Best wishes to his family. At home, drawers and other furniture tragically crushes babies once every two weeks in the U.S. If you have small children, as part of your baby/childproofing, buy and use anti-tip or furniture straps to prevent this kind of thing happening.
As for occupational hazards, this is a stark reminder of the risk behind storing large amounts of anything, including grain silo entrapment, flammable material storage, and even the Beirut explosion. I can legitimately say that manufacturing flour is perhaps the most dangerous food to produce at mass scale. As for weight, ss soon as over 100lbs/50kg goes over your head, make sure you have sufficient structural stability in your shelf.

Not the Dragonborn…

Let me guess. Someone stole your thousands of cheese wheels?
-
This incident has Sheogorath written all over it, though.
-
And the CHEESE

I imagine this is to Italians as dying gloriously in battle is for vikings. He went to the great kitchen in the sky.

Let the cheesy puns begin!

I was going to go with a simple, tasteful remark such as "Mamma Mia!"
-
Say cheese... and uhh... that's all I got.
-
That was wheelie cheesy but someone had to do it!
-
-
Rest in... cheese
-
-
This is how I want to go out. A burial fit for a king indeed.
-
Considering the size of those wheels, I feel like it'd only take two or three. They are massive and that is terrifying.
-
If it were American "cheese" he'd be preserved for a millenia!
-
Italian equivalent of failed Russian window
-
Think he'll smell like pizza when they cremate him?
-
So all cheeses are the same to you, huh? Racist.
-
It's ok, some of my best friends are cheeses.

That definitely ranks higher than being killed by 30,000 lbs of bananas. I wonder if we'll get a song from this tragedy as well.
-
There's a song about being crushed by bananas? 😳
-
There's a true story behind the song:

This how the cheese wants to broken

Good night, sweet King.

My condolences to his family, that must have been a horrifying experience and I'm sorry for their loss. Human moment out of the way, I almost thought this was an Onion article. That headline is hysterical.
If we don't truly die until we're forgotten by the living, he's gonna live a long time as the ancestor that passed away at the hands of cheese wheels.
That's a very philosophically positive way of thinking about it!
He's going to haunt those hallowed cheese halls. Some one bust out the Luigi board.
He'll be reposted for all of eternity
Yeah, I sort of feel like something like this would be a horrifying death process followed by an afterlife of "yeah, ok, that was a pretty funny way to go out."
You can only hope that the end arrives quickly with something like this.
Does anyone know if there is a nottheonion community on lemmy?

I didn't find a Not the Cheese and Onion community though
