Fabergé Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 Got to be a nomination for this years' Darwin Awards. Apologies to our American cousins, but so many of these kinds of stories seem to originate 'over the pond' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popcorn Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 You can't imagine how it can be 'second nature' to use a gun if all else fails can you? Think I'll stick to my hammer method Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 Sounds a bit like the chap who used a power sander to remove the callouses off the soles of his feet. Had to have skin grafting. Some folk just don' think things through do they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoid Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 (edited) :lol: Sounds a bit like the chap who used a power sander to remove the callouses off the soles of his feet. I used a sander to get superglue off my fingers (it DID NOT work, but dont try it! I wouldn't try it again. I used a blunt object to pry the glue off instead. No one was injured) Edited November 13, 2007 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted November 13, 2007 Author Share Posted November 13, 2007 Reminds me of a conversation last night - an engineer friend said that he is going for an interview at the nuclear recycling plant in Didcot next week - Phil asked it he gets gloves to wear....!
