- 3 years ago, i had some newbie fly a 30 sized heli right ar me , I blocked my face with my hand the the main blade hit my thumb, dislocating it out of its joint by over 1"/// took 3 months to get my palm and thumb back to normal.
- once i dropped a sodering irong (blazing hot) on my stomach, right into my belly button hole ..
- few days ago, someone was running an engine in on a stand, and the prop ripped off and hit me 1/4 " from my right eye .. I was actually knowcked out by this !! took 7 stitches to close me up .. The prop actually chipped some bone in my skull ... I can post pics of the scar left upon request
- had a dremel carbon cutting wheel shatter once, and it went right at my eyes .. ( had the safety glasses on as always .. )
- got really dizzy from CA fumes once , and ended up spraining my ankle as i fell ( bought a fan aftger than one)
- did not have a vise, so i decided to hold something i was drilling ( forget what it was) 1/16" bit went in straight through my index finger, right through the middle of the joint ... pulling it out hurt like *%*& !!! that finger still gets stiff sometimes ...
i ended up buying a vise ..
- a couple slips of the X-acto here and there ... resulting in anoying cuts ...
YOU CAN NEVER BE SAFE ENOUGH !!
anyway, i feel your pain Garrett, hope you hand heal well ....
Maybe you ought to take up golf instead...
