At 24 years of age, I was laying bricks and earning $8.25 per hour. Today I am the president of an IT consulting firm. Yes, you are correct my life was over 14 years ago.

If you find yourself at 24, feeding wood into a machine, your life isnt ahead of you LOL. Your life is an utter failure. Sad but true!

What an ugly comment. Fit only for people who measure the value of life not by love, or interests but just by a dollar--can''t get any more wh*orish than that.

The ACLU will be suing the tree trimming service because Mr Gonzalez-Ferrer apparently couldn''''''''t read the big warnings posted on the machine. They were in English

The man did not even have time to scream? How could no one even see it happening? The noise of it drowned out his horrified cry? RIP and I do hope it truly was over for him in an instant.

Correct me if I am wrong, but a human being just passed away. Particular members on this board possess no since of humanity. I reflect on what will become of us. Anyway, I feel dreadful for the family of the 24 year old who just passed away. What a way to go. The young man was 24 years old with a life time ahead of him.

The easiest fail safe option would be a pedal. If the operator does not have a foot on the pedal then the chipper will not run. Kind of like the newer lawnmowers.

That is an excellent idea. You could save many lives if you contact the makers of the machine.
