Yeah no if you're used to water taking time to heat up while running or you put it on a neutral setting to adjust to your preference by feel people definitely get in before "checking"
To all the “I never get in the shower without letting it run first” people, I’m sure we’ve all had the experience of water temperature changing rapidly while you’re showering because the reservoirs aren’t setup correctly. Idk if that’s what happened to this man, but if they’re keeping water that hot in the boiler it’s not impossible.
I'm sure we've also all been in some bathrooms where you can't grasp the handle without getting in first lol. We have shower and a big bath together and you have to go in to turn the faucet on.
The water would slowly start to get hotter if that was the case it would just flip from warm to boiling before he could get out or turn the water off. Also the article literally says that's not wasn't the case
@@Rohit-jv7nl I feel like it's pretty natural to realize he'd still get burned if he checked it and it was hot, you absolute room temperature IQ individual.
I have to assume a lot of people get in, and then adjust their water to the desired temp before switching it over to the shower setting. But clearly the dude mentioned in the video didn't. 😂
I’m suspecting you guys don’t take much showers. It’s called the cold water gets routed somewhere else and you get pure hot or cold water. The hotels water heater is probably a lot hotter than a households
The defence tried to argue that as Alex wasn’t a guest, he wasn’t owed a duty of care. This won’t work in court. Motels have a duty of care to all people on their premises. Same goes for workers and so on.

A little known fact, hot water can actually knock you out. I made that mistake with a shower, I got in and ii was too hot but didn't immediately get out. It causes your blood vessels to dilate reducing your blood pressure so much the blood flow to your brain is interrupted and you immediately feel sick then you go down. If you are in the shower and you start to suddenly feel like you want to be sick sit down. I tried to get out, big mistake, I fell down like a sack of sh't and nutted the toilet. Woke up with blood pissing out my face. Then I had to get the superglue out and stick the cut on my jaw back together, fun times. Could have been worse I guess.

I usually stand away from the shower when turning it on because I don't like cold water suddenly hitting me. After hearing what happened to that old dude, now I've got even more motivation to stand away from the damn shower as its starting. Yikes.
Some old water heaters? (know them as boilers) can make water hot enough to make chicken broth,bathroom becomes a literal sauna and the moment you turn the cold water on it just helps for a little bit and then goes back to magma or fully cold.
Just saying that if you don’t wait outside the shower to make sure the temperature is right, especially an unfamiliar shower cause all of them adjust temperatures differently, then you were probably gonna get taken out by something equally avoidable in the future anyway
this actually almost happened to me the first time i took a shower after getting my hot water tank replaced a couple years ago. thankfully i only burnt my hand/wrist and foot/ankle because i was in the process of stepping into the shower.
Always feel the water before having a shower, so it's the right temperature for you. Adjust the temperature and feel the water again, just in case.(if neccessary)
The elderly dude was likely disabled, so getting into a wet shower is dangerous. Thats why the guy preloaded himself into it. The legal issue lies in the question "was it expected by the client that the shower would be 30 degrees hotter than code (in my area)"?
I wonder if there is a heat regulator dysfunction -or maybe it’s cheaper to allow scalding water to kick in quickly so it’s not wasted while people wait for 10 minutes to get in? I dunno.🤷🏻 I stayed at a nice hotel in France. Quite old. After checking the water temp, I got in. After only a few minutes, the pressure and temperature changed a LOT. It happened a few times during the shower. A similar thing happened at an AirBNB in the southwest U.S. oh, that poor man.
i lived in an apartment that was run the fuck down. i remember complaining often about the shower which had something wrong with it. the water would randomly go to the hottest temp and then the coldest temp, oscillating between the two temps. so id be washing my hair and then get boiling hot water dumped on me. landlord of course never did anything.
So that’s exactly how my grandaunt died. She was unable to move or speak in her later years and she was found dead in the shower from whole body burns.
Ive been to a lot of hotels, some of them have freezing "hot" water to lava hot water. But to be fair, who turns on the shower ON themselves? Who doesn't turn the shower on, wait a minute or two, then put your hand in to test the temperature?
I never get in the shower without checking the temp first but if he was 76 he might have to shower with a showerchair. He'd be sitting down without much mobility while the water just scalds the shit out of him. That's a horrible way to go.
Iv heard a story in a prison guards used to torture prisoners lock them in a shower either hot or cold turned on all the way, one time they turned on the hot water and forgot about the bloke he was practically moosh
Average water heater temp is 125° so 150° isn’t that hot and for Charlie who asked… the water gets that hot because it is heated by an electric element or gas heat lol
That’s actually terrifying. That’s some Final Destination type death.
I love Final Destination so much, but yeah, that’s true
👀
This, and the electrified hottub that happened in Mexico, unlocked a new fear in me as well.
Screw that! I would rather stay on Flight 180 and accept my fate.
Idk, traditionally all their deaths were pretty sudden
I absolutely never get in the shower before checking the water temperature. That is insane to me.
Yeah same here it's almost natural to check but I don't think my brain has ever considered it to be hot enough to fucking KILL ME.
What the Christ

Of course it was Econo Lodge. Always has been a sketch hotel chain.
150 F is about 65 C which means that the water was well over half way to the point of boiling by pure temperature alone
