    ...he was mowing the lawn and heard a rattle. He bent down a grasped it by the side to turn it over... ...and cut two fingers off. :laugh: The ends are now pinned back on, and some skin grafts have taken care of the missing bits. Its almost Darwin Award material this! :) What a dick!

Lindzen, Atmospheric Physicist, IPCC "It does not matter who you are, or how smart you are, or what title you have, or how many of you here are, and certainly not how many papers your side has published, if your prediction is wrong then your hypothesis is wrong.

        Next time tell him to remember the baby is in the crib! Not under the mower! (A stretch...I know.)

            Almost a bad a guy who I knew. He collected the autumn leave into a pile at the bottom of his garden. Dowsed the new formed pile with petrol and went back to the house to get the matches... When he eventually arrived to work, his face and hand were still rad with flash burns.

                          now that just sounds painful. one question though. ok i get everything was crushed pretty much but how did his dang skull make it through without crushing?I mean a 5 inch hole. that would be a tiny dang head to get through that in one piece.

                              He obviously did not read the sign on the mower telling him not to put hands or feet under the mower. Some guy tried to mow his hedge and after cutting his fingers off sued and won. Thus the note that use to say feet now says hands and feet.

                                      Reminds me of the time I got my finger stuck in a soda can... I thought I was gonna lose my finger for sure!

                                        Almost a bad a guy who I knew. He collected the autumn leave into a pile at the bottom of his garden. Dowsed the new formed pile with petrol and went back to the house to get the matches... When he eventually arrived to work, his face and hand were still rad with flash burns.

                                        Those pesky vapors. Yes. But I was standing far enough away that the only real damage done was to my reputation for being smarter than a tree.

                                          The bleeding edge of lawn maintenance it seems.
