Recently there has been an influx of daredevils taking ridiculous safety risks and climbing high infrastructures with no safety equipment to protect them if they slip and fall.
In Australia, a man has been charged with trespassing after he scaled a 12 story construction crane. The 20-year-old can be seen dangerously walking across the arm of the crane. After some negotiation the police managed to get the man off the crane and took him to hospital because he seemed to be very disorientated after his climb.
Again, a daredevil in Australia, climbed up an 80 meter tower with no safety equipment. Half way through the climb the daredevil seems to be having some second thoughts about his climb as the tower becomes extremely rusty. However, he continues his climb with complete disregard to his safety, and gets more confident, taking the time to turn his camera around and address his video’s audience.
Reading these daredevil stories and watching their videos always make us feel uneasy. These structures are not designed to be climbed by non-professionals who are not wearing the correct safety equipment. All it takes is for someone to lose their footing on a rusty metal pole causing them to fall from an extreme height.
A fall from a relatively low height can cause serious injury to a person, so if you are climbing a structure 80 meters above ground with no safety equipment, there is a very slim chance that you will survive if you slip.
We know that a lot of our customers regularly work at height, and so we would just like to take a minute to remind you not to take on any work at height if you don’t have the correct safety equipment at your disposal. Using safety harnesses and fall arrest blocks can mean the difference between life and death, so please make sure you are using the correct safety equipment.
Here, at SafetyLiftinGear we are proud to stock a truly comprehensive range of specialist safety harnesses from basic safety harnesses through to the more specialist rope access and insulated harnesses specially designed for electricians. If are confident that we will have the exact safety harness that you require, however if you cant find the harness you are looking for please contact us on 0808 123 6969 or email us at sales@safteyliftingear.com.
If you are work at height, it is important to not only use personal fall protection equipment such as safety harnesses and fall arrest blocks. It is equally as important to ensure that your tools are also protected from being dropped or falling from height.
If you accidently drop your tools whilst working at height you could potentially damage any equipment that is on the ground below, cause an accident, or cause a fatal injury. Tool lanyard attaches onto your person at one end, either around your waist, wrist or onto your safety harness, and secure your tool at the other. By using this simple safety measure you minimise the risk of causing a serious accident.
Here at SafetyLiftinGear we stock a fully comprehensive range of tool lanyards, no matter your requirements, we are certain we have a lanyard that suits your need. Click here to view our full range of Tool Lanyards.
In the unlikely event you cant find the exact lanyard you require, please contact our customer service team on 0808 123 6969 or email sales@safetyliftingear.com
