May be apocyphal, but does explain why all the Health and Safety
regulations
in the construction industry require big logos of things like giant sparks,
rather than just the text...

OT digression: there was a case in France where a bloke electrified
his safe after a spate of burglaries. He stuck a big notice on it
warning of the risk. House gets burgled again, burglar is
electrocuted, police investigate, and discover burglar is illiterate.
House owner is done for manslaughter/murder.
Most likely UL, but a nice story.
