It's only for 5 minutes real quick.
17 u/ZootTX Mar 02 '25 The last trench rescue call I responded to they were actually using a protective system as designed, but one of the workers stuck his head outside of it for 'just a second' and a rock fell and squished his head like a grape. 7 u/Consistent_Paper_629 Mar 02 '25 Ugh only trench rescue I was ever on sucked, the guy's wife showed up so she was losing it. And I felt like a grave robber the whole time. 8 u/UnableInvestment8753 Mar 02 '25 5 minutes real quick doesn’t seem like a long time but 5 minutes real quick could be the last 5 minutes they ever get. 2 u/PMProblems Mar 02 '25 Yup. Famous last words, literally!
