LOL!
I remember my dad had a "mobile phone" in the car in the End of the 70s/B 80s, a phone with a rotary dial.
He had to "call" the company and tell them in which quadrant he was so that they could call him.
About cutting the finger to the bone.
BTDT, built a glassroof for the veranda and wanted to do that famous last little cut with the handsaw before joining dinner. Cut my index finger badly. Went in to hold it under cold water until the doctor arrives (could not help me, had to go to hospital) and my wife and son (10 at that time) nearly fainted by my vocal description of the accident. My daughter (8) on the other hand wanted to see everything in detail.
