I had a similar experience Sam Adams though I think more painful. I was removing a big ole swimmer plug from a nasty chopper, using pliers as I'm supposed to when this thing gives a nasty kick. He shakes loose from my grip and flips toward my chest. The loose treble from the plug hooks into my gut, in and through with enough meat to hold up the blue without tearing free. Needless to say he's still kciking and all I can do is try to grab hold of him and hold on while he calms down. Had to keep my whits about me as I tried to decide which hook to take out first. The one in him or the one in me. Anyway, took his out first and then carefully removed the other. I don't recommend the experience.
