck from more serious damage.
What makes this entire scene all the more morbidly tragic is that when you watch the roll of metal after it kills the man, it merely harmlessly bounces against the truck chassis without causing any obvious damage at all to it or anything else, meaning that every effort this poor man made to stop it was a gesture utterly futile and the eventual outcome wholly avoidable, had he stopped for one second to consider its trajectory and estimate the minor likelihood it would cause any damage to the truck or anyone or anything else in the yard. So pointlessly sad a death.
Watched this a few times , I feel like I would of had tried the same thing being a bigger guy. Not that I’m strong just that I can probably feel like I could slowly stop it since it’s rolling. Lesson learned here not gonna lie.
Poor guy.
Not for nothing but that is the kind of back crack I need.
Between 4 and 8 tonnes there. I used to transport them. No fucking way you'd get in front of one
ohhhhh fuck what a horrible death, almost compared to dying in the hands of a chimpanzee, shit
I'd rather have that quick death than a chimp ripping me apart.
you don't fear chimpanzees enough
This is faster than death by chimpanzee as they they tend to use their intelligence to brutalize people which takes time Apparently bro here died nearly instantly as his heap popped like a pimple. Is rather be a pimple R.I.P
He basically died instantly, I doubt he even had time to actually register what was happening before the coil crushed his skull. Having your face torn off by a chimpanzee however, you definitely do have time to feel it and there's a big chance it won't even kill you outright.
Manager: "Hey, how's that new guy going today?" Foreman: "Yeah mate, he's being going Flatout, hey."
U can just about see his shoes falling off
His shoes? I was more focused on his insides.
Why would you even.....jeez so sad
How heavy would a coil like that be?
Someone said earlier 12k-15k....i guess kilogramms. So yeah, fucking heavy
I took it to mean 12,000 - 15,000 pounds.
Ok, in that case 6-7,5 tonns Still heavy as shit
(50) Damn, I didn’t know coils were this heavy, I thought they were like, 50kg.
His flat mate
Everyone else runs away.
Looks like Wile E. Coyote at the end of
Jesus Christ. I’ve never seen anyone die à la Peter Griffin. Makes you realize how fickle life is.
This is NFSL by the way.
I now fear how all the other coils are stacked on top of a hill
That poor man.
Yikes, that stinks. Poor dude. Anyone know where this happened, just curious.
They see me rollin…
flat effort
I wonder what he was thinking
Damn considering it eventually came to a stop by the truck, just feet from him, the dude was in the wrong place at the wrong time.
40,000 pound coil?
Somebody go blow into his thumb, STAT!!!
Moment of silence please. He died a hero.
I feel like he probably felt the extremely excruciating pain of having his feet, knees, legs, and maybe even his hips go before the shock took him out.
Alternative method that would solved problems with lethal injections
He would have stopped it if his footing was better :(
It's something Deadpool would do.
I cant stop imagining how it would sound
ouch
Yeah that went about how I expected it to
That's flat rolled steel.
Did his skull get squished
Fair play..that's the employee of the month right there..
How much would this coil have weighed?
I work in the steel industry - I can safely guess that’s about 20,000 pounds give or take a couple thousand. Oooof.
Friend told me he witness an accident at his work place. When they unload glass that use for high building, each box weight 2.5 tons and one of the box fall down when they unload , a guy try to do the same like in OP clip and he was crushed. Later they litterally need to scoop him off the ground.
I've seen kids literally jump in front of a tractor tire rolling down a hill, thinking they could stop the tire. This guy is one of those kids.
As you can see he lost that battle.
He looks like one of those murder outlines
why is everyone running though?
Darwinism.
Today we learned a lesson
