California Tree Trimmer Dies After Being Pulled Into Wood Chipper
Thursday, November 08, 2007
TUSTIN, Calif. — An Orange County tree trimmer feeding branches into a wood chipper was pulled into the shredding machine and killed.
The name of the worker is being withheld until relatives can be located.
The Wednesday afternoon accident in Tustin is being investigated by the California Occupation and Safety Health Administration.
Police called to the residential area just after 4 p.m. found the landscape worker's body inside the wood chipper. It isn't clear if the victim was a man or a woman.
Wood chippers shred branches and tree trimmings into mulch.
Thirty-one people have been killed in wood chipper accidents between 1992 and 2002, according to a 2005 Journal of the American Medical Association report. _________________

Soon after? That's instant death depending on how fast the blades go and how it happened. If it went like how I think, the person felt the initial pain, and then died instantly. _________________ Follow, please follow me home

It was never seeing their friends, husband/wife, children, family, etc. ever again. _________________ Follow, please follow me home

I'm not exactly sure how big a wood chipper is, or the dimensions of the blade inside, but if he "died instantly," I don't think the electrical impulses in his brain had enough time for him to render that thought. I think if anything, initial shock, then death. I could be wrong, though.

That's why I said if.
Also, Al, it's said to be of your life, not just your friends and family. But the last thing I would think of would be my wife and children. _________________ Follow, please follow me home

I think I'd think "Oh [expletive]!" And then most likely die. I wonder where the whole "you see your life flash before you" thing came from, anyway. Some people have, in all essence, "died," but been brought back (seconds to minutes later). But I'm curious where that all came from.

this is what struck me as odd... a bit graphic btw...
Spoiler:
did the body fold so the head and pelvic regions get shredded? what body was left for them to find? i just found the comment odd.
