[QUOTE="tommyk90, post: 162906, member: 545293"] My father is the epidemy of accidents. He works on semis for a living so accidents occur more often than necessary. Here's a list of ones i can remember 1. Was drilling a hole in a frame of a truck, the drill kicked out, got stuck in his arm, and continued to spin into his arm, wrapping his skin around the drill bit. 2. Was hammering something, raised his arm back to pound the metal, got the hammer stuck in the fender of a truck, forced the hammer out, and proceeded to smash his own hand. 3. Was working with some sharp metal, a heavy piece fell on his hand, cutting 3/4 of his right hand ring finger off. 4. Gave himself a hernia (sp.) trying to move his toolbox. He realized it was heavy, but not that heavy. Actually found out that it weighs over a ton. It takes a forklift to move it. 5. Dislocated his shoulder trying to torque down a wheel bolt on a piece of farm equipment. 6. Hurt his back trying to lift a monster truck tire (around 800 pounds i think) onto an axle of a farm truck. 7. Has had surgery on both hands for carpel-tunnel syndrome. 8. Broken various knuckles by using air rachets. Worthless tool if you ask me. 9. Was cutting a piece of metal when some shrapnel flew off of a metal sheet into his eyeball. Part of his eyeball had to be removed. 10. Dropped so many things on his head i'm surprised he can remember his own name. 11. Broke his arm when a truck fender fell on him. These are the only ones i can think of right now, i'll ask him sometime and maybe see if i can get a few more out of him. [/QUOTE]
