Rescuers left the pole inside and rushed him to hospital so surgeons could fish it out.

So all those fishing trips that doctors take are really training?

A horrible accident to be sure, amazing that the worker survived. Robotics can injure or kill, like any machine with sufficient power from a hammer on up. I don’t know what the laws are in China but in the US there are very strict and detailed requirements for machine safeguarding that make it very unlikely anything like this could happen (which is why you never hear of it). It’s always possible to bypass safety mechanisms and I’ve seen the effects firsthand, but stories like this tend to whip up a technophobic fear factor that is unjustified and doesn’t square with reality.

The ten skewers that were removed I hope they have the sense to mount and frame them, and give the guy something to hang on his wall.

I guess the safety sign now reads "0 Days Since Last Impalement".
How about the poor guy who got the "industrial colonoscopy"... and they mention that incident only as an aside!
