Part of a scary series of ads featuring construction site mishaps that was no doubt a huge influence on the scary series of preventit.ca ads tha have the internets ablaze.
I wonder why the CSAO didn't simply decide to make these ads as gory as they could get away with. I mean, yes, it probably would have meant that they could only be shown during the late-night hours, but at least they'd get their point across, right?
Good day
The SAD thing is…all these years later,…those kinds of "accidents" STILL happen …
I recall all the Construction Safety PSA's….(had a couple of my own DOH.)..& NOW am always watching for potential accidents to help prevent them from happening!!
With everyone falling and that music, it's like a drug-induced nightmare! I guess that's why the title says "Scary Construction Safety Association of Ontario", it's an association that's only concerned with "scary construction", lol.
I recall those ads, made me never want to work in the construction industry ever!
Do you have the scaries one I recall, a guy is using a hammer and chisel, a part of the chisel breaks (like just a flake) and goes into the guys eye he then falls backwards (from 20+ stories) or something like that
I guess they've continued the 'shocking' commercial trend with the current workplace safety PSA's in which the employees talk about the ineptitude of their employers and their imminent accident just before it occurs.

Those have got to be the clumsiest MF'ers in the history of construction work.
