Input: Text: before today i considered myself to use the best practices when utilizing power tools. i used to be a diesel technician and have done a decent amount of metal fabrication. i had a change of careers 5 years ago and became a paramedic. i have seen a couple gnarly accidents when people aren't safe. one would think i would be the last guy to have an accident.

today my neighbor asked for me to cut a 3/4 inch steel bar for a tractor of his. i agreed and took the bar back to my shop where my angle grinder is. i locked it in the vise with confidence and slapped on newer cut off disc. as i cut downwards into the bar i realized that metal dust was fragmenting into my tool box. i decided to cut upwards into the bar to prevent this. 

if you're not familiar with using an angle grinder you wouldn't know that you never want to cut upwards into something like this. i did. i was being an idiot.

i was 90% into my upwards cut of the steel rod when suddenly the weight of the bar caused it to pinch the cut off disc. this instantaneously launched the angle grinder back at me.  without a second to realize it was happening the grinder chassis grabbed my shirt and swung with the force of an nfl kicker into my family jewels. 

this forced me to let go of the grinder and keel forward in pain. letting go of the grinder allowed it grab my t-shirt with the disc and pulled towards my groin. i grabbed grinder chassis but at this point it was pulling my shirt into it harder than i could fight. i felt humming through my arms as the motor on the grinder locked up. 

afraid to let go of the grinder i pulled it away from my abdomen stretching my shirt beyond limit. it felt like i was holding a pit bull by its jaws as it tried to maul me. i managed to quickly back up pulling the power cord out of the wall socket. the garage went silent. i had a vietnam style flash back to every final destination scene i have watched.

i will never ever make an upwards cut into an unsupported anything ever again.

i attached photos of my shirt and just how close i came to amputating my own dick. i was horrified and considering i use the angle grinder every single day i am now terrified with the fact i did something so stupid. for the record i wore my safety glasses. 😂
