I would think with the loss of blood flow the chunks of tissue would be dying and there's no way to get that all meshed back together, let alone thinking about how to reattach nerves, arteries, tendons, and so forth.

I'm not a physician but having worked in prosthetics design, that looks like the kind of thing that would probably be stitched poorly back together, then have the patient undergo three or four more surgeries before finally cutting it off, at which point quality of life finally begins improving.

Really? You'd rather fall on an exposed bar than one of those caps? I'm no expert but it looks to me like if someone trips and lands squarely on a cap, it'd save them from impalement.

I always thought of them more as a don't-poke-your-eye-out prevention measure

If there's one thing I've learned from this thread, it's that masonry walls are ready to fall at any moment.

If there's one thing I've learned from this thread, it's make sure you set the parking break on your truck before you turn it right side up again.

I'm guessing he was trying to get the pallet mover (left by whoever loaded the truck from a dock) out from under it in order to use the forklift.
