Another bad way to die: Man dies in grain silo

Eck that is horrid. Like being buried alive.

I’d rather drown in pussy.

Jesus that's horrible.

Why don't they have some sort of emergency mechanism that allows the silo to open up and the grain to flow out onto the ground so the person could be freed?

I knew a kid that got engulfed in grain. Dad was loading his grain cart from the sidetap, then took off for the ethanol plant. Kid was standing on top of a corn shelf and stepped on a spot with an air pocket underneath.

He was wearing a ventilation mask which was the only thing that saved him. He knew it would be over an hour before his dad would be back and realize he got sucked in. Inside the bin it was 120 degrees and he had 500 pounds of weight pushing on his body all directions. He ended up submerged in that grain bin for 5 hours before an emergency crew of 100 people were able to get him out. His heart was beating 200 bpm while in the bin. Doctors were amazed his heart didn’t explode in his chest after several hours.

Yeah, easily one of the worst ways to go. If your lucky you die in a few minutes

Husband is a farmer -- will not click link. Prayers to the victim and his family/friends.

When I read the title I thought you were gonna say he died because he walked himself to death.....because he couldn't find a corner in the silo to take a shite.
