Hazard Highlighted Checklist

One of the three of the highlighted red i have chosen is 'water/proximity to water/tanks' this would appeal to a show like 'total wipe out' because water is used a lot in a show like 'total wipe out'. When contestants fall of the props they always land in water. The water is highlighted red due to the risk assessed with it, water effectively can lead to death and therefore is a major risk leading to a large insurance payments and highlighting it as a 'red'. An example of this in 'total wipe out' is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BmyaoAipf_Y&safe=active

Another one would be 'working at height' due to the activities often seen in 'total wipe out' include activities high up, falling can also cause serious injury or death. As involved with height a lot this would be a major insurance issue with the show. This would be a main insurance point of the how being one of the most serious due to injury often occurring. An example of this happening can be seen in the link below: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovwgPVnCNds&safe=active

The risks highlighted red are normally linked with the more serious issues which can resort in serious injury or death such as drowning, fire etc. Another incident which for 'total wipe out' would be highlighted red and seen as a serious risk would be 'live electrical equipment' this would be a high risk for total wipe out as a lot of cameras, microphones are used around water, this increases the risk more and can potentially fatal. This would also be a high insurance fee and examples of this can be seen in both the clips above.
