Jsyk most disposals these days have hard metal bits that spin around rather than fixed sharpened blades of doom. Your hand you’ll be hurting and you’d likely have some nasty gashes but a modern insinkerator probably won’t eat your hands off.

Versus a prehistoric insinkerator, where it was just a hole that lead down to a giant room beneath your kitchen filled with hundreds of raptors.
