Can confirm.

That's how I watched it today. Except I had the glass piece by itself and used it with my regular glasses on. Worked really well.

Weldetss always have good arms

Burn with me!

Watched it mostly though 12's. My eyes are fine, no spots. Although the one 14 we had to share was much more pleasant viewing.
Bladeroller
I'm in Montreal so we only saw it 60% covered.But at the peak I just donned my darkest shades and took a split second peek.Can still see it.
frankreynoldsthefrogkid
I hope all of you welders had grade 14 lenses
FalcorTheUrinator
Where is everyone getting 14??? NASA said that 12 or higher is fine. Most welding helmets go to 13 which is optimal.
kgirl2601
I need to become a welder...mrowww...
ITryToOnlyRespondInGifs
Why am I suddenly into welders?
JesterOfShadows
Burn with me...
Eearslya
So glad I'm not alone in thinking that.
TOTPK
Yup
JunglePygmy
Hopefully they have masks with a Shade 12, or higher! NASA says anything between 12 and 14 is safe to use for sun-starin'...
BNabs
Welders a good idea
thelostg
Weld done
Uberdude100
I knew nothing about welding til the last few days. But because imgur, i know i need a grade 14 eye mask thingy to stare at the sun.
Dickfitzwelll
Oh for Christ sake stop being pussies, put a fucking 9 or 10 in and don't stare at the son of a bitch for 45 minutes. Look.... Take a break.

The goggles, they do nothing

I would suck 3 out of 4 of those idiots.
ConfusedFlareon
I'm sorry, but it's the sun, not Medusa. If the risk was as high as everyone is screaming it is, wouldn't a LOT more people be blind??
ThatAssholeOverThere
Not fully blind, but "blind". Your eyes will be badly damaged because you can look at the sun longer than usual but the sun's still bright
GassyWizard
without the context and some light photoshopping, this could look incredibly unnerving
SabreMetalPanzer
"Light" photoshopping. Quite the unintended pun, I assume?
meely93
Do your worst @GassyWizard
GassyWizard
I don't have any Photoshop skill, but the good folks over at /r/Photoshop battles do

TinyNutThief

Logan9Fingers

gewalt
heeeeeeeeeeeyyyyyy
AlexxStratten
Just use a TIGgh crop to clean up any photos of them.
Logan9Fingers
I just have to find them first. My desktop files looks like an ARCeologic dig site right now.
PrivateNoodles
BOO!
GDSTEVE
Welding masks are typically rated to 12, but 14 is required for sun watching. Not like these guys eyeballs don't already itch at night.
biohazard918
No its not. I don't under stand where people are getting this its 12 to 14 with 13 being optimal according to nasa.
flyingskejaquita
This needs to be made into a painting

Alternately, how welders look at everything.

"Natural filters"
dumbgaybatman
Seems unsafe?
root1657
Actually safer... Keeps hot flash off yer neck.
SecondSince
That's mandatory for welders. Part of the training is learning to grow and tend to a beard. If you can't grow one, one will be provided.
AdrianDunne
Flame retardant beards.
TacticalL0tion
They grow on us, the extra light helps growth
HaroldLostHisPurpleCrayon
Every welder I know has a beard. It's part of the job.
CardioVascular
Welders are hot.

It's not the eclipse of the century lmfao. Just the first total one in the states for a while. Happens really frequently around the world.

This needs it's own post.

I want to criticize, but I did the same thing today a few times.

So did I, and it doesn't do anything if you just look for a second

1s is just bleached proteins, 20s later tissue cycled naturally. But keep it up, the photoreactive chems get less stable, form radicals, bad

crankyoldgeezer
I also think all welders dress this way
CanadianLadyMoose
In my experience, they do
Tofubutton
Poorly?
crankyoldgeezer
No, black tee, no sleeves and jeans
Apocalypsox
As a welder....Well, shit. You may be on to something.
SirHankMoody
Without sleeves?
crankyoldgeezer
Yep & black tee, jeans
Heydudewhatup
Can confirm. Even in highschool shop class.
AlwaysPuffin
I bet they all have the sleeve
MakeTabbouleNotWar
Can confirm husband has ripped off all his sleeves.
iGotFatJesus
I am a lady welder and I do not dress this way. I wear sleeves. I'm not too reckless
AzerilPridham
my boobs get well covered but I would wear short sleeves
dentros1
I dont wear sleeves if I'm doing light tig welding on SS
ICallBullshit
Enjoy the skin cancer
SergeiBoobtitsky
I'm a big dude and I wear sleeves too. Burning hot sparks burn.
crankyoldgeezer
I learned torn jeans at the knees 90's style made for a painful experience
SergeiBoobtitsky
I've lit my pants on fire like that.

A molten glob of stainless will turn the biggest man into a cursing baby lol

PudgyPinkiePie
Well yeah, gotta be more careful because of the whole, hot metal hopping in Victoria's Secret Compartment thing
iGotFatJesus
I got lazy and decided to sit down while welding overhead (tight spot) anyways I long arced and it went through my pants and burned my ass
LimeMime565
And I thought your ass couldn't get any hotter
