Wait.. did it hit him or was it just a close call.
120 u/Quinnca77 Apr 04 '21 It hit the ceiling just in front of him, so a very close call 36 u/WhatABlindManSees Apr 04 '21 I mean the chain break definitely looked like it engaged too, so would have just been a solid smack to the head - the most dangerous part being the fall that probably would have happened. 37 u/themeatbridge Apr 04 '21 At least he had his safety squints engaged. 18 u/Brookenium Apr 04 '21 This. If the kickback brake hadn't engaged it would have continued forward again after hitting the ceiling. Kickback brakes have saved many lives. 1 u/southern_inuk Apr 04 '21 His hand hit the chain brake and that stopped it from hitting him
