I actually knew the brother of this kid...
Man, what a horrible death.

Tech worker dies in vat of sulfuric acidSeptember 24, 2007 7:00 AM PDT
Tech worker dies in vat of sulfuric acid
Posted by Natalie Weinstein

A worker at a circuit board factory in Redwood City, Calif., was found dead in a waist-high vat of sulfuric acid over the weekend.

Even more disturbing, the man's body was discovered by his father.

If this hadn't been reported by respectable news agencies, it would have "urban myth" or "bad mafia movie" written all over it.

The news, however, was reported early Sunday by the San Mateo Daily Journal and later expanded by the San Jose Mercury News.

According to the Mercury News, Fernando Jimenez Gonzalez, 18, was working at the Coastal Circuits factory when he apparently passed out from fumes as he dipped circuit boards into a tank for acid copper plating.

When Gonzalez didn't return home from his shift, his father went to search for him. Gonzalez's body was discovered around 2 a.m. Sunday.

A company executive, interviewed by the Mercury News, declined to comment on why police believe Gonzalez wasn't wearing protective gear.

The plant is now closed, according to the Mercury News, and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration is investigating.

What a dumbass...

But hey, I've heard of worse stories that have turned out to be true. Like the story about some horny kid who cut a hole in a couch in his basement to have sex with, got his dick caught in the springs or something, then died of dehydration.

Funniest tragedy of all time.

Oh cellardoor6 I've noticed you've become quite a neutral person when it comes to the BBS, you used to have excellent arguments and held them well. Obviously people are crap at responding to you when their best comeback is "your gay" emphasizing the typo and the bad description then you would have 500 words that would detail how you were not gay (assuming you're not gay) and how the person cannot use proper spelling and grammar was beyond epic. They were great times, however I also like your chilled attitude and even funny attitude. Keep both your methods and make this forum great.

Also on topic, how can someone get dehydrated from getting your penis snagged on the sharp end of a spring?

I assume he didn't want to fuck up his dick so he lay there until someone came home, so he became dehydrated and died.

Wow... get a life. Not only did you focus all of your attention on me out of the blue, but you also threw in a few completely disingenuous bits of bullshit in the process.

Haha! Whoa there... you're not THAT dumb are you?

Let's make this simple for you:

- A guy got his dick stuck in a couch
- The couch was in a basement, far from a water source
- He couldn't get his dick out
- He couldn't drink
- He died

Now that you've had the thinking that was too difficult for your feeble little mind done for you, what do you think about the actual topic? Or are you just going to focus your entire participation around me to cope with having had political views of yours disproved in entire seperate topics?

I suppose that with the possible blood loss that caused by the snag, he lost over 15% of his body fluids which killed him. If he unsnagged himself it may of caused a bigger wound but still he could of stopped the blood loss by putting pressure on it.

Still it must of been a big cut to kill him or his family were out too long.

Yeah I got my sources from wiki, not the best source but there must be something true out there.

This is exactly what I'm looking for, welcome back to your "arsehole" position. I really know you're quite a mood changer. Also I love your formal slash informal statement.

- He couldn't get his dick out

I disagree, people can last 3 days without water, so unless you have a news source explaining how long his family were away from the house you cannot say not drinking water killed him. You would not feel great not drinking anything for 12 hours but you would survive. I would think blood loss killed him and he might of got an infection from the wound that sped up the dehydration thus killing him.


Now that you've had the thinking that was too difficult for your feeble little mind done for you, what do you think about the actual topic? Or are you just going to focus your entire participation around me to cope with having had political views of yours disproved in entire seperate topics?

I have never had an argument with you about politics only a story I made which you disapproved of. I'm not a great mind on politics as I tend not to watch or read political news because quite honestly it does not affect me as much as other people. I am happy with my prime minister, it's policies and how it runs the country. I am a great admirer of you, someone who is stubborn and loyal to his views and will never give up the fight. As you asked that we should not derailed the initial topic, I feel that sulphuric acid is possible the worst way to die, being burnt to death is real pain which stays with you the rest of your life if you survive. Acid is like fire ten times worse and burn quicker, takes off your skin. I'm not too sure how it would feel to be burnt by acid, I'm still in science fiction mode and wonder how they found the man's body when I thought sulphuric acid completely vaporises your body including the skeleton leaving nothing.

Face it cellardoor6, you cannot piss me off.

Hmm..?

I've been looking for a link for the last several minutes and I can't find one. But it's a story that is years old.

I don't know if the guy lived by himself or if his family was gone for an extended period, but he died from dehydration. The guy didn't show up for work for days, and the police initially went to his house and no one answered. A while later when someone came to fertilize his lawn, they smelled his rotting corpse. The police checked up on it, had an excuse to break into his house, and found him dead, with his wang in the couch, surrounded by porn. He fucked a hide-a-bed couch. They did an autopsy and the coroners concluded he died from dehydration, not blood loss or starvation or anything else.

It was an urban legend, but it was later validated when the police reports and coroner's reports were published along with some book of similarly odd and gruesome stories of death.

Face it cellardoor6, you cannot piss me off.

Yes it did not make much sense really, nevermind.

Sounds believable, I assumed when you said "horny kid" that the guy was 15 or something. It did seem quite unbelievably stupid that the person would not free himself to get water. It's either go through a short burst of pain or dying. Obviously he ended that situation the hard way. It's never nice rotting alone in a house with hundreds, even thousands of flies hovering over the decayed body.

Aha mere insults do not offend me. Although more sophisticated than most insults I've heard.
