Holy shit it bit him!
You could turn into Dizzum-man. Watch out. One of your feet is gonna start having pump up, and then your thrust bearing in your hips is going to fail causing you to have crank walk.
How are you going to explain to your woman that you can't thrust anymore?
FFFFFFUuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
 
Lmao it's all good. Thank god i won't need stitching. I was bleeding mad crazy, had blood all over my face and hands. That pic was taken after i cleaned it up real good. My shirt is full of blood and small blood splatters on my shorts.

Meh whatever at least it bled, if not it would have been worse for internal bleeding.

Edit : Lmao @ lofty. I still have enough thrust for her ;)
 
Before you go to the junkyard, i highly recommend wearing either like you said a hard helmet hat, or better yet, take the hood off first !
 
Haha but seriously speaking at least a hat would have helped me.
I did rub it down with alcohol asap when i went inside the lobby.

OK, I did wear a had, but I didn't need it. It was the rear of the car that tried to eat me! When a car at the yard has been stripped-down to the point where it is just wasting space, they throw the remaining parts into the interior of the car next to it. Then the throw the hood onto the roof, and the bumper onto the rear hatch. So, any one of these cars might have 3 cars worth of random junk-in-it's-trunk. And of course, the hatch struts aren't any good. So I got smart; I brought my official cut-to-length DSM hatch-prop 1x2. I lifted up that hatch, jammed my 1x2 in there and started rummaging around. I was about half-way in there, just about had my feet off the ground, and my elbow hit the 1x2. AARRGGHHH... It's trying to eat me! But it had no teeth. I'm sure we've all had to fight-off a hungry DSM trunk. I know there's nothing new about it for me.
 
Now just think if you had a full head of hair it might not have been so bad ;)

LoL +1. I agree on that. Too bad i am starting to suffer the hereditary family trait of hair thinning so i cut my hair every week so it can look normal and fresh. And i had just cut my hair the day before to make things worse.

When I was 16, I had a CRX and I had the trunk/hatch propped up with a 1x2, putting in some subwoofers. I stuck my head in the trunk to look for something and pop, shoulder hit the 1x2 tried to pull my head out. Well, my head didn't quite make it and I had to get 8 stiches in my upper lip right under my nose. Good thing the doc did a near perfect job, you have to look real close to see the scar.

I'm too old. Been doing the same car so long, I just let it fall. I'd rather catch it on the ass or shoulders. I'm glad your face is OK. I'm putting hatch struts in the murder-wagon today, and de-murdering it.:thumb:
 
I nearly lost my middle finger while rebuilding the engine in my buddy's 1G last fall. The damn bench grinder sucked in an exhaust valve I was cleaning and brought my finger along with it.

I figured a visit to the ER would be a waste of time as they wouldn't ba able to stitch skin that wasn't there, so I wrapped the finger with a paper towel held in place by electrical tape (3M; only the best) and kept on working....but not before I snapped a pic or two:

My thoughts exactly. I've only needed staples in my head once. I know I've taken blows that would have left people bloody, but my hair seems to dampen the blow.

I grew it out when I started playing hockey in 8th grade and haven't cut it short again yet. I definitely have that hockey hair.

Ive had the same wound on my thumb. After 8 years it still aches every time you put lots of pressure on it or get it really cold.
 
i love pursuing my dream of being a mechanic haha
since I started school I manage to smash every knuckle TWICE!!
Over the summer I was wrenching on my car without a shirt on (dumb mistake but it was super hot out side) and leaned up against a sharp spot and it sliced my back open haha it was actually pretty cool i could make that shit talk haha

lofty, you are an idiot!!!! LOL LOL. and i mean that in a GOOD WAY. YOU ARE TOO FUNNY:hellyeah:
 
Ouch justin that looks painful :S.
Well i'll just have to be more careful next time.
 
First time I tried to unbolt the oil plug from the tranny to change oil (I was a noob and I though it would cure the bad synchros:ohdamn:) the wrench slipped and I hit my fingers angainst the exhaust flex section, which was pretty damaged, hard enough to take the nail out. Well I get in and clean it up. Now back to that plug I finally get it out but when it started to turn I hit the same finger at the same place. Ouch. I really hated my DSM at that time ..... for a few hours.

Ouch Justin's one looks painful.
