I was under the car last week when the cutting disk exploded because i caught the other side on the gearbox mount. I could so easily have been that guy. Great thing about face masks is they give some protection to the throat. Four inches lower and that guy would be dead.

I've had splinters or beads of molten steel removed from my cornea twice now, with a hypodermic needle. On one occasion I let it rust and they drilled a crater of my cornea out around it because the rust can cause problems, apparently.

But PPE can be dangerous in itself. Yesterday I was using an electric chainsaw with goggles on and cut through the cable. With ear defenders I was concerned something could fall on me and me not hear it coming.

It's our job to destroy ourselves. Men are the dispensable sex. We do the risky harmful and dangerous stuff so women and children don't have to. They can if they want to, of course, but we thrive on it.
