Funny thing is these don't meet ANSI Z89.1 and therefore can't be used in most workplaces

[-] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 18 points 1 year ago

It doesn't have to be safe ... it just has to 'look' safe

[-] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 21 points 1 year ago

Yeah, some people with clipboards and orange vests came by, and they said it's fine.

[-] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 year ago

They were killed later that day from a falling I-beam that was unsecured

[-] Grass@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 year ago

that would kill you anyway...

[-] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 year ago

Is it because the strength of the arch is diminished by the crease? Or because it could channel a falling sharp object into rather than away from one's skull?

[-] queermunist@lemmy.ml 11 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

That was my first thought. The only way this could be somewhat safe is if the hat aesthetic was a flimsy facade and would crumple at the slightest pressure, and underneath the facade was an actual hard hat.

[-] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 year ago

I agree, but I fear that would require a comically large exterior. Ten gallons, as it were.

#1 douchebag for that particular job site

Professional Bull-rider?

Anyone sparing no expense to open a lab-created dinosaur park?

[-] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Plot twist: He spared much expense.

Tory Bruno, CEO of ULA wears a cowboy hard hat. Clearly this is how you become rich.

Unfortunately these buffs don't stack. And the effect only works when constructing large enough engineering feats where people have to look straight up to see the whole thing.

[-] riskable@programming.dev 5 points 1 year ago

Any place with screws loose or loose nuts.

White fedora? It's for when you recall a faulty android.

I don't need the job. I need the hat.

This did not go over well when I delivered my last eulogy, just FYI.

[-] wjrii@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

If they got pissed off enough, I bet you were glad you had it.

[-] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Now that I think about it, it did a pretty good job of deflecting a flower arrangement in a glass vase.

Annie, are you okay?

[-] GeeDubHayduke@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 year ago

That's a job site toilet. Put it down, that's gross..!

Perfect for horse riding and cattle driving.

[-] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Honestly, now that you mention it, I 100% unironically want to see this worn in an equestrian show.
