Having accidentally put my fingers in one of the props of my son's drone recently, you have my sympathies.

I assumed the weight of the batteries, motors, model and the tail lipped over the box would keep the model in place. I was a bit wrong! The torque was incredible. the thumb wound was down to the bone, prop went straight through the nail bed. This all happened on a live stream, 40 people screaming in the chat "Its moving", "watch your fingers" Obviously wasn't watching the chat. I felt like a complete tit!

Yeah, I didn't do anything that bad, but let's just say I won't be doing it again.

I took the skin off two knuckles while tidying the garage the other week (my most middle-aged injury yet). There's that moment after where you look down, see thick dark blood, and go "Yeah, that might be a problem"
