the Depleted Uranium counterweights that had been liberated from the airframe during the crash.

That is just the most wonderful euphemism.

Supposed to be a rich guy who bought himself a helicopter, read the manual and thought he could just go for a spin.

I mean, technically he did just that :v:

Forgive the meme, but I'll be damned if this wouldn't be a good way to communicate occupational hazards with some people:

On the closed course that variable is a leaf.

In my case, a tiny little bit of wet gravel at the MSF course caused me to lay the bike down.

Found on the woodworking subreddit as the machine that ate 3 fingers in its lifetime, which seems far too low imo:

This is a table saw but flipped 90 degrees

I think it's technically a wood shaper, but instead of a spinning bit (already inherently dangerous) you have a horizontally mounted blade. It's been modified with outright malice.

But yeah, the greater point stands -- there just doesn't seem to be any way of using this thing safely. How do you feed anything in there without pinching the cutoff and having it shoot out in a random direction? How do you keep your hands away from the blade?

Apparently, this is in a shop in Palestine, which does explain both the use-whatever-you-have ethos and the cavalier approach to safety given the surroundings. But still... Eat one of my fingers, shame on you. Eat two of my fingers, shame on me.
