Versus this on an alternate model
That. itâs really not that hardâŚ
As harrowing as that video is to watch - putting a guard on that treadmill might reduce one problem, but only correct supervision will correct all the problemsâŚ
But you have to design for the situation in the video - no supervision.
Yes, YOU wouldnât leave a child without supervision but as the video clearly shows there are people out there that would. So you HAVE TO design for the worst case. Professional registration as an engineer checks that you have the ability to design out these hazards.
You, as a subset of 1 person does not equal the way the rest of the worlds population think. Well done you, youâve passed the common sense test. The rest of the population has not.
That was my point. Thats the flaw. Most people wouldnât think about that happening. But the engineers should and should not have left that gap in it

actually, i probably havenât, but I might have passed the practical reality test.
Thatâs quite damming. i would guess that more have than have notâŚ
There are plenty of problems in that video that the guard will not resolveâŚ
The slats on my air assault get widerâŚwhether there is something underneath to get attached to, i am yet to stick my tie in to find out 
The treadmills have been recalled

thatâs grimâŚ
I meant after theyâd rounded the curve, they are most open at the curve, so as something goes under, the slats close and wonât let go.
