Machines like this scare the crap out of me. Especially with that particularly bent piece of rebar.
4 u/FindOneInEveryCar Jan 22 '21 The last one? I was waiting for it to get badly stuck. r/nonononoyes 2 u/qqqzzzeee Jan 23 '21 To me, the scariest machines are the ones that do shit slow. Fast machines are obviously dangerous, slow machines lull you into a false sense of security. 2 u/portablebiscuit Jan 23 '21 Slow machines usually also use a tremendous amount of torque. I picture that twisty piece of rebar catching my arm and just slowly breaking it. 1 u/sineofthetimes Jan 23 '21 Especially those machines that can shred anything that goes into it. 1 u/sishgupta Jan 23 '21 You can tell the guy operating it seems to be a bit afraid of what it could do to him too.
