Shouldn't they have noticed that they couldn't hear the canary when Snow White took it?

You can see the tweeting from the canary in the first four panels showing they can still hear it singing with Snow White from outside the mine, leading them to not realize that there had been a gas leak

If Terry Crews was playing the princess this wouldn't have happened.

Author doesn't understand how the canaries are used.

[-] Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 15 points 1 year ago

Lol.

Commentor probably never set foot in/on a mine. I realize the whole purpose is that the lack of noise indicates danger. Cannaries have been replaced by 4 head gas monitors.

If you do actually want to talk mining, though, I'm your guy.

[-] Seventhlevin@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Why do the monitors need four heads?

[-] Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 6 points 1 year ago

Explosive gases, H2S, oxygen and carbon monoxide

[-] Redjard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 year ago

I imagine it would be a problem if there was oxygen

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 1 points 1 year ago

Don't you know how flammable that stuff is?!

[-] JokeDeity@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Well with that charming personality, who wouldn't.

As the deranged physicist says:
