I was on a job site yesterday and complaining that the steel erectors weren’t tied off when placing deck. Upon looking further, though, I realized they had their harnesses connected in innovative ways. The owner of their firm noted that they always stay tied off, even though it often makes their work more difficult, and sometimes less safe.

As I thought about safety and unintended consequences, this video illustrates the concept in a way that will make you laugh.

Be sure to pay attention and work safe. If you another minute, watch this incredible batting practice display. This guy is good.
