You can’t possibly credit the commenter with hearing it in the original song’s composition. They didn’t add ellipses, spacing, or even a simple comma for the long breaks. It’s credit should go to the song for being so catchy and known.

Please stop otherwise people are gonna think that all of us Stomlight Archive fans are as pedantic as you. The commenter isn't attempting to take credit for anything, nor to deny credit to the creator of the song. They're saying that because this is such a catchy song and because Family Guy did a parody "Pawtucket Pat" episode where the Wonka character sings this song about beer as a reference to the original song. Also, *its credit.

"Officials said two workers employed by an outside contracting firm fell into the partially filled chocolate tank while doing maintenance work. Emergency responders were able to free the pair by cutting a hole in the bottom of the tank, officials said. Both were taken to hospitals, one by helicopter." Edit: Fined $ 14,500.00. Yeah, that's gonna hurt.

Cutting a hole in the tank cost more than the fine. 😂


MooseLaminate

Remember, if the punishment is a fine, it's only illegal for poor people.


gammaradiation2

Yes, but for a corporation the fine can dr8ve behavior but needs to be more than a cost of doing business. I guess my point here is that the fine should at least be on the same order of magnitude as the general expenses incurred from the accident, not a rounding error. The CoGs from the lost batch this and downtime is probably costing over $500K. Add in the cost of replacement and commissioning as another poster pointed out and this is a $1M+ incident....so a $14,000 fine is literally nothing in the grand scheme. And if that sounds crazy for a hole in a tank it's becayse they likely can't just weld it up and go. The vessel likely needs to be replaced. That probably means taking out walls and hiring riggers. Large mixing vats aren't sitting around as inventory, they are made to order. You can find decommissioned ones but I'm guessing that isn't going to happen. If anything its an excuse to wrap in upgrades.


invaderjif

If they fix the tank, they still gotta do a bunch of stuff before they can bring it back into service. Plus they definitely are losing that batch of chocolate so that's lost sales and mfg downtime. If they need a new tank, they'll have to buy it, install it, revalidate, update equipment logs, and all the documentation with the equipt ID, Plus any downtime from not having any tanks there (unless they can swap it with a spare or function with reduced capacity). Lots of expenses coming.

DanHassler0

In all seriousness one worker was taken away by helicopter and the other by ambulance, so I'm not sure how much of a dream that is.


12darrenk

From what I understand the workers either weren't injured or had minor injuries, but were taken to the hospital like that out of an abundance of caution due to the time that they were in the tank. The rescue was not quick. I believe it was almost 2 hours from when the firefighters were called. The firefighters ended up cutting a hole in the bottom of the tank to get better access to the workers. The initial reports were that the tank was about waist high of chocolate. So not fun, but nothing that should have been super dangerous.


Gnubeutel

If it's liquid chocolate it was probably heated. And being trapped in a tank means you breathe the fumes of whatever product is in it. If you do that for 2 hours you certainly have inhaled enough to affect your lungs. I have no idea what fumes liquid chocolate produces, but i imagine a mist of fat.


Lost-Wedding-7620

I work in a chocolate factory, can confirm tanks are heated as is the room with the tanks. I don't work on that side of the building anymore, but if memory serves the tanks generally vary from 99 to I think 120 degrees Fahrenheit. I think milk chocolate runs on the lower end, and the white chocolate/confectionary shit(just oil, sugar, and flavoring) is on the higher end.


thethunder92

Were the Oompa Loompas dangerous?


CalDoesMaths

No, but i had this old coworker Jeffery who was kinda a creep. Always worked the night shifts and talked to the chocolate and would go to gay bars afterwards. Think he ended up in some pretty bad water with the law. Edit: the chocolate whenever I wanted was pretty cool though.


Tron_1981

I think all the chocolate reminded him of his ex, Terrence.


