Australian mining company uses graphic demonstration to drive home safety message.
If you are shocked or offended by fruit-based carnage, look away now.
In an attempt to underline the importance of securing tools while working at height, Australian mining company Bechtel drafted in a poor, unsuspecting volunteer.
Dan the Watermelon thought he was destined to see out his days as a part of a delicious fruit salad. Instead, he was robbed of his birth right, merely to show what could happen to a worker hit on the head by a falling object. And, even though he was provided with a hard hat, the outcome was all too inevitable.
So let us all remember Dan. He gave his life to make us all just a bit safer.
