I go where I please, and I please where I go

It's funny, you think the major cause of injuries like this would be in idustry, but the truth is, almost any dangerous machine is so covered in safety features (It's cheaper than workers compo) that almost all accidents like this are silly little ones that you'd never predict happening. I once worked in a print shop and we had a pneumatic guillotine (coolest. thing. ever) for cutting 500 sheets of paper at once. The thing was *too* safe if you ask me, the thing had two switches (so you couldn't stick your arm in and activate it at the same time) and *actual lasers* to stop anything getting inside the cutting area (such as bastard co-worker).

But seriously, ouch.

    Pneumatic Guillotine? ... WANT!

    Seriously though, there's a reason you shouldn't not sleep for 24 hours and then use razor blades. This is it. :P
