Ouch!A friend was once given a biopsy by a sleep-deprived junior doctor.
They needed a sample of his colon, so inserted the long bendy jaws-on-the-end thingy, located the suspect area and... he shot through the ceiling. Doctor had forgotten to administer any anaesthetic.
What was your ouchiest moment?

Same here...Used to work in various finishing departments too.
The older guillotines (many years back) used to cut straight down (opposed to ones now that cut in diagonal fashion).
Other than giving a cleaner cut, safety improved too! The straight down action put so much force on the blade (look at the flywheel to see why.) that if anything enough to stop its full decent (knocking block), the blade would shatter!
