At a place I once worked, we had a galvenised de-greasing tank that needed welding. The maintenance fitter refused to do it so the MD who was a bit impulsive said he would do it. There were clouds of whitish fume and the MD ended up in hospital and was off work for weeks. He was only welding for about 15 minutes and not in an enclosed space.

A few months back I laid about 2 feet of weld on some scaffold tube which of course is galvanised, I finished the weld stood up and went over backwards!
