26-Year Old Dies In Sausage Grinder.

The Occupational Health and Safety Association (OSHA) is investigating the Bar S sausage factory after a man fell to his death into a meat grinder.

Michael Raper, a 26-year old father of four, had just celebrated his birthday two days before he slipped and fell into an active meat grinder. The machine took both his legs and he later died of his injuries. Witnesses said his was fully conscious at the time of incident and said that he must have been in terrible agony.

Unfortunately, this type of accident happens more often then it should. Thirty-percent of all employees in the meat processing industry suffer serious injury while on the job. 

Can we just agree that sausage is not worth the risk?
