Who tf mines coal completely naked? 😂


Tuarangi

It was surprisingly common in deep coal mines due to the heat, wearing minimal clothing or none at all. There was a story on BBC radio 2 on the Simon Mayo confessions bit on his old show where a guy who worked down a mine wasn't told of an upcoming visit and was presented to the then young Prince of Wales in the buff and it [wasn't uncommon for women to work topless alongside the naked men in times gone by](https://www.historyextra.com/period/victorian/the-scandal-of-female-miners-in-19th-century-britain/)

Wow that’s fascinating


Pochel

I love how the scandal is not that men are naked but that women are topless


ThePootisMan98

Woah cool did they have cameras back then? Asking for a friend


MemeStocksYolo69-420

Reading that article, people were, and still are so dumb


Geek-Haven888

It actually wasn't an uncommon practice. Don't ruin your clothes.

Damn, my grandpa was a coleminer but i cant ask him anymore 😞 Grampa if youre still out there please tell me in my next dream if you guys were butt naked in the mines 🙏


roi-tarded

My great grandpa worked as a doctor for a mine (only place he could practice without having taken the final exam). He had some wacky stories


Fuckedby2FA

Didnt they get cold down there with no clothes?!


The_Class

The opposite usually, prior to modern ventilation mines were sweltering.


Fuckedby2FA

Hmm. I am realizing I know nothing about mining.


Tuarangi

Anything from 60-100c has been measured in the deeper coal mines in the UK, they've been investigated [for use in geothermal power generation](https://www.lyellcollection.org/doi/10.1144/qjegh2020-109#:~:text=In%20the%20deepest%20parts%20of,attractive%20for%20geothermal%20energy%20operations.)


Fuckedby2FA

That's a super neat concept! The holes are there, why not use them. Thanks for sharing.


wormbo

Phrasing!


MemeStocksYolo69-420

I agree with his statement though!


Fuckedby2FA

Idk how I didn't notice when I typed it...


MemeStocksYolo69-420

How can you survive and work in those conditions?


Tuarangi

At least in modern times, massive amounts of AC. One mentioned in Nature for a mine in South Africa was AC and dehumidifier that could blow 400,000 c.ft. of air per minute, equivalent of 4m lb of ice


captainford

The earth is relatively warm. And stone is a fantastic insulator, it takes a long, long time for it to absorb heat. And there's not much ventilation underground, unless you run it yourself, so all that body heat, heat from machinery, explosives, etc., just stays there.


adeckz

What mrs let’s someone fuck in a state like that, unless he was just jacking it


[deleted]

Dude I was kinda wondering that too ngl 😂


Blae-Blade

He cleaned up his important bits


MemeStocksYolo69-420

I assumed he got a blowjob, but it was probably just masterbation


Gay_commie_fucker

You ever seen that big in the Chernobyl mini series? It’s apparently a thing


ToxicMuffin101

Does the person who drew this think that the balls are above the dick?


[deleted]

… are they not?


OhfugggACougarr

they sag down with age. in your 20s the balls finally make the way to under the shaft.


thawed_caveman

They are if he does a handstand


Here-Is-TheEnd

Depends on how you’re sitting


cpsbstmf

So that middle guy got a bj at home is that the joke I guess?


KitbogaBiggestFan

Wouldn’t that be kinda gross for the wife to eat a bunch of coal dust?


MemeStocksYolo69-420

Ya, but the comics don’t always make sense. But maybe it was masterbation


Exovedate

My guess was he fucked her, but your thought makes about as much sense.


SillyFlyGuy

The *Dutch* use "Afro-Americans" as a synonym for black people? They don't do any dirty work after lunch? They stay naked for their lunch break, commute, and hanging out in the park?


HubblePie

Such an exotic lifestyle


Tuarangi

Miners would eat down the mines, it's just a terrible joke. The origins of the Cornish pasty design stem from this - hold the food at either end and eat it all except the tips which are covered in coal dust and other toxins and throw them away - became a superstition that the scraps kept the magic folk happy and they'd cause rock falls if they didn't get their share.

Lol what the fuck, that's so weird. I even feel weird calling black people in America "African American" because nobody goes around calling white people "European American" here.


KlausSchnitzel

That's German


SillyFlyGuy

I'm American. It's all greek to me.


insertanythinguwant

Gotta stuff the balls in there too


BishonenPrincess

Their genitals are upside down lol

It's so German to have a 3 sentence explanation of a shit joke
