Video Takes Workplace Safety Too Far

Safety in the workplace is no joke, but this training video for safety meetings features nearly five minutes of workers meeting unexpected demises.

Workplace safety is no joke. While most factories can maintain a quality of excellence with hundreds of days without incident, it's the few bad apples that make headlines when tragic and sometimes fatal accidents befall unwitting employees.

So how can we steer clear of unsafe scenarios? With better training. After all, knowledge is power.

Well in 1998, Educational Resources offered "Will You Be Here Tomorrow?" a brutal training video for safety meetings that features nearly five minutes of workers meeting graphic demises.

The full video is posted below, and let us know how far you made it before you turned away. We only made it to 1:14 on the first go.

Safety in the workplace is no joke, but I think it's safe to say that it can be taken a little too far.

This is IEN Now.

The reactions are just as entertaining, so feel free to share footage of friends and coworkers watching the original for the first time in the comments section or on our Facebook page
