I guess it would be too embarrassing to show a photo of the safety belt that broke.

I nearly killed myself while learning my trade & nobody knew, just so the boss could get around in his Mercedes sports.
The company should be prosecuted but won't.
Poor kid

Shame. Surprising this doesn't happen more. Safety on work sites is (very slowly) improving though.

This is really scary. So many people are risking their lives for $7 or less than per day.
