Anonymous Coward User ID: 27302095 United States 05/16/2013 07:26 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Check out this amazing 2011 video presentation on the matter by University of Minnesota researcher David Schmidt. He opens by describing a 2009 explosion that lifted a hog barn a "couple of feet off the ground" and blew the farm operator himself 20 feet from the building. (Thankfully, he wasn't injured, and there were no animals in it.) And check out the footage, starting about 3:19 in, of the foam itself, which must be seen to be believed. At one point , a shovel dips into the mire and scoops up as sample—which jiggles and pulsates, alive, apparently, with microbial activity. Schmidt also does a great job of explaining just how manure foam can cause explosions.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 54764769 Canada 05/13/2020 05:17 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The fact that its a Pig farm is even more evidence that it was H2S. In Oil and Gas the natural extracting of oil/shale/gas from the earth will also extract H2S gas. It's where ever decaying Organic Mass is present. This stuff is SUPER deadly! Its heavier then air too so it will flow and settle. 1 PPM exposure will kill you almost instantaneous, by knocking you unconscious then suffocating you as your body spasms and contorts, hopefully you snap your spine so you die abit quicker. Its not only posionous, but as the article says, explosive! There is a good chance that the farmer had something spread over the Pig Pen floor,and it stored up. Also, if there were an cisterns around, the H2S would flow into that like water. Pig Farms are very dangerous for children. Every year theres at least one incident where a child or children fall over the fence railing when watching/hand feeding the pigs. This happens as the Pig would generally rush over to the people, the kids, expecting to be fed, and their hooves disturb the mud and sloop and releases H2S gas from the mud, it WILL be there, the gas if in a dense enough of a concentration will be disturbed and will rise up, the kids are right below and take a wiff, out the go and fall in. Then pigs do what pigs do. H2S is a deadly secret that unless you are working in the industry that expects it you probably wont learn about it. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 42232330 United States 06/30/2020 05:52 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Pigs are fed with ironically enough - corn, shucked and sent through some sorta grinder thing to seperate the pellets, they can not digest it fully( like humans - DURR!) And literally root around in their and others' pig shit to eat it again - gross as fuck but smart i guess, as pigs are highly intelligent. They also get little brown pellet things and depending on the stage, ground up corn in powder form. They also LOVE watermelon for whatever reason. Most things you throw over a fence a pig will eat in like 2 minutes. But they go apeshit over watermelon - rinds and all. They also recognize peoples faces and voice. What happens to them is very lame and i don't mean just the killing and eating them part. It is very inhumane sad and disgusting how they are kept in the process. Farms clip their tails and ears because pigs are so smart, they use those things for leverage when fighting. If you were locked in a cage with no escape and a boar or new momma pig especially with babies in the corner - bwahaha, lights out, bitch. Anyway - the foam shit is highly flammable and toxic. Farms have these grate things that you have to rake shit over and pass it through and they shit constantly. They are also adorable as hell as little pigglets - very fuzzy soft, very cute and very smart. They are also very delicious, which ain't helpin them. |

Also - farms have a shit ton of chemicals and fertilisers and shit - mixed in the same area and drainage as the pig shit - nitrogen and all that. Those things explode without the pigshit but especially with it. Also - monsanto can and will eat a dick. Did you know that even if a farmer refuses to use their product and just had their own plot of land growin veggies and shit that they can and will be sued if they for example grow corn and the farmer across the way has monsanto products and the wind blows and pollinates the dude not using those products intentionally but now has their poison all up in their shit? Also - ' farm bill' is horseshit garbage and that the government pays farms to NOT grow things on ' their land' to control the ' mark et' prices and product. Also - the shitdick bullshit lying government of trashbaal demon whores MADE farmers grow hemp in ww2 - you got stamps and everything. Hemp is awesome - but they won't acknowledge the benifits of weed related products - for OBVIOUS greedy money control and vile selfish planet destroying reasons. And ' hemp' s diffrent from ' weed' and still 'can't' be grown here. This from the government of freemason scumfucks who know the old presidents had hemp straight on the lawns. This from the government who used hemp in their military actions etc - rope being the most obvious... MADE you grow it and now, bwahaha claims hemp is an evil product. Ya know - hypocrite lying using trash that WILL burn. ' hemp for victory'... For us, when we need it and fuck you when we don't. |
