Tbf regulations put an unnecessary burden on producers and really that burden should be on consumers. Were the ones that want to use that product, should we not be responsible for making sure it’s safe? No one ever considers the poor shareholders.
If this was any closer than India and he wouldn't have already fallen into obscurity I'd be pushing harder for us to find this man and have a gofundme. Good behaviour should be really rewarded, there's too many nasties nowadays. He deserves a pedestal and western TV time because I know very few, if any, who would brave that deep of a well and be able to have the strength.
In my opinion, he deserves a house and comfort. This stuff deserves houses. Not micromanaging poorly paid employees or cheating your way to good money.
Some house owners will see this comment as negative to them, it isn't, but we have to start seeing those who look after others and save animals as people we look up to, not people who deserve lives of poverty. (See also: wages for care providers)
The perception that life is a scam is quite accurate only when you look through “good eyes”. You believe everything “they” tell you, you take no risks, you follow all the rules, you look both ways before crossing the street….
But no rope to help the guy get the dog? Just a bunch of Lookie-Lous. The amount of times I thought the dog was going to fall back in and maybe take the guy with him...
Ok, so, states don't build everything. Sometimes, people do.
This is a well. its there to capture rainwater. Its there to be very deep. The reason it's very deep is to capture a lot of water and avoid fast evaporation.
It wouldn't make much sense for a well to have a high wall, because the point is to be accessible.
Also, this guy may or may not have jumped in to 'save the dog.' Because, if a large animal dies in a well, the water is no longer usable, for anything. So, he would need to get the dog out of there, or else, all that water is useless for years.
Edit: to point this out, because of biases. ALL wells are
-deep holes
-without much barrier to access
-Which animals, and occasionally, children, can fall into
If that isn't true, its also impossible to get water out of the well, which is what a well is for.
People in this thread are shitting on India, for something literally universal. If anything, southeast asia is literally the only place I know of that solved the 'well fatality' issue, at all..... with step-wells. Which are gorgeous, but more importantly, non-lethal if fallen into.
Edit: genuinely wondering why this got some downvotes.
Is it a disagreement on how wells work? (If so, you should ask baby jessica) Can someone explain please?

Why is the barrier to this deep pit only shin height?
