I guess the timeline suggests maybe they never expected him to go in, until the wife called out to him.
Maybe he's a big dude and it was just under his shirt/vest or something?
When I look up "weight training necklace" it looks like a weight disk at the end of some rope, so maybe it wasn't particularly apparent from the technicians view.
Obviously, not excusing the tech here at all.

I guess there's no guarantee anyone would learn that but fuuuuck. What a way to go.
- CoastalCoder 1y agoNot sure how representative I am here, but I had no idea that the magnets were powered up except during the scan. My layman's understanding was that they always kept the superconductors fully chilled, but I assumed they only ran electricity through them when needed. Only as I'm writing this does it occur to me that because of the superconduction, the magnets will remain energized for a very long time unless intentionally discharged.
