The mechanic said he heard a buzzing noise and then noticed a brilliant blue flame coming from all the wheels. He knew then he was in trouble. He didn't move from that seat for 3hrs. Turns out those lines run 66,000vlts and an arc jumped 15' to the machine. No one was hurt, not even the machine. We're glad it wasn't a longie in it. He might've tried exiting it and gotten himself vaporized.

Holy shit.

What day last week did this happen? We had a power outage I think Wednesday or Thursday right after lunch. Lasted a couple hours. Not sure if it was related.

What's funny is he's a new guy. Been here 2 months. He was LE and his family wanted him to do something safer. So he went back to school and got a job here. I laughed in his face when he said this job was safer. He said when the wheels were burning he thought about me laughing at him and remembered what I said "everything here wants to kill you. It won't hurt you or make you mad, it'll kill you and not care and there's nothing you can do to fight back". He didn't tell his wife about this little mishap.

You're right. Accidents around every corner. Lots of close calls. I've got stories for days. [emoji15]

Me too. Some I tell my wife, but most I don't. It's better that way.

It's a blend of herbs. I've made it a few times and it's always a hit. It looks gross before it's cooked but the green all becomes a crispy layer of delicious.
