When I worked at a grocery store in high school, part of my training was to watch those awful, poorly-produced but very bloody instructional videos that warned you of the dangers of getting your hand caught in a machine or having a forklift rip your head off.

It’s obvious that the people you’re about to see in these photos had no such training and watched no such videos.

Because they are living life on the edge, baby! And I’m kind of scared to find out what happened to them AFTER these snapshots were taken.

Let’s just hope they’re all okay…

1. DO NOT USE THAT EXIT.

Trust me, it’s not a good idea.

2. These guys must have been crazy.

Just hanging on for dear life.

Whatever you do…

I’ll do my best

4. That’s giving me anxiety.

And it’s a loooooooong way up.

5. Let’s hope this person is doing okay.

Because it looks like it’s about to snap at any moment.

6. Do you work here?

Never mind! Run for it!

Absolutely no PPE in sight..

7. Oh my…come on, guys.

Such a bad idea.

One of my guys sent me this today…….

8. Never thought of that one before…

I wonder how well it works.

9. Sir, that really does not look safe.

One false move and he’s in big trouble.

A great way to show that you’re absolutely loving your job…

10. What could possibly go wrong?

I’d run for cover if I were around this guy.

I don’t see a problem here…

11. Not following his own advice.

Be careful up there!

Screw it – that’s close enough.

12. There’s no way this didn’t end badly.

Accident waiting to happen.

A little more to the right.

13. I hope he’s not afraid of heights.

He’s way up there!
