After I initially posted this I remembered a freighting experience I had while
working bridge construction when I was about 20 years old.

I was assisting a crane operator that was relocating a portable compressor to
another part of the bridge deck. My job was to keep it from spinning on the
hook. As he was moving the boom and I was steading the compressor, the boom
came within arching distance of a high line. The next thing I knew, I I woke up
flat on my back with some guys standing around me. The crane operator had a
smirk on his face. That was enough for me, I walked off the job never to
return.

over on my blog here:
