Today we hosted "Meet M.E." here at Texas Tech. It's an event where middle school kids from around the city come to Tech and tour all the Mechanical Engineering labs. We had them do a wind tunnel competition etc etc., But the funniest shit ever happened when we took the group of kids to see the CNC mills.
So we are showing them how the mills work and the kids are all huddled in a big group trying to look in the little glass windows on the sliding CNC mill doors. Well this other guy Troy opens up the mill doors so that they kids can see better after the machine was done running. The kids all huddle closer. He then explains that the liquid spraying all over in there was to keep the parts from over heating and right as he said that the oil/water coolant jet BLASTS A KID IN THE FACE!!! It was by far the funniest shit I've seen in years.
We joked about how he must have bumped the "blast-kid-in-face button" on the control panel. Supposedly it was an automatic function to clear the line but whatever. Anyways, funny shit, you shoulda been there.
CLIFFS:
-Middle schoolers at college.
-CNC mill coolant jet owns kid in the face.
-Much laughter.
