Ideas for surviving a rear loader garbage truck
Polythenewrappedme:
If anyone is going to know, this forum is the place to find experts.
Is anyone from the refuse collection industry reading this ?
Is there a non fatal option of being swallowed inside a garbage truck with piles of trash bags ?
Is there a less risky option / method ?
What do readers think ?
TeaSer:
Being just a reader, I think trying a rear loader garbage truck is dangerous as hell!
If you should do it (and I don't think you should), you might have a steel cage around you - that might just take enough pressure to keep you alive. Still the pressure in those mechanics are gross, an I would fear the waste being squeezed around you will still be too much of a pressure. Don't do it!

still yet to see anyone play even in a front/top loader let alone attempt a rear loader,.. i hear people say they have but as soon as you ask for proof ie pics or video they come up with all sorts of weird and wonderful excuses for not having any - i think for most its pure fantasy but many people are so into the role play of doing it that they become completely convinced that they have - i challenge someone out there to prove me wrong with video evidence

Hi Teaser,
Thanks for your reply. Definitely sound advice and I agree with everything you have said.
I seem to recall a historic comment on the Plaza that it depended on whether the packer scooped and compacted or vice versa. 99% pack in the hopper. These would be certain death. But the question remained whether you could sit on top of trash and ride a scoop at least until it flattened you into the payload. If the ejector plate was fully at the front of the lorry you might survive in the space in between.
One reader alleged that providing it was set up it could work. He alleged a video had even been created but when Daffy challenged him to produce said video as evidence, it went silent.
Personally I don't think it is survivable and I would not suggest anyone tries it. Most people end up dead. The few who live have major injuries. Broken skull, broken legs often amputated.

Hi Gazzacub
I agree.
