Miller Posted April 6, 2010 Report Share Posted April 6, 2010 Was pulling the flywheel bolts off of another engine today. I mean these bolts are in here. So I've got a 30 inch pipe on a large socket when the wrench link gives up. My force and 180 pounds of body weight straight to the lower eye socket and nose. I've taken hits and fight and never been so knocked silly. Laid on the ground and kinda shook while my face dripped blood. "Woah man are you okay?" ***No answer "Oh shit" LoL - Push, never pull.

Farkas Posted April 6, 2010 Report Share Posted April 6, 2010 I have a permanent scar on my forehead when I was trying to pick up a 4AGE head out of my trunk when the wind caught the trunk lid and bashed my face down into the spark plug tube.

Avenger1647545502 Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 With where that hit you're lucky you didn't fuck up your eye or socket! Breaking the orbital bone would be HIDEOUSLY painful. Nothing can be done about it, and every time you blink or move your eye it HURTS, the muscles all anchor on that bone... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avenger1647545502 Posted April 8, 2010 Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 Hmm, hadn't thought about it in a while, but there is a somewhat common superstition that a tool unused for a year will seek to harm the person using it. Another superstition is that metal, being non-organic, "thirsts" for blood so that it can live. This one I almost believe, I can't count the number of times I've been cut or poked working on a motor...but I've never been injured TWICE in a day by the same car. Then again, I learned German, Italian, and Japanese cuss words, since it makes sense that a car won't understand you unless you cuss it in its native language.....
