When notified by the foreman, his wife said at least it was quick. The foreman said he was not sure as the man got out twice to use the restroom.

Yelling "Fire!" worked for Tommy Smothers when he fell into a vat of chocolate - might have worked for the poor coffee vat guy.

Seven men dove in to save him but he fought them off bravely. They cremated his body and it took them a week to put out the fire."

When they asked his co-worker whether he died instantly, he said, "I'm pretty sure he didn't. He got out three times to pee.".
