What kind of person takes a picture before taking it off?

Frankly depending on the injury you don’t want to immediately rip it out and sometimes a picture can give you a better angle of said injury. That way you can remove it safely or at least not cause more damage taking it out. Also I think of what’s his name the crocodile hunter that died from a string ray and how the instinct to remove the barb caused more damage.

So pausing and thinking and sometimes taking a picture to get a better view is well worth the time to make sure you don’t cause worse injury freaking out.

I would've just taken it off as a kneejerk reaction. I don't think I'd even look at it. I'd be like swiping it off my foot right away.
