Stopping A Miter Saw Blade With Finger Trick!

[dewaltcarp]

I tried it an I cut my fucking finger off! My lawyer wants to know how he can contact you asp!

[SlowrThanThe2ndComin]

Very "special effects"

[Skidmarksownu1]

so your a professional at stopping a blade with your finger....

[rookiemcm77]

Stupid question... you not know that you can Actually stop the blade without editting by just flipping the power switch?

[MartyB086]

this guy looks like Al Borland from home improvement!

[pomeroy600287]

I can do that trick, although a little differently. What I do is I press my finger on the button that says 'off' and somehow that stops it spinning.

[hitachi088]

@pomeroy600287 yeah but electrical break worn your motor very fast.

[Idiotsmakemesad]

Gee youtube is full of some serious drama queens. Even if it wasn't special effects (which it was) touching the side of a circular saw blade isn't particularly dangerous.

[bigtruckshuntinbucks]

The saw blade is given an electronic signal that sensors monitor constantly. If the signal on the blade drops below a certain range, a spring-loaded aluminum block is released into the blade which stops the blade in approximately 1/200th of a second. This probably has a different kind of breaking system but, none the less, no theatricals involved.

I should probably mention at this point that this is actually a trick done with special effects. Maybe I'll put together a video that shows how it was done. Don't worry, my finger was never in any danger. 8)

[stevo1769]

you know, cool or not, that probably wasnt' a smart thing to do.

Would you have still posted the video atleast if you cut your finger off??

[metalcharger17]

thumbs up if you wanted him to lose his finger :(

[laurn9]

[0kaworu]

i give this a 85.9% chance of this being real watch the strap swinging in the top left. pulse theirs saws like that at my school

[K1RKYD]

Oh my god!!! Camera trick! He stops the camera puts his hands on the blade then takes them off and plays the camera again and turns the saw back on!

[phithekillhill]

[Tsukiyomaru0]

This is not impossible. With the right momentum and pressure, you can stop the blades. Did this once with a ceiling fan.

[RickM1953]

Right... Don't touch the paint it's wet...
