Could’ve lost a finger
Continuing on with power tools, one of the most dangerous ones you can wield in your hands is a chainsaw. While helpful for keeping bushes and trees in order, their high-speed chains and long bars are a recipe for disaster, even in the hands of the most seasoned landscaper.
Even though safety gloves do reduce feeling in your hands, they can do the trick to keep all your digits intact. That’s what happened when this guy’s chainsaw kicked-back into the direction of his hand. It tore through his skin but not deep enough to cause bleeding. He should be thankful to return home with as many fingers as he left with that morning.
