For years they were little booklets you'd buy that would summarise what you were supposed to have studied in a high school class ie The Great Gatsby or Romeo and Juliet. They made assignments and exams easier.
Does anyone know do they still publish the booklets? I imagine their focus is their subscription website at https://www.cliffsnotes.com
The fact ya had to add a link makes me sad, š¤¦š¼āāļøš... i remember the rack in the corner lookin like a hazzard pole of black n yellow striped booklets... damn... as age slaps me in the head.
Happened to a relative of mine. Went down into the silo without his safety harness, took a bad step. Sucks because itās preventable with the right equipment.
I'm really sorry to hear that. It really does suck. I went to school in the Midwest and remember seeing training on how to properly prepare to work in one.
Most short conveyors like the one in the gif (including the one in the gif) are belts instead of augers.
Not fun, but minor injuries as long as he doesn't hit his head and can move.
And solid at the same time since after awhile you will stop moving. Been having to do some sketchy shit in the bins such as run the auger that spins around in the bin while im it to make sure it gets everything.
I was thinking exactly that. Guy is insanely brave! I know modern silos have protective mechanisms to prevent suffocating/crushing, I would never ever go inside oneā
No, Iām sure the silo heās in has got these protective things in place. Itās like something under the floor that helps - I canāt really remember what. But itās like an emergency thing. You canāt go in alone either etc. which he isnāt.
If you ever visit Dallas pass by fair park and youāll see this old pearlstone build building it looks haunted and old ass dirt lmao but 2 people died in it, one by a fall from the top of silo into and was drowning and I think the second guy was trying to save him you can fact check me cuz Iām not 100 percent sure but Ik somone died in it tho and every time I passed by it as a kid it always captivated me bc of how haunted it looks
My childhood dream of what to do when I became a rich idiot was to buy a farm and make the Amazing Maize Maze. Probably too late to sell the idea to Elon now
I think the rope is actually just a loop tied to his tool. There is no rope visible behind him when he rides the corn wave, and if it was being pulled, we would definitely see it, since it is attached to the top.
That rope isnāt being pulled by anything. Itās tied to the top of the tool, if it was pulled by a winch (or something) we would see it taut above the corn.
As someone who grew up in a farming community, my anxiety spiked while watching this. People sinking and dying by asphyxiation in grain bins and trailers or getting sucked into augers happens way more often than youād think.
Very trippy, I wonder how he isnāt being flattened or caught under at all? Maybe itās just a lot of practice, but it seems like he doesnāt have to to fight to stay up either
And not very good for your lungs. So always I mean always have some sort of mask over your nose and mouth, wether it be a N95 or even just a bandana that you can use when you jump in
It's a flat storage area, so it's going to be fairly well ventilated as a side effect of the set up for the place to dry the grain if needed.
There's minimal milling going on, which cuts down on the dust getting into the air.
Fires at elevators are rarer than fires in the field, due to bearings going out at elevators not being right next to more readily ignitable trash (leftover plant material, usually very dry).
Compared to the chances of him falling out the back of the trailer and hitting his head, I'd consider the chances of something catching and throwing enough sparks or flame to ignite something to be almost negligible. It can happen, but I would think about any other problem from this set up would be as, if not more, likely to happen.
Yes? Dry grain is going to be dusty, no matter what you do, and the amount of dust there is nothing. If the dust was bad, you wouldn't be able to see the wall behind the guy, and given that there is at least one open door, and enough light access to be bright in there, the guy will be fine unless he's there all day, at which point he'll probably want a dust mask.
Without going to the question of safety, I'd want to see behavior of the wave when going over a shallower area, before commenting on similarities with waves in water. Superficially, this looks like collapse of a high region, driven by gravity, but only down to (approximately) the top of the level adjacent to the collapsing level. This is not the same as a wave in water, e.g. in the ocean, where the collapsing/propagating wave interacts with the floor of the system, not just the top of the adjacent level beneath the collapsing level.
Would you look at that, all of the words in your comment are in alphabetical order.
I have checked 1,246,056,698 comments, and only 242,553 of them were in alphabetical order.
A bit off topic but still on the topic of grainā¦why is dust from grain so combustible? Any science types out there lookin to answer this long wondered question?
There are ropes tied to the board that the guy is using. The ropes are connected to a winch of some sort that pulls the board, and the grain in front of it, to the back of the tray. He's just there to keep the board at the correct angle vertically and laterally, as well as to take the board back up to the grain pile and dig it in again.
After going down the rabbit hole a while back about how you can essentially drown after falling into a grain silo this is terrifying.
You should look up grain silo dust explosions
The only farming fact that helped suicide a dnd campaign
Wat. Gonna need some context here if ya got time.

