# Toolbox talk from a real near miss
Something nearly went wrong on this site and you want a five-minute talk that lands with the crew,
rather than a generic briefing they have heard ten times.

- `{{audience}}`
- `{{changes_made}}`
- `{{location_and_time}}`
- `{{near_miss_description}}`
- `{{potential_outcome}}`

What we changed afterwards: {{changes_made}}
Audience: {{audience}}

1. What happened, told straight, including how ordinary the start of it was.
2. What would have had to be different for someone to be hurt.
3. The two things this crew should do differently, stated as actions rather than rules.
4. One question to ask the crew, so they talk rather than listen.
Keep it under 250 words, spoken language, no jargon and no blaming anyone. Do not name
the individual involved.
```
## What good output looks like

- Gives two concrete actions rather than a list of rules.
- Ends with a question, turning a briefing into a conver
