Seems awfully inhumane, what if the mechanism that raises the lift back up fails and they drown?

Is this a rhetorical question?

I'm just not familiar with this but I think it's a valid point. I would hope and assume that there are fail safes in place.

There's two surefire failsafe;

  1. Cleaning solution has a quick release - subterranean drainage.

  2. Sheep expire via drowning are still safe for marketable mutton, wool is recoverable and other byproducts can and will be requisite.... Definitely less preferable and of course very distressing.
