A Question Of Safety
Life involves a certain (1) amount of risk, or at least it did. These days,
however, governments seem to have become (2) obsessed with the idea of
protecting us from it. As a result, what we actually risk most is not being allowed
to live at all. For example, take a recent edict which emerged from the Cambodia
government’s (3) health and safety department. It would be amusing if it wasn’t
so serious.
Circus artistes performing on tightropes or the flying trapeze are being (4)
required to wear the type of hard hats more usually associated with the
construction industry. Under a relatively new law known as ‘(5) temporary work
at heights directive’, such a hat must be worn for any working activity taking (6)
place above the height of an ‘average stepladder’.
Now you think that sounds fairly (7) reasonable, but the absurd thing is
that the rule is being applied to circus perform as well. The first to be hit by this
rule were baffled (8) members of the government circus, who were touring
Cambodia at that time used to fly (9) through the air without even the benefit of a
safety net, they pointed out that trapeze artistes often (10) break arms and legs,
but rarely heads. This simple fact was apparently lost on the bureaucrats at the
government department, however, who (11) insisted that the rule be followed.
