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....
