I also have a scar on my wrist from when i snapped a drill bit in half and the other half (still spinning in the drill) went all the way into my wrist and i couldn't feel my hand for two days. Maybe we should start being more carefull....... Naw whats the fun in that, lifes more fun when you almost die a bunch of times |

Glad you didnt get seriously hurt. Not dumb, just absent minded for a split second, thats all it takes sometimes though. Youre lucky.
Anyone ever shoot arrows straight in the air when you were a kid, cmon fess up, or was I the only stupid one that did that. The adrenalin would really start pumpin when you lost sight of it and it was on the way back down, I would run away with my hands over my head. Couple times it came down right in front of me,buried 5 inches in the ground. THAT was some dumb arse chit. Throwing the Lawn darts AT your fiends was another potential Darwin award .

but if you stayed where you shot it up it would be almost impossible you have been hit . its all about trajectory .
back some years I removed the old shakes on my house and resided with new shingles . I had 2 12 foot step ladders with 2 X12 12' stretched between them . I needed a few more inches of support and moved one ladder a little too far . I dont know how long I was on the ground ( no one was home ) . but I sure had a sore head . maybe thats part of my problem . |

Stupid ladder tricks... pulled a few of those myself.. uh... never think that grabbing the aluminum gutter will stop your fall, slows ya down a bit as you pull it off the house, but it don't stop ya... don't ask me how I know this 
Glad your OK, and that you didn't "thru drill" yourself
Yeah Jake, it's a big club, easy to join too  |
