How does that happen?

Well, I'm not really sure, it all happened really fast. I guess when the airbag popped out, it slid across my hand. It's like carpet burn.

That blows man. Sorry to hear. I've been in an accident where the other person was a doucherocket and tried to make my life a living hell also. Me being 18 and him 40 or so, he succeeded...

3rd degree carpet burn?
That's insane crazy, yo.

lol, I don't think you can get a 3rd degree burn from a carpet burn. It was just an example.

an airbag burnt most of my forearm about 6 years ago. with me it was really more like a wicked rugburn but it was still fleshy in some spots... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

I've seen someone with 2nd and 3rd degree burns across their whole face, forearms, and upper chest from an airbag. The airbag went off as she was pulling out of her driveway for no reason. She got lots of money from the car company.

I've never been hit by one, but I have seen them go off...

You have to be careful putting a 40 Watt Two-Way radio in a car with Airbags... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

Good thing it wasn't me that it happened to, I was just watching...

Yeah, it was pretty intense. She didn't come in to school for 2 weeks and she still looked pretty bad when she came back.

I knew a lady who got a massive black eye and a bruised rib from being in a 30 MPH wreck, thanks all to the airbag...
