Their co-workers tried to rescue them, but they fought them off bravely

“the workers were not authorized to work in the tanks and weren’t trained on the proper safety procedures for the equipment.”
...still. How do you fall into a vat of chocolate unless you’re trying to reach down for some?

The same way some steel workers used to fall into the molten steel ladles - you get drunk on your lunch break.

“Emergency responders were able to free the pair by cutting a hole in the bottom of the tank, officials said. Both were taken to hospitals, one by helicopter.”

Lots of old mill workers in this part of Pennsylvania. A few old timers told me that some jobs in the steel mills were so dangerous that drinking was encouraged for a particular job.

Old story....but a true story.
Way back when my Mom was a kid....
My Mom and her brother were playing in their backyard. Her brother was teasing her...that he had a candy bar..and that she didn't. My Mom said he was relentless....
Well finally he peeled the wrapper off and bit into it...
My Mom said he turned green....HA!! There was part of a finger in that Clark bar.....
