Someone is gonna eat that cheese and have no idea that it killed somebody
Missed marketing oportunity to sell Killer Cheese at a 50%-100% markup.
I feel sorry for the guy. To be crushed by multiple 40kg blocks of anything isn’t funny.
On a lighter side: one of the reasons that people prepare those traditional cheeses is out of love. Death is death but at least he died doing something that he likely enjoyed - cheeses, that bring joy to families out there, having their meals. May he rest in peace.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
An Italian man has been crushed to death under thousands of wheels of a Parmesan-style cheese, authorities said.
Giacomo Chiapparini, 74, was buried when a shelf broke in his warehouse in the Lombardy region on Sunday, firefighter Antonion Dusi told AFP.
The collapse created a domino effect bringing down thousands of wheels, which weigh about 40kg (84lbs) each.
Some of the wheels reportedly fell about 10m (33ft) and a local resident told Italian media the collapse sounded “like thunder”.
Speaking to Italian media, a neighbour described Mr Chiapparini as “very supportive… and generous”.
The warehouse, located in Romano di Lombardia, about 50km (31 miles) east of Milan, contained a total of 25,000 wheels of Grana Padano, a hard cheese which resembles Parmesan and is popular in Italy.
I’m a bot and I’m open source!
The title summarized it much better. However, you are still a good bot.
I feel sad that this what news have become…why is this news worth of some many articles…Plenty of other deaths by industrial accidents that they don’t get this kind of treatment…
I know, it’s a funny way to go…but come on…specially the family I don’t think will be very happy about this.
