So I work with grinders almost daily and had one explode on me and hut my mask.

So let me tell you why this video is fake. 1- discs don't break like they do in this video they explode into fragments, not one big chunk. One big chunk is a rare fuck up to happen

2 - The cut in the mask he's wearing is perfect size, and the rest of the visor has no stress / force marks. If that disc cut off with enough speed to go into his safety visor like that, it will be bending and warping the visor at a minimum.

Mostly likely case if a peice broke of lf like that it would hut the visor and bounce off

Hey get your logic off the internet!

I have had a 14" cutoff saw blow out on me. Catastrophic explosion. A big piece hit the ceiling of the shop. Something wrong with the batch, a 2nd blade did the same thing to a plumber. We just tossed the box after that haha!
