I didnt know picking up trash could be dangerous.I once had an incident when i had to jump into the hopper,because a german shepard ran up to me and i didn't have no where to run.Split decision fight the dog or jump in.That was an easy choice when i saw the ram has stop compressing.

Booboy, had that been me, I guess we would have found out how well a german shepherd can take a punch, there is no way no how I am jumping into that hopper, I have seen what it can crush, nope not me, besides, I'm much to good lookin to be crushed to death in a trash hopper!!

Im believe I would have taken my chances with the hopper as well. It would have been much easier to take a bath than to have my face sewn back on.

Cerberus,
I appreciate that comment, thats a good one, I really started thinking that through, its funny when you think about it. I can actually visualize you pulling the dogs head through its butt, kind of disapearing into itself.
