Man dies after compressed air is blasted into his organs
A prank between colleagues at a factory in India ended in disaster.
Working long hours in a factory can be boring and co-workers can't be blamed for going to great lengths to find things to do to entertain themselves in quiet moments. And when you spend hours each day working with the same group of people, you're bound to build up a certain rapport with them. You get to know each other's quirks and sense of humour - it is inevitable.
That is perhaps why Aditya Jadhav didn't think anything of his colleague bringing a hose blowing compressed air close to him. CCTV footage shows the second man blowing the air on Aditya's back and hair, apparently as part of a playful prank between friends.
In fact, Aditya accepts the man's advances and even turns so that the air can properly reach his back. It is believed that workers at the factory often clean each other's clothes with the hose. But when the man puts the hose down Aditya's pants things take a tragic turn. As soon as the air hits his rear, Aditya becomes faint and falls to the ground. The other man is left confused.
A while later, Aditya is transported to the hospital where doctors discovered that the blast of high-powered air had damaged his organs.
Aditya died 15 days after being admitted to the hospital.
The man who put the hose down Aditya's pants is at large.
