The worst sheet metal cut ive had come from 18 GA duck hanger strap putting hanging clips on them.The type you beat onto a perling or beam.Well anyhow its never a good idea to hold piece of strap in your hand while running a self drilling 5/16 tech bit ,what happens is when it bottoms out the strap will spin in your hand.I had a strap spin and cut the center of the palm of my hand wide open.Blood all over the place.I think i fixed it with a paper towel and some electric tape wrapped around it.
I hit myself with the tip of a brazing torch on feb 14th..that hurt like a bitch and burned a section of the back of my hand into the shape of a heart.
The worst injury's and fatality's ive seen come from falls though.
We were putting in systems for this company i worked for..it was a large industrial type building with chillers ..the duct was all over the place and equipment controls all over the place..fire dampers all over the place.
One of the spots we had to run our duct through the concrete floor at had a piece of plywood marked in bright orange paint..HOLE.
The guy who was measuring for the duct earlier unscrewed the plywood and just laid it back down on the hole.Didnt screw it back down like he should have.
A laborer on the job doing clean up walked up to the plywood..picked it up to throw it away like it was garbage and walked straight into the hole.
If it had not been for the other piece of plywood about 14 ft below him breaking his fall he would have been dead.
It fucked him up for the rest of his life though.He will never work again.Broke his back and shattered his arm.
One job i worked on two roofers died on the same job ..same roof different times.OSHA had a field day with fines.
