If you ever wondered why I have PTSD this video may help put it into perspective. The first part is the exact machine I operated underground. It's called the 1700g cat scoop tram
Cmon dude. Be a man. Get up and shake it off. I've been mining for almost 30 years now. Been in some damn close calls and lost more than my share of friends. PTSD is a choice. Don't choose it.
I actually been in a scenario where the back the walls everything come down on my scoop from the mid ship to the bucket a old stope fluffed off a lot of ground and I was mucking beside it .scary. I came out without a scratch. Someone was looking out for me that day. Most of those machines were remote mucking so no harm to operator. Thanks to remote control
