If you work at, or are planning to visit Los Alamos National Lab, I recommend you review this safety video. ▶ this video
Incredibly irresponsible, and exceedingly hypocritical. Before you can start work, Los Alamos National Labs requires an inordinate amount of safety training. Despite two weeks of videos like this [1], managers think it's ok to make their reports risk the fate of Slotin. [1] ▶ this video
Unfortunately, Los Alamos National Lab has been setting its sights a little lower these days: "How to use the stairs" ▶ this video Nothing a little federal cash can't fix, though: "The Los Alamos National Laboratory Slip Simulator Experience" link
Luckily there's a fix for that too. Behold, Los Alamos National Lab's infamous music video to encourage people to use handrails when they're on the stairs: ▶ this video
