Terrible Story! This is a good time for laundry owners to put up cameras for every angle of the mat. Hopefully they will follow up with the investigation.

Not quite following the logic.. Everyone should be forced to be monitored at laundromats 24/7 because one idiot demonostrated the power of natural selection? |

911: "If there's any parts missing from his limbs, I need you to put those parts in a clean plastic bag...with no ice."
That's not how they used to do it on Medical Center, but I digress: Kids, never, ever put your hand into a washer if the tub is in motion. This post was last edited 10/19/2014 at 16:06 |

These Dexters have the emergency button to unlock the door in an emergency. They come to a complete stop before unlocking . The only way I see possible for this accident to happen is by hitting the button and immediately opening the door reaching in to grab while the drum is still spinning. I've done that myself on an old multi speed Laundromat. Hurt like hell.

... that they apparently sent an intern to report the story. |

And caution should be noted to those who are diagnosing washing machines and running them with the outer cabinets removed. Watch where you put your fingers! There are moving parts in there that could hurt if your fingers get too close while they are running! |

It's really not that bad, Malcolm. Nothing graphic.
People are so stupid. Why would anyone put their hand in a moving machine? Even if it started to move after my hand was in there I would jerk it out so quickly one would miss the action if they weren't watching closely. He must not have worked around machinery before or maybe he doesn't see well. Either way he should have taken those things into account. I've worked around machines and electricity all my life and those inventions aren't to be taken lightly. |
