As an overweight male with a girthy waist line, I've become aware of the snapback of my belt, and have painted lines in my house for my family's safty. This video was very informative, thank you TH-cam.
This information is most useful to a general audience when you are using a tow cable. A tow cable is generally a metal cable mounted on the front or back of a large car or tractor, used to tow other vehicles out of ditches or mud. You may have to use one someday, and it is important that nobody be within the danger zone of the tow cable when you are applying tension to it. Tow cables can turn into giant scythes if they snap. The force is enough to cut a man in two at the hip.
Yeah a good way to mitigate danger is to weight the cable or.use a chain weighted as well you use a moving blanket and a large length of blanlet first then the chain loosely draped and if your realy woried another blanket over when the tension breaks the loose chains soak up most of the intertia usualy dropping it right to the ground worls very well ive only snatched uncovered 1 time and was using tow rope but it had enough velocity that it recoiled past my head in the cab went through both the front and back windows
@@Mayurbhedru yeah ive seen compound bow injuries caused by decambering while shooting its a loss of tension all the same but doesnt always break the line and some of those people had the inside of their holding arm filleted of elbow to wrist
I don't think you need to be a sailor to have logical thinking,, it's like me saying don't stuck your hand into a engine cylinder because I'm a mechanic,, don't get me wrong I'm not trying to look down upon your profession,, but it's halfway fault because ppl fail to think logically

Be careful! The snapback zone might extend to your location! So if a sneaky sneaky wolf chews the line, it might snap back at you at deadly speeds, you better paint the snapback areas on the shack!
When my friend was serving in the Navy in Korea, my friend died in one of the cases in this video. He was a close friend of mine from the same elementary, middle and high school, and when he died, he was only a young man in his 20s.

Pretty sure I seen this in a compilation of some sort, so maybe it has something to do with that, that or people are just big fans of digestible clips less than 5 minutes.
Again: as the profound calm which only apparently precedes and prophesies of the storm, is perhaps more awful than the storm itself; for, indeed, the calm is but the wrapper and envelope of the storm; and contains it in itself, as the seemingly harmless rifle holds the fatal powder, and the ball, and the explosion; so the graceful repose of the line, as it silently serpentines about the oarsmen before being brought into actual play- this is a thing which carries more of true terror than any other aspect of this dangerous affair. But why say more? All men live enveloped in whale-lines. All are born with halters round their necks; but it is only when caught in the swift, sudden turn of death, that mortals realize the silent, subtle, everpresent perils of life. And if you be a philosopher, though seated in the whale-boat, you would not at heart feel one whit more of terror, than though seated before your evening fire with a poker, and not a harpoon, by your side.

As a USN sailor in the 70's, I witnessed or heard about numerous incidents involving lines (or ropes). I saw one sailor get both legs broken and another get a broken arm when an idiot LTJG commanding a destroyer tried to use the line and his engines to swing his ship into position next to mine. The line didn't break, but it had enough tension to overcome the friction of the wraps around the capstan, and the loose end lying on the destroyer's deck hit or scattered several seamen in the area. I also witnessed a line breaking and actually penetrating the bulkhead of a tugboat, killing a crewman inside the vessel. I was nearly injured when a destroyer coming along side my ship used a shotgun-like projectile to shoot a line over to our ship. I had just come out onto the main deck from a hatch when the projectile nearly hit my head, bounced off the bulkhead, and landed on the deck in front of me. Sailors on the other ship shouted at me to grab the line. I did. I picked it up and threw it back at them.
*maritime related. Marine is usually related to things under the water. "Maritime is used most often in connection with seafaring, with sea travel, shipping, and exploration, and aspects of the sea in relation to those activities; whereas marine relates directly to the sea and its creatures."
I think having a smal crevice in back of that solid support thing can help... then use a crowbar like rod to place rope and slide it out from crevice or gap created. So no fingers would be involved.
Yes, this video is helpful to you neurologists because it tells you about how some of your patients get injured. The guy at 0:17 looks like one that is up your alley.
Great video with super helpful visualisations. One small update though: insurers now recommend not to pain snap back zones since this gives a false impression of safety. Instead, the entire mooring deck is to be considered a snap-back zone
As an actual occupational health professional, that is a good idea. If you can't predict all the failure modes of a line snapping back, the only thing sure is to stay as far a possible from it.
As a criminal justice major and someone who works at a walgreens, this is truly heartwarming. I’ve never cried and shat myself this much. Thank you for showing me the light, this was truly helpful! ❤️
As a warehouse worker who had to watch for packages falling off of high conveyor belts, toppling high stacked wooden pallets and a forklift, learning about line safety is very beneficial.
Yes. Those lines are everywhere in every warehouse. You won't see em comin' for ya when you are distracted picking up boxes. Look around every corner. They are lurking just waiting for their next victim. Then WHAM! The snap will shatter your insides if you aren't careful.
My dad used to work at an offshore oil rig, and once he told me the story of one of his friends who went paraplegic due to a line accident. He was standing on the rope when the line tensed up. My dad said the guy was flung with such a force he landed like 15 meter away from where he was standing. Scary stuff. Line safety is no joke
As a college student studying psychology and neuroscience in a landlocked area this is incredibly informative and useful in my everyday life. Thank you, TH-cam recommendations!
What I find funny about this is all the people in the comments going "oh gee I don't know what I'm doing here". Yes, it was in your recommended videos, but you chose to click on it. You don't have to click on every recommendation TH-cam gives you. It's popular because it's an interesting video. It's a look into the serious safety hazards surrounding things that most people don't ever think about. It's visually appealing and short enough to keep the average person's attention, yet still informative. That's why it was recommended and that's why you're here.
It's popular because TH-cam's recommended video algorithms are garbage for actually discovering content you are truly interested in. They are created to generate as many clicks as possible, nothing else.
I work on cargo ships and it's a very scary thing when a line breaks, it sounds like something exploded. Once time when tension becomes too strong, somebody shout "Take cover!" and line breaks, nobody injured except shitty cheap chinese rope :D
As a teenager male who living in the north on the mountain that just scrolling youtube at 3AM and stumbled upon this clip 2 years ago and I didn't even slightest interested in maritime work at all And now i am an able-bodied seaman on a cargo ship. TH-cam algorithm god have already decided my fate since then i see.
i mean, i got here from watching yu gi oh 0 openings, so idk what youtube thinks yu gi oh is about... i was afraid of ropes before because i've seen what could happen, knowing the technical stuff just scared me more
When I was serving in the navy , while the example at 0:40 may appear common sense, it is still a dangerous procedure as the line gets taut very easily and quickly if its a big ship, even if you have laid out a generous amount of the rope beforehand. Add to the fact that the ship is never actually stationary, the linesmen have to work fast to drag the rope(which is pretty heavy due to its size) and secure it well at the bitt before the ship drifts apart and draws the rope taut. new linesman especially are warned to always just let go the moment they feel the rope getting taut, instead of trying to fight the pull instinctively to prevent injury. also when a line of that size gets enough strain on it that it starts to stretch, the sounds that come from it are scary enough for you to want to get as far away from it as you can.
The XO of USS Garcia got his legs cut off when the#1 mooring line snapped as it came tight on the capstan. April 16,1986 when we (USS Mahan DDG42) returned to Charleston SC with them from the Med.

