## Scene 8: Bystander Hazards

Walter: (offscreen) "Bystander Hazards. bystander hazards affect the people around you, whether they're are co-workers, clients, or people passing by."

Text shows Personal Hazards and Caleb stops dust busting

Walter: (offscreen) "First and foremost, you don't want to hit anyone with the dust buster handle, or motor. so be on the lookout for people as you dust bust. it's a good general to make sure people, whether bystanders or helpers are at least 50 feet away if you're working with the dust buster. the motor can pick up debris like coins, objects, and pieces of metal a long way, which is a potential hazard for you, and others around you."

Caleb waves a person through, then, Allen waves Caleb through who is working, then, Caleb gets 2 people out of his work area before he resumes working

Walter: (offscreen) "Do a site check before you work to minimize the chances of debris getting thrown. never allow children to use the dust buster, or be near the dust buster when in use. kids are sometimes interested in the machine and may come to close. even if the motor is turned off, the parts may be hot."

Videos show what Fozzie Bear describes
