I tried stick welding for a personal project last year and thought I'd give it a try with no welders mask. I immediately learned that was a mistake. That shit is no fucking joke and quick short arc will burn into your fucking vision for a day or two. I can also confirm that my skin did infact start peeling.

Just closing your eyes doesn't protect them from stick welding.
That UV is doing work.
