    I work in a chemical plant, and as much as we make fun of OSHA for having over the top regulations, remember that every guideline has been written after the fact, usually in blood.

    Objection! In order for magma to be a flammable liquid it would need to be capable of rapid exothermic oxidization - in other words, combustion.

    "There is a large ape" At the very least that entire stage is a gigantic AZA violation. The enclosure (the stage in this case) is obviously hazardous, there's no enclosing fence or barrier, it looks nothing like the natural habitat of a gorilla, the gorilla is not in an appropriate social group, I'm honestly not sure if barrels would be good enrichment items in this case but jacks definitely aren't, and there are members of the general public in direct contact with an animal with no staff supervision present. Smash Bros. will never get AZA accredited if they keep this up.

    As an Environmental Health and Safety Director I will say he got pretty close. However in all honesty the real pain sets in when you realize that these fines can be calculated per exposure. That means that the fine adds up for per employee per instance that an employee was exposed for the duration that that hazard has existed. All of that is per violation. Now that is a hefty bill! Oh and can't forget about the jail time for willful violations.

      I am also glad they made these laws, I'm actually studying a course about U.S. history after the Civil War, and let me tell you it wasn't pretty during the Industrial Revolution. For example, elevators didn't have doors, and one time a child who was working there (another issue altogether) snuck on, and was laying on the floor to avoid being caught and her head got caught between a ledge or something as it was moving up, and you can imagine what happened. She was also blamed for her own death afterwards so the industry could avoid giving compensation (typical). Not to mention all the accidents with the machinery which cause limbs and lives to be taken as well. Also worth noting they were working very long hours and men were paid a dollar a day, women and children were paid even less.
      Additionally, poor civilians (mostly immigrations) were living in cramped, dirty and structurally unsound apartment buildings, even with other families because they can't afford to live somewhere better. There were safer and cleaner tenant buildings made later, but the regulations were ridiculously strict and biased that the landowner could kick them out for basically no reason. So essentially, living and working conditions of the working class were horrible.
      This turned into a brief history lesson, sorry about that, but I think I got my point across.

    1) you can disable hazards, so they at least made a step toward safety
    2) all stages have a flat variation, which is another step toward getting rid of alot of these violations
    3) Ultimate isn't the first iteration of this series so all non-new stages count as "repeated"...probably

      Honestly, it's Cloud pretty heavily, he's the only one where his hair is specifically, even in modern graphics (i.e. Dissidia), modeled to be totally nuts. The worst anyone else gets is a fairly specific style, I can't imagine someone like Squall maintains it to that degree.
      Lightning might beat him in terms of overall time and money spent rather than morning routine time, though. That is a lot of hair to keep up a permanent dye job on, and I think a complex haircut is doing most of the heavy lifting in the hairstyle department.

    Just for the record, Boxing Ring is also in violation of OSHA. According to 1926.855(f) (the manual removal of floors), "when floor arches are being removed, employees shall not be allowed in the area directly underneath, and such an area shall be barricaded to prevent access to it." In Boxing Ring, there is an arch hanging directly above the ring where the fighters will most often be located, and it can be easily destroyed and knocked down onto our poor boys. Violation. We can then see how Boxing Ring is not "the only stage that is OSHA compliant," as Brian seems to claim in his exposé. Nonetheless, this is a very important video for the labor rights of all of our favorite magical combatants.
