Funny thing is these don't meet ANSI Z89.1 and therefore can't be used in most workplaces

It doesn't have to be safe ... it just has to 'look' safe

[–] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 28 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, some people with clipboards and orange vests came by, and they said it's fine.

They were killed later that day from a falling I-beam that was unsecured

[–] Grass@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 year ago

that would kill you anyway...

[–] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Is it because the strength of the arch is diminished by the crease? Or because it could channel a falling sharp object into rather than away from one's skull?

[–] queermunist@lemmy.ml 11 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

That was my first thought. The only way this could be somewhat safe is if the hat aesthetic was a flimsy facade and would crumple at the slightest pressure, and underneath the facade was an actual hard hat.

[–] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 year ago

I agree, but I fear that would require a comically large exterior. Ten gallons, as it were.

Tory Bruno, CEO of ULA wears a cowboy hard hat. Clearly this is how you become rich.

Unfortunately these buffs don't stack. And the effect only works when constructing large enough engineering feats where people have to look straight up to see the whole thing.

Annie, are you okay?

[–] pseudo@jlai.lu 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I don't need the job. I need the hat.

If you wear it, they will come.

Paintball cosplay.

This did not go over well when I delivered my last eulogy, just FYI.

[–] wjrii@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If they got pissed off enough, I bet you were glad you had it.

Now that I think about it, it did a pretty good job of deflecting a flower arrangement in a glass vase.

Anyone sparing no expense to open a lab-created dinosaur park?

Crane operator.

Perfect for horse riding and cattle driving.

Honestly, now that you mention it, I 100% unironically want to see this worn in an equestrian show.

That's a job site toilet. Put it down, that's gross..!
