Not always. I came upon a co-worker once who was holding his arm. He had been nailing something into a wooden floor when the nail hit a rock that lay beneath the wooden tiles, ricocheted, and buried itself in his arm.

Then there are the stories I've heard of folks who tried using a nail gun on an office wall only to narrowly miss shooting the people who worked in the next office over.

I just reported your post to a moderator.

Well, actually, I just sent Dr. Drib a PM a link to it! I imagine he'll get a real kick from that. That's the funniest sports commentary I've ever heard.

I was qualified years ago when it was my job to repair them, but no longer. I haven't seen a Hilty in years.

It's not a video. You have to read it. And I mean that. Starting at the 3:45 mark in the text, you have to read it!

I'm not a sports fan, either; but you have to read it!

Yes but you never hear about the destroyed hands and fingers from hammer blows because they're less spectacular... They really happen more often.

True. Hammers and saws. It's rare to meet a longtime carpenter with the same average number of digits as the general population.
