Am I gonna die from hitting an asbestos ceiling with a tv antenna?
Monday, May 25th, 2009Henry asked:
The other day I was trying to extend an antenna and I was keeping it when the tip accidentally hit my ceiling popcorn. This ceiling has asbestos. It was built in 70 'original, and if the asbestos had been used as a flame retardant. Now I 'm. scared to death that I 'm. going to die from cancer or something. So that risk is to miners and shipyard workers, but it is possible I could get cancer just barely in contact and make it release the fibers? Must happen before, hasn 't it? I mean am I the only one in my entire condominium complex (200 apartments or so) who accidentally hit the ceiling? Are condemned? PLEASE HELP! I 'M really frightened and appreciates all the answers. Thanks types
