    I'm missing most of my left hand. I'm just have (what on you would be) my middle finger, and my thumb. It looks like a claw - well, that's what most people say.

    It happened while I was installing neon underglow back in the 90's. I don't like to talk about it.

          Like I said, sorry that happened to you. I bet everyone was into neons back in the 90's anyway so no need to be ashamed. It's just like this whole hellaflush thing happening nowadays.

              I was getting a trans bolt off with a cheapass ratchet and it exploded and I punched the bottom of the car and jacked up my knuckles

                    Smashed my thumb with a 32 oz hammer trying to get the damn axle out of the hub last weekend. Shocked I didn't break it actually, just massively swollen with a quarter-sized blood blister. Got it out today though (torch, puller, hammer combo ;) ) and replaced that damn wheel bearing...
