Too easy to get your hand caught in the injector port.
How were you taught? (FYI it's the "ejection port").

Racking a slide that way is a gross motor movement that can still be performed under stress. Notice he is not riding the slide forward but instead letting his hand come off the back as he releases ("slingshots") it. No way for the fingers to get caught.
