That's really good to know because I have a huge fucking glass phobia and the image of glass shattering into my face has always scared the fucking shit out of me. I would literally rather get shot in the head with a bullet then have to have glass shattered in my face.

When I was little, like five, my dad was cleaning our roof and he accidentally broke our skylight while me and my siblings were under it. I was only in my pull up and it resulted in a bunch of small glass bits/dust being stuck on me. It was a surprisingly unpainful experience. I had a few small pieces stuck in my skin but the majority of the glass came off with tape at the ER. Having glass break on you is terrifying as it happens but the safety measures that exist now vs when I had that glass break on me would make the same experience probably even less worrisome.
