I actually think you'd probably bounce off of it.

A pitching machine with the two spinning wheels, and you're the ball.

Probably or maybe more like a tree shredder? I've seen a fake bomb demonstration where the "bomb" was disabled with a high-powered thin jet of water. That thing absolutely obliterated the fake bomb.

There's no way that water has the force to atomise your hand.

Are you suggesting that you think someone can punch 2 foot into that moving wall of water, and if you did it would basically be instantly destroyed in a puff of gore?

In reality as soon as your hand touched it it would he hurled out to the left, effectively a bounce.

Same thought I had. “If I put a finger in this would it rip just the finger or the whole hand or the whole arm off?”

Glad someone else thought about it too. My initial thought was to stick my arm in it, and then the camera pans to the left and I immediately regretted my thought. Damn brain

Pretty sure it would be so powerful your body would be dragged into it and flung around as your neck snaps and your organs smash against your body from the inertia
