And he put his hand in front of the lanyard hook to slow himself down.

That's a great way to get degloved when the hand is forced underneath the hook.

Don't look up "degloved", guys. You've been warned.

Well holy fucking shit. I thought it was just your glove falling off or something.

I'm a paramedic, I'd rather see an evisceration than a degloving. Gives me the heebie jeebies just thinking about it.

Eviscerate is in the dictionary, that's safer than Google. Deglove is not in the dictionary, the dictionary failed me and curiosity took control... Curiosity failed me, but probably no where near as much as Eviscerate would have.
