Working construction for 20 odd years I have stepped on enough nails to frame a house.

The best nail incident I have seen is my poor Dad stepped on 2 side by side framing nails and they went all the way through his foot.

Best I heard was an old almost 400lb framer we had shot himself in the knee with a framing gun. His helpers found him cussing his ass off and trying to pull it out with pliers. It took 4 guys to carry him to a car so he could go to the hospital.

Lots of gore on construction sites, I could fill a book with stories I heard.

damn....
 
I know people have already posted, "So you got nailed at work today?", but I just wanted to make my contribution. :beer:

I left my wallet in another state so I had to drive there. When I got there, my gf left the keys in my car (nothing new, I give her the keys as I go out and open the door because my hands and pockets are full). Because of that, security came to try and help and used a wedge and some thick wire to press the unlock of my car. The wedge damaged the door (where the B-Pillar is) and perhaps down to where it can rust. Now I'll have to have it detailed or something sometime.

it'll buff right out

I was so busy and had so much work to do that I shrugged it off...was expecting a pool of blood but only have a a little red dot. odds are it probably didn;t go in an inch since the hole in my jeans was pretty small and the nail was nailnormous....it will hurt a lot...


<--recently got a tetnus shot and eats 'Nature's best" granola bars so he thinks he'll be fine


hurt like hell for the split second it was in there and the other split second when I realizd that it was in there and the OTHER split second in which I forced the piece of wood (w/ the nail) out
so how does your coworker accidently nail you?! it's not an accident when you are caught with KY.

That's what everyone said then, and what everyone says now when crap like that happens:|

"oh that's nothing ,I knew this guy that cut his ____ off with a recip. saw or jammed a nail in his eye and can still see"


They never let you sulk in your INCREDIBLE (at least for us) PAIN
