I'm OK with this as long as she's wearing closed-toed footwear.

Some times the easiest way to do something is sticking your hands were they shouldn't go. Like my dad who one day needed grease some gears on a crane. The easiest way to do this on older cranes is with the crane running and the gears turning. Did it hundred times over the 30+ years working on cranes and it was fine except the last time when he got distracted and the tip of his index finger caught in the gears. He said it was stuck so he gave it a yank which pulled the finger tip off and ripped the whole tendon out of his forearm.

Was he going to lose a lot more than that if he didn’t yank his tendon out?

He never said but I could see it pulling his hand into the winch if he didn't. I'd have to see where it happened in the machine to know for sure. He did however say there was a little chunk of meat hanging on the end of the tendon. He wanted them to cut the rest of the finger off but the doctors refused.

The percussive maintenance at the end is like the icing on the cake. Surprised nobody ended with a shard of something sticking out of their chest.

It would do one 'bip' randomly in a range of once a day to once a month. Hid it in a curtain rod and got months of satisfaction watching my target slowly descend into insanity. It was payback for the classic 'hiding prawn heads'

My dad likes to tell a story of mechanical engineering students in the 70s getting their hands on some lab's laser and painting a dot on the ground in front of people as they walked around campus. IIRC they figured out to make it about a foot wide so lessen the chance of blinding people.

https://www.motorsport.com/dakar/news/kamaz-karginov-disqualified-spectator-incident/4322778/quote:A 60-year-old South African man, stood within a group of five outside one of the stage's designated spectator zones, was hit by Karginov's truck, which drove over his left leg with its left rear wheel. They moved Dakar to a completely different continent and still found a South African man. A very stupid one. quote:“The competitor was excluded from the rally by the jury of commissioners for not stopping to attend the injured spectator,” the statement also said.

(2) The crew can protest the disqualification, but only after the race is finished. What’s the point of the protest, then?
