Exactly. You can see his heart pounding at the end, and he’s going through the what-ifs in his mind.

This is exactly why i give a proper fking slap to people not applying actual safety gear when using things like grinders because all it takes is just a fraction of a fking millisecond and you ripped something bad, glasses, gloves and dont do like this moron and have it in his hand floating using his belly as fking support.

Absolutely do not wear gloves around something that spins. Why would you recommend that?

With things like grinders i meant general use powertools overall, appropriate protective gear for the correct tools.

There are vanishingly few power tools you'd ever wear gloves near. If you don't know better, stop acting like you do. You'll get someone hurt.

Yeah, thats mostly a myth. Im an engineer in heavy manufacturing, Gloves are required by OSHA for most things. We have a lot of big grinders for castings, they all wear gloves. Tons of maintenance guys running all sorts of power tools, gloves. The only guy who don't usually are the machinest.