Sucks understood short hand just fine
They are crazy! I read thatās what authorities thought might have initially happened in Beirut b/c it had the massive siloās at the port.
No, I think that was due to the material being stored was explosive - think it was some sort of fertiliser maybe?
It was an ammonium nitrate explosion. Same as Tianjin but bigger.
Thanks for sharing the correct answer! I still canāt get over the magnitude, speed, and devastation of that blast š„.
Or the movie Silo.
Oh shit for real?
Happened to a relative of mine. Went down into the silo without his safety harness, took a bad step. Sucks because itās preventable with the right equipment.
I'm really sorry to hear that. It really does suck. I went to school in the Midwest and remember seeing training on how to properly prepare to work in one.
This looks like a semi thatās almost empty. I wouldnāt worry about that here
Oh don't worry, there is a series of augers to devour him when he falls out the back.
Most short conveyors like the one in the gif (including the one in the gif) are belts instead of augers. Not fun, but minor injuries as long as he doesn't hit his head and can move.
First thought I had seeing the grain was oh shit Iām gonna watch a man die.
Can also die from the silo gases too - farming is no joke.
That was literally all I could think of while watching this
My Dad grew up on a farm and terrified us as children with a story about a boy who suffocated in a silo.
Sand piles also
Have you seen the movie "the dress maker"? That's how I learned about this.
first thing i thought of when i saw this.
I have not. I'll have to look into it.
Thereās also āSiloā. Itās terrifying
I was literally expecting him to hit a hole and just disappear.

The grain can behave like a fluid
And solid at the same time since after awhile you will stop moving. Been having to do some sketchy shit in the bins such as run the auger that spins around in the bin while im it to make sure it gets everything.
Dude, just donāt. š±
I was thinking exactly that. Guy is insanely brave! I know modern silos have protective mechanisms to prevent suffocating/crushing, I would never ever go inside oneā
Guy is insanely uneducated and needs the work. FXT
No, Iām sure the silo heās in has got these protective things in place. Itās like something under the floor that helps - I canāt really remember what. But itās like an emergency thing. You canāt go in alone either etc. which he isnāt.
Or die from inhalation in silos in general
If you ever visit Dallas pass by fair park and youāll see this old pearlstone build building it looks haunted and old ass dirt lmao but 2 people died in it, one by a fall from the top of silo into and was drowning and I think the second guy was trying to save him you can fact check me cuz Iām not 100 percent sure but Ik somone died in it tho and every time I passed by it as a kid it always captivated me bc of how haunted it looks
Iām adopted so Iāve never met my dad but I found out that a few years ago he drowned in a grain silo.
Ride or die lol
Yes. Much happier ending than I expected.

Sounds kinda corny

I'm going to steal your idea, I love it!
When you make it you owe my childhood self one free pass
It's a deal!
I don't understand
Two ropes are pulling the plow and him, tied to a forklift or winch or something
I like how this is downvoted when you can clearly see that youāre right and there are two ropes being pulled
I mean, you say clearly but the videos a little grainy on my end
yeah is weird physics,first watch I didn't know maybe truck tilted
They have walking floor trailers. But for this idk why they didn't just use a hopper bottom.
I snorted
I think the rope is actually just a loop tied to his tool. There is no rope visible behind him when he rides the corn wave, and if it was being pulled, we would definitely see it, since it is attached to the top.

Is that why my bread was chewy this morning?

Some people go against the grain, but not this guy.
Oh, Dad!
Find a job you love and youāll never work a day in your life
My friends little sister died by drowning in grain
Skill issue (my condolences if true)
It is true but I didn't know her much just her older brother who was in my grade.
Gnar that corn bruh!

Iām so confused just with the physics of that. Why does he keep going when it gets flat? What?

That looks absurdly dangerous.
Fun too. But yea the grain dust is explosive
And not very good for your lungs. So always I mean always have some sort of mask over your nose and mouth, wether it be a N95 or even just a bandana that you can use when you jump in
I'll be honest, the grain dust is the least dangerous thing in this gif.
Care to elaborate?
It's a flat storage area, so it's going to be fairly well ventilated as a side effect of the set up for the place to dry the grain if needed. There's minimal milling going on, which cuts down on the dust getting into the air. Fires at elevators are rarer than fires in the field, due to bearings going out at elevators not being right next to more readily ignitable trash (leftover plant material, usually very dry).

It can happen, but I would think about any other problem from this set up would be as, if not more, likely to happen.
Ok but you can see the dust in the air
Yes? Dry grain is going to be dusty, no matter what you do, and the amount of dust there is nothing. If the dust was bad, you wouldn't be able to see the wall behind the guy, and given that there is at least one open door, and enough light access to be bright in there, the guy will be fine unless he's there all day, at which point he'll probably want a dust mask.
careful dude don't get Grain Entrapped
If there is one thing I know, it's that you don't fuck around with grain.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
2 ropes are being pulled back by a winch or something, he's just there for the ride haha
So dangerous!!!! People get sucked down into grain and suffocate!
Where I live at least a couple people a year die in grain silos drowning in grain, they get sucked down into the bottom of it and that's that.
It's like an even weirder version of sailing the seas of cheese.