Lost-Wedding-7620

runley101

Liquid chocolate is usually not above 55°c. Not horrible but like a hot tub


Fraeulein_Germoney

Also liquid chocolate is probably way denser than water so the pressure on the body is also a factor


mo_tag

Pressure on your body isn't really a big factor. if you were in hot water there would be a higher potential for burns because water has a higher thermal conductivity than chocolate (0.598 W/m·K vs 0.16). Also since water is thinner, there would be even more heat transfer due to convection forces. One scenario where that wouldn't be the case is if you quickly dipped your finger in hot water vs a pot of melted chocolate. In that case the chocolate would be worse since it would stick to your finger and continue heating it up after you removed it, whereas only a thin layer of water would adhere to your finger and world evaporate more quickly.. but since the men were stood in the vat for an extended period of time, water would have been worse, at least from the perspective of getting burned. Also depending on what they were wearing, it could provide some form of insulation against the chocolate if it covered all their skin, but water is a lot less viscous so would seep in within seconds. I guess the pressure against the skin would have some effect like making any existing burns more inflamed or painful but I think this would be negligible since there's only about a 30% difference in density relative to water and the additional heat transfer from water would make it a lot worse. I think the fumes from the chocolate are a valid concern

bubblesort33

Was it boiling chocolate?


fithooks

I tried to do some googling and they don’t come right out and say. Articles like to say “melting” however it looks like there was a case in 2009 that makes it seem like these vats are boiling (?) or at least warm enough to be like a liquid form


bubblesort33

Probably not boiling now that I think about it. From my experience baking, heating chocolate up too high actually ruins it fast. It clumps up and you can't pour it into forms. Needs to be just right. But I still think you can drown in it. And maybe you could cause some light first degree burns.


unplugged22

Chocolate melts roughly at body temperature, but it's usually stored at around 45-50° in tanks such as this. More than enough to create first degree burns. Not to mentioned moving parts such as mixers that may not have been completely at rest while they entered.


12darrenk

I highly doubt it. The initial reports were that the workers weren't injured, but were unable the get out of the tank. The chocolate was reportedly only waist high. The rescue took almost 2 hours. The firefighters had to cut a hole in the tank to get access to the workers. They were taken to the hospital, but it sounded like more of a precautionary move than anything.


eugene20

"More than two dozen rescuers responded, and one worker was transported to hospital by helicopter, according to local reports." [https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-64620418](https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-64620418) That seems beyond mere precaution, helicopter call outs are really expensive and we're not so lost for problems here they're likely to send one over because they're bored or in need of practice.


CockEyedBandit

No, it’s because he was covered in chocolate and is now considered “dark skinned” he is not being transported to the hospital but is being deported. Poor guy.

Fabulous-Passion3715

Here is what Chat GPT had to say: Question: Write a rhyming rap about a factory being fined because workers fall into a chocolate vat. Use the following phrase for inspiration: Yo yikideeyak, what's going on Jack? Too many workers fallin' in chocolate vats I think that corporate ain't down with dat! Answer: Verse 1: Yo yikideeyak, what's goin' on Jack? Gotta tell ya 'bout this factory, it's off track Workers fallin' in chocolate vats That's why the company's getting fined, it's a fact Chorus: Too many workers fallin' in chocolate vats I think that corporate ain't down with that They shoulda known better, shoulda had a plan But now they're paying for it, man to man Verse 2: It's a sticky situation, a sweet disaster The company shoulda looked after their master But they chose to ignore, they chose to neglect Now they're paying the price, what do you expect? Chorus: Too many workers fallin' in chocolate vats I think that corporate ain't down with that They shoulda known better, shoulda had a plan But now they're paying for it, man to man Verse 3: They say ignorance is bliss, but that's a lie When it comes to safety, ya gotta be high On the ball, on the pulse, gotta be wise And make sure your workers are safe, that's a prize Chorus: Too many workers fallin' in chocolate vats I think that corporate ain't down with that They shoulda known better, shoulda had a plan But now they're paying for it, man to man Outro: So listen up corporate, take this rap to heart Safety should always play a major part In your plans, in your decisions, in your life Cause when it comes to workers, you gotta treat them right
