During my first week of mechanic's trade school, they told us not to gently caress about with compressed air, not to gently caress about with bearings and definitely not to gently caress about with compressed air and bearings. A dude in second year clearly missed that class and as another student was walking over to tell him why it was a bad idea to spin up a bearing on his little finger with compressed air regardless of the cool noise it made, it seized and twisted his fingat straight off. I didn't see the end result but the high pitched whizzing whine of the bearing was replaced by a high pitched wheezing scream from the student. Didn't see him again after that.

Well, now he'll never be Dr. Evil for halloween.

I wonder if it's possible to adapt this to a stuck fastener.

I think my first introduction to what "degloving" meant was a description of some kind of accident, and I can't remember if it was factory-related or what, that involved a woman's hair getting caught in some kind of machinery and her being scalped, like forehead to nape of the neck. After that every other example of it that I have heard has only served to drive home the point it is one of the more horrifying words there is.

I am an awkward fellow
after all
The first time I ever heard he term was someone that had gotten a metallic wedding ring between 2 high voltage terminals in an aircraft wiring harness and cooked their finger like one of those 1950's hotdog cookers and basically all the flesh came off when they finally got it out.

The pictures will probably stay with me until they day I die.

I heard the term devolving in reference to someone dunking a basketball and getting a ring stuck on a net hook or something. Not sure if that was actually possible though

I dunno, you put a lot of weight on a small portion of the body and a metal thing with potentially sharp edges and I'm pretty sure it'll remove itself from the body fairly quickly. Hell, there used to be problems with the hangman noose being too tall or long and popping the heads off the people getting hung. I can easily imagine a ring doing some damage during the drop from the net to the ground.

Completely plausible. My brother almost had it happen to him when jumping down from a warehouse shelf and his wedding ring got caught on a hook of some sort. Thankfully it was a cheap ring that deformed and he got away with a broken knuckle instead of losing a fingat.

Would be OSHA to hang someone heavier than that. Guidelines say to use the guillotine.

In one of Randall Munroe's "What Ifs?" someone asked him what would happen if you focused all of the sun's energy at a single point, and how you would die if you were standing there. His response has always stuck with me: "You don't die of anything in the traditional sense. You just stop being biology and start being physics."
