Darrel and Claire took to Safety Graphic Fun like a platypus to water. They have sent in some amazing images that make me laugh out loud the second I open their email! They will go out of their way to take pictures, risking the wrath of security guards to get a shot. For their hunting prowess they received a SGF mug and my heartfelt thanks and gratitude. Here they are, in the wilds of Australia*, Darrel and Claire!
*Okay, not quite the wilds, but the local landfill site and their own house.
Thanks Darrel and Claire! Keep up your safety graphic fun adventures!

If you read the "thanks to" line below each safety graphic, you might recognize the moniker "Fräulein M." She has sent in many a doozie of a safety graphic and has also sent very sweet and very funny emails along with them, which always made my day. After two years, SGF wouldn't be nearly as awesome without her, so I sent her a SGF mug to show my eternal gratitude. Here she is, staying safe, Fräulein M!

Two weeks ago I mentioned today's SGF 2nd anniversary and asked you to send in a photo of you with your favorite safety graphic. Of the zillions of readers of this site, only one of you came through! SGF's friend Noam from Israel sent in his pic and it really made my week.
Hooray for Noam! A Safety Graphic Mug is on its way to him as we type/read.
It's not too late! If you send in your photo with your favorite safety graphic (or any safety graphic for that matter) I will post your photo and send you a SGF item of your choice!

November 27 will mark the 2nd anniversary of my wacky website and I could not have done it without you! For all of you who have sent in awesome safety graphics, thank you. I have posted just about all of them and you have helped make this site even better than I imagined. Did you know there have been over 1100 safety graphics posted??
Now I'm asking for something slightly different...
Send me a photo of you acting out your favorite safety graphic NEXT TO that very graphic and I'll send you the SGF gift of your choice (mug, totebag or mousepad).
Send in your images by November 26 and I'll post them on the 27th.
Email the images to safetygraphicfun (@) gmail (.) com.
And while we wait, please enjoy this classic safety graphic:
Mmmm, crinkle cut fingers! Thanks Linty!

You may recall that Red Wolf was the winner of our most recent Caption Contest. Her prize was a SGF mug and she sent in this photo confirming receipt of said mug. Sweet!

Mike came up with it and all you voters LOVED it:
"Agree or disagree?...X GETS A SQUARE!!"
Mike's entry received 183 of the 373 votes sent in, just about 50%! Well done Mike. For his amazing efforts Mike will receive his very own SGF coffee mug.
I would also like to give an Honorable Mention Jen who sent in the caption:
"Spleen! X marks the spot."
While it did not get nearly the votes that Mike's did, it made me laugh the hardest. Thanks for that, Jen!
Thanks to everyone who sent in captions and to all of you who voted.
Stay safe!

Darrel T sent this strange and wondrous safety graphic and I made a contest out of it.
66 of you wonderful fans sent in your own captions. Thanks for all who entered!
I have reduced the 66 entries to 10 finalists and 2 Honorable Mentions.
The Honorable Mentions are:
Don't do shrooms at work. Posted by MD. (This is alway just good advice.)
Airwolf strikes again. Posted by Travis C. (I had to honorably mention this because I don't know exactly how it applies to the graphic, but Airwolf was one of my all time favorite shows as a kid.)
On to the Finalists! Please click the link to the survey (below) to vote for your favorite of the finalists. Voting will remain open until Friday, October 9. I will announce the winner next weekend!
For your consideration:
Do not kick Zeus's balls.
Beware: As zombie hordes trip infrared beams (indicated by the red arrow), avoid standing to close to the imminent lightning strike.
CAUTION: Do not use safety arrow to climb over wall; your testicles will be electrified.
Stepping on the pinball lever will cause electrocution!!
Do not use bent stripper pole when God and Satan are in a heated ping-pong match.
When stepping off lightning, use levitating balls properly
Do not Kung-foo the happy fun balls near IN-N-OUT Burger
Beware cherry kicking zombies may cause lightning strikes.
Beware of too many symbols!
Warning, severe electrical shocks from overhead will cause expulsion of your testicles.
