I remember seeing the Remember Charlie videos very early in my career and it was very eye opening, well told and reaching into some places that most people do not associate with a workplace accident.

One of the best presentations I have attended. Charlie provides a message that each of us needs hear.

I was shown your video, I guess, about 15 years ago. Still sticks with me. Such a powerful story and of course the aftermath at home is a big of the picture that people tend to neglect when talking about injuries at work. Thanks for being courageous enough to live though it and share your story.

Charlie: I have been a Safety Manager for more years than I care to count. In this capacity, I couldn’t tell you how many safety videos I have presented to various groups. But, I have never had a video touch people that way your story does. It is a very powerful message delivered with bulls-eye accuracy. I am the safety manager for a glass manufacturing facility with seasoned United Steel Workers. They are usually a rowdy bunch to reach via any medium. I was surprised at what an impression you had on them. Several “hardcore” types come up to me after the meeting and told me how they saw themselves in you. Thanks for sharing your story!

As a contractor for one of the major oil companies, we had to attend their company’s 8 hour safety training in addition to the training we already had. I did not look forward to it but was blown away with the Remember Charlie video. Although all of the training was great, your video alone was well worth it. I will never again feel awkward about following safety rules nor will I be silent when I see others who carelessly or willfully endanger themselves or others. You have no doubt saved lives and prevented many injuries. You were not a hero for what you did that led up to the accident but you have become one by taking responsibility for your actions and your life and then telling it so others can avoid the hell you experienced. Thanks Charlie for telling your story in such a powerful way.

As a Police Officer and Paramedic I always took safety seriously. Then I had the opportunity to watch “Remember Charlie” when I became a fuel hauler. The film was required viewing in order to receive your loading card at the Chevron Refinery in Pascagoula Ms. From the very first moment after hearing Charlies testimony I took an introspective look at myself and decided right then that I wanted a carrier in safety to spread the message that we ALL needed to come home safely every time. No Speech, No film, No academy I attended ever drove the point home to me as did watching Charlies film and hearing his testimony. That was in the very early 2000’s. Thank You Charlie, I now speak about you often in my training classes. God Speed!

Hi Charlie! How are you doing? You don’t know me, but I know your story and been telling people for about 15 years! Very pleased about that.

I saw your video over 20 years ago and can still remember how your accident happened. Stories are the things that people can remember best of all and hopefully make a change because of stories. Thanks again.

Our entire company is required to watch this video. It is safety week here at Palram. This company always states SAFETY IS NUMBER ONE. After watching this video I think we all understand the importance of safety not only at the work place but in everyday life. Charlie is truly inspirational. This is a video that I feel has not only changed my life but many others. Fantastic job and I truly thank you for sharing!
