Product description

The video starts with a saw cutting a plaster cast, the same sawing nose that Jonathan heard when his leg was lacerated by a brush cutter. We see what happened in the minutes following the accident - the blood, touniquets, ambulance... Jonathan then reminds us that a work-related accident can happen to anyone at any time. He talks about the impact this accident had on his life, and finishes by stressing the importance of receiving health and safety training, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DDz0CD9yNTc&list=PLG2pU6GgEAKmq7zauamhBmNShTcbbTJy1&feature=share&index=3