*A cautionary tale:* my father knew a man in construction who was working around an elevator when the cable snapped. The cable flew towards him and struck him in the upper thigh, cutting an artery and nearly cutting off his leg. The bleeding wasn't stopped in time and the man passed away on the site.
A close relative lost his eye due to a snap back if im getting yhe name correctly. It would have slashed through his head if it was any closer. Thanks for making the video. This is stuff worth sharing
One of my neighbors worked on barges and got caught in a loose coil that came under tension. Severed both his feet and turned most of his lower legs into hamburger. This is some dangerous stuff and people really underestimate it.
@@Shady36 lines are used in many places for many things. This stuff applies to crane work, haulage, etc... it's always a good idea to be careful around anything that can store a lot of mechanical energy.

Ain't nothing wrong with hanging out in the snapback zone when you've got the reflexes of a cat. I can cry out in pain almost instantly after being severely injured.
Make sure you have a good chair to keep that posture in check, wouldn't want to be looking like the hunchback of Notre dame, I would recommend a second hand Herman miller aeron, they run you about 300-400 in good condition on the second hand market but can save you thousands of dollars for back surgery, and get up every 1-2 hours

My dad was on deck in the navy while a crew member was neglecting his duties in watching a thick as all hell wire line for tension. In which case he was supposed to let it loosen. Whole thing snapped from above, came whipping to the deck, my dad was standing an inch to the left. The wire was so thick it should have cut him in half. He was 16.
This makes you realize how fleeting and fragile human life is. So difficult to nourish but can be taken away just as easy. Considering the amount of hazards all around us, it's amazing to think that most of us even got where we are now.
There are many hazards, but just as many safety precautions. This video is just focusing on a particularly dangerous place, doesn’t mean everything is as dangerous as maritime crew hazards

Great video with super helpful visualisations. One small update though: insurers now recommend not to pain snap back zones since this gives a false impression of safety. Instead, the entire mooring deck is to be considered a snap-back zone
A bit hard for anyone to do their job then wouldn’t?
@@arthursandomine5464you are NEVER safe from the snapping rope. check under your bed before you go to sleep tbh
See comment #1@@adog3129
As an actual occupational health professional, that is a good idea. If you can't predict all the failure modes of a line snapping back, the only thing sure is to stay as far a possible from it.
ok...so....Snapback zone = Don't take a step on the deck if you want to live!
it's a "don't step out of the shadow" game. ez
do not stand near rope
a step on the deck can snap your neck

My dad used to work at an offshore oil rig, and once he told me the story of one of his friends who went paraplegic due to a line accident. He was standing on the rope when the line tensed up. My dad said the guy was flung with such a force he landed like 15 meter away from where he was standing. Scary stuff. Line safety is no joke
My father’s friend works in the maritime industry and he lost his fingers because of a rope accident
That's scary
I hope he got worker's comp.

As a college student studying psychology and neuroscience in a landlocked area this is incredibly informative and useful in my everyday life. Thank you, TH-cam recommendations!
What I find funny about this is all the people in the comments going "oh gee I don't know what I'm doing here". Yes, it was in your recommended videos, but you chose to click on it. You don't have to click on every recommendation TH-cam gives you.
It's popular because it's an interesting video. It's a look into the serious safety hazards surrounding things that most people don't ever think about. It's visually appealing and short enough to keep the average person's attention, yet still informative.
That's why it was recommended and that's why you're here.

It's popular because TH-cam's recommended video algorithms are garbage for actually discovering content you are truly interested in. They are created to generate as many clicks as possible, nothing else.

When I was serving in the navy , while the example at 0:40 may appear common sense, it is still a dangerous procedure as the line gets taut very easily and quickly if its a big ship, even if you have laid out a generous amount of the rope beforehand. Add to the fact that the ship is never actually stationary, the linesmen have to work fast to drag the rope(which is pretty heavy due to its size) and secure it well at the bitt before the ship drifts apart and draws the rope taut.
new linesman especially are warned to always just let go the moment they feel the rope getting taut, instead of trying to fight the pull instinctively to prevent injury.
also when a line of that size gets enough strain on it that it starts to stretch, the sounds that come from it are scary enough for you to want to get as far away from it as you can.
