Many years ago i was working as RE on a roadbuilding contract. An irish roadworker slipped cutting logs with a chainsaw ...........143 ...(i'll never forget the number as i had to write it in the accident book !) stitches in his legs later....... he came to work the next day (Unbelievable I know ) but if he didnt turn up he didnt get paid !

Few years back (before i tiled) was patrolling in northern ireland, spent most of the days walking though fields and climbing over barbed/electric fences. Barbed wire fences used to always catch and rip your combats, used to put your foot on top of them and spring yourself over, was a pain cause fences used to shake like crazy resulting in your leg shaking (disco leg). Anyway a lad who was patrolling with us was a short arse and used to climb up the fence turn around at the top and climb back down the other side. Once when turning the crotch of his pants got caught on a barb at the top of the fence. Trying to free it with one hand , clutching with the other and about 60lb on his back in weight resulted in him slipping off the fence. Barb went straight into his scrotum at the bottom and carried on to the top, split his sack right open. Blood everywhere we took his pants down to the sight of an open sack showing 2 fresh walnuts out of there bag. Was funny later though, still gets the **** took out of him now

nO MAJOR ACCIDENTS.

Dropped a box of tiles on my foot last year...........breaking 2 toes.........and f**k did it hurt.
Was on first name terms at the eye clinic due to chips..........close my eyes now

Picked up an electric planer when it was still going..........I know I know........I ask myself why on that one.......stopped me picking my nose for a while

But wot gets me is.........why do those silly little nicks from tile chips..........always bleed like you have lost a limb..........claret everywhere

 

[GazTech]

Ahhh..they are SEGS...use sponges not fingers!!!

 

[CLAYS TILES]

the worse pain i have found was clearing adhesive away from around tiles, it takes away the skin off tips of fingers, it feels like i have metal splinters in the ends of my finger tips pushing into my skin! i know i shouls use gloves or something !!!!
HAPPY DAYS!!!!:shades_smile:

Many moons ago far far away in another land, (ok enough dramatics),
I very stupidly asked a friend/workmate to hold a ladreo between his feet while I was at it with the angle grinder, he twisted while I was cutting, the grinder kicked out and took a nice 3" section from his shin. Nice.
I'll leave the epic about my fingers for another time, I'd like to keep a little dignity!:shades_smile:
