    I had no idea factories were that dangerous:

    …documents from the rescue centers also documented that Tesla boss Elon Musk’s factory requested an ambulance or helicopter 247 times in the first year after opening alone.

    Holy shit! That seems insane. Just another ambulance or helicopter showing up almost daily. Then:

    For comparison: Converted to the number of employees, this is three times as many emergencies – in a similar period of time – as occurred, for example, at the Audi factory in Ingolstadt.

    OK, 1/3 is a lot less of course, but even that seems like a crazy high level. I’ve worked in warehouses before, and we’d end up with an ambulance maybe a couple of times a year.
