I think the funniest thing about the video is that it doesn't actually try to teach any specific safety practice. It's just a long line of graphic (and hilarious) scenes of people getting maimed.

It is one of that company's "IMPACT SERIES" meeting openers.  I guess you are supposed to play it at the beginning of your safety meeting. There are some other awesome ones that I wish I could find on the net. 

Yeah, not quite sure I actually learned anything other than the video company cannot WAIT for CGI cuz they could add digitial brain bits later if they wanted..... and they will want.

I'd love to See Peter Jackson's safety video for WETA.

I want to know something, I normally find blood and gore to be abhorrent and evil, and yet I still laughed during this video. What does that say about me?

Well... perhaps I was a tad overzealous with the hyperbole.

I really need to remember to download a copy to my hard drive ASAP before it gets too late.

I know that this is quite an old thread but I had to share that my husband is a coal miner and they still show this video during his yearly safety class, He is currently waiting to shake hands with danger right now.
