Come up with a scenario were a shaving accident results in:

Alright, come up with a scenario in which you are shaving and somehow you slice 4 tendons and an artery (as the title says) on your arm. It can be as ridiculous as you like since I can't really come up with an accident that would result in those injuries. Brownie points if someone can come up with a plausible scenaro.

Someone is claiming shaving accident for these injuries: Proof (2nd to last paragraph)

If it's a repost, sorry I did search before posting.

 
You're shaving with a razor blade (just a blade, no handle) and all of a sudden, a rhino headbutts you in the chest, causing your arm to flail and slice yourself in the wrist, where you bleed to death while spectators crowd around, pointing and murmuring.
 
Favorite scenario:

haha, I was trying to get a small MSP430 based board to send stuff to a computer using RS232 for a class last semester. Nothing ever got through, no idea what was wrong, until it eventually came out that they had recently made some change in hardware that resulted in the voltage off the MSP430 board not being high enough to register with the computer, we we plugged it in and put an oscilloscope on the solder beads, got a good scope picture of the transmission and verified that it was correct. God, I hate working with finicky hardware. MechE FTW!

WTH?

On topic: Shaving the armpits with a strait razor (not a safety razor) and slipping...or something like that.

I think you mean Zidane, not a rhino.
 
so you wake up in the morning, take your nice hot steaming shower (because shaving is MUCH easier after that type of shower), lather up your face, and pull out the trusty straight edge razor (because, as befitting your style, you like to do it old school).

You bring the razor up to your neck for a stroke, an earthquake hits, a big one...think Northridge, but with you right near or around the epicenter. Now you go into a panic attack, which you didn't know you actually suffered from until now because you've never been in this situation, large quake and a razor to your neck with pieces of your bathroom falling on you. The panic attack makes you lose control, you start breathing heavy, your muscles tense up causing you to squeeze the razor a bit tighter. You try to let go of the sharpened steel but your body won't allow it. You panic more. You begin to seize. Grand mal seizures hit. You cry out but no one hears you as they are scattering from the earthquake. You hit the ground, razor in hand, convulsing violently, slicing every which way. Neck, torso, arms, legs, nothing is safe. Your cuts are deep, down to the tendons, muscles, arteries. You begin to pass out from the loss of blood and muscle exhaustion. The quake has passed. Your bathroom is coated with you.

Good morning.
