This is why you should (in some states legally must) call 811 before digging, so the utility companies will come out and mark where the pipes and cables are. They should be swift and come within 2 days, because they don’t want exactly this to happen.
I called in a gas leak in front of an abandoned house. They were asking me way too many questions. I don't know, just get out here before the neighborhood blows.
I'm a cop and we work very closely woth our local fire department, the kinds of idiots depicted in these sketches are very real, about a year ago there was a pretty significant gas leak near a gym so we were controlling traffic so fire and some civil engineers could get it under control without bystanders becoming casualties. So I was blocking off the road and this guy pulls his car up and requested to pass. I told him there was a gas leak and the whole road was cordoned and nobody could go in. Dude goes "Oh, it's cool, I'm just going to the gym." then tried to drove around my patrol car that had the flashing lights on. It took way too long to explain to the guy that he could not go to the gym that was in a blocked off road.
When I was starting to become my box truck delivery driver for certain stores around Walmart the girl training me literally as she was speaking advised in me to be careful, not to hit gas meter, because she had hit one before. she then hit and broke The gas meter line 2 in from the cement completely . I thought it was so funny but she was hysterical I said calm down I'll call 911 but I'm walking into that field over there you should come with me. She said I'll wait right here because if someone dies I might as well die too I couldn't live with myself. I said at least move this truck out of the way and turn it Off I insisted she come with me. She literally put her seat belts on again and said I can't live with myself if somethin happens so I'll die with them. I said, well good luck with that, and took off walking away. We were in the alley of course surprisingly all of the gas alarms to every shopping center was going off and nobody was treating it as a threat. So I just continued to walking to the field maybe I'm selfish But I was not trying to inhale that stuff, there was so much coming out I was like what a waste. funny thing is this happened twice while I was working there. . The same woman ended up flipping her truck due to high winds leaving the Permian basin same place she hit the gas line lol she's fine. But has sent moved on.
Why else would it be hissing loudly and smelling like hell? What did you think you hit, a 10ft snake?
It’s very obvious when you know you hit a gas line or a underground cable. because there is literally nothing else in the dman earth that would do that in 5 ft of dirt
He was SO CLOSE to doing the right thing. He called the fire department; he didn’t touch anything while he waited for them; and he even ignored his bad-influence buddy. But, alas, the “urge to help at all costs” strikes again.
Someone was doing stuff in his backyard and mining the soil with a PICKAXE and hit a gas line, firefighters had to come and stay for hours and we didn't have electricity for around 4 hours
I can't make this up I swear to god. I once worked for a gas company and I had a dude call me completely defeated and embarrassed because he hit a gas line with an excavator (which is unfortunately common) BUT then proceeded to tell me he tried to melt it back together with a heat gun and now it was on fire.
I suspect this was about how it went a couple months ago when the fiber optic guys hit a gas line about 80ft from my house. I pulled up to caution tape and a couple fire trucks, asked one of the firefighters if anything was about to blow up or if I could get lunch. Firefighter just shrugged and said it was fine so I parked down the block and had me a snakko while the whole neighborhood reeked of eggs😅

Bro’s first instinct was actually just hit it harder. Crazy lmao
You guys should be used to gas leaks by now with all that coffee you're drinking. 😅
Just break out a cigarette or Mary Jane
he was doing good for a sec
I was literally screaming no at this mucking foron, I hope my family is not concerned LOL
I hit a massive power line with a shovel once and miraculously didn’t die. Literally took the power out to half a housing development
I'm glad he didn't produce a spark
As one dealing with allergies I could've gone my whole life without that fact🫣

2 liters? Huh that's pretty cool
should have just let that man finish himself. he's a danger to society.

2 liters of mucus!!!😭😭 I just got out of being stuck so 3 if you're sick?😷🦠🤢
Reminds me of Henry stickman.
I am honestly relived the second strike didn't cause a spark
What is mucus?
RIP that entire block.
Shovel. Metal pipe. Gas. Guess what happens next?

"Less talky more walky" was right there.

Ah that happened near my house recently
Someone was doing stuff in his backyard and mining the soil with a PICKAXE and hit a gas line, firefighters had to come and stay for hours and we didn't have electricity for around 4 hours
Ew we swallow 2 liters of mucus???
Our city planted trees on our block without checking anything and hut our gas line. Eventually they came out and dug the tree up 🤦🏻♀️
"Hey hey hey! Less talkey, more movey"🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥🔥
There goes the neighborhood. 😂
Did you hear about the guy who hit a gas line while digging a hole? He was found 3 counties over
Fun fact the compressed gas suddenly meeting oxygen can spontaneously cumbust
Less talky, more walky!
Damn hitting this line is stressful let me just smoke real quick
why is nobody talking abt the sign
You produce and swallow 2 liters ofucus everyday. Who noticed this on the paper?

'Less talky, more movey.' 😂😂
People like this shouldn't procreate. It'll give natural selection the wrong idea.

less talking more raiding
It should have been "Less talky, more walky." I'm sad and disappointed.
Only 1 these guys wants to live.
Usually a tiny spark from the shovel removes the problem immediately.
Here in Australia, we have dial-before-you-dig to help avoid these situations.
They'll tell you where the essential pipes in your yard are.
2 liters of mucus per day!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Who builds a gas pipe THIS CLOSE TO THE SURFACE?!
Seriously nobody calls 811 before they dig!
“How about you put the shovel down before you fuck it even more!” – the firefighter probably
I'm happy that all of my appliances are electric.
