  • thats nasty

  • I never touched the table saw at school. I just didn't see any point in touching a tool that dangerous when there are a bunch of idiotic kids swarming around the shop. Fuck that dude.

  • 12 people dont have thumbs lol

  • Sucks that you had to hurt your thumb, but really cool to look at how it grows back. Looks almost normal. The human body is amazing!

  • Wow, at 0:48, I have to be honest. Your thumb totally looked like a penis. You should have pulled that prank where you stick your thumb through your fly and pretended it was a penis. You would freak so many people out! That's a million dollar prank right there.

  • ahhh my finger... wait let me get the camera!!

  • god DAMN!!!!!

    (that's gotta hurt)

  • OUCH

  • @brianwurst1234 hahahaha... sounds disgusting tho.

  • HAAAUGH

  • i'm not shocked i've done that to my middle finger it takes a while to heal.

  • damn it, i should not have watched this right now. i have wood shop starting tmro D:

  • geeze.. that's worse than the time i cut off a chunk of my thumb with a mandolin. never again will i use one..

  • its just like on ET, but about ten times worse

  • Thanks for posting this, one5one5one. Table saws are indeed to be treated with caution and respect.

    cheers from sunny Vienna, zilch

  • Life is what it is

  • omg did you lose that thumb???

  • Yum!

  • Cool...how did that...happen...=(

  • Is that the that a wound from the safe saw stop, or is that just from an ordinary table saw? Because you could have cut your a whole 1/2 of your thumb of your lucky

  • This guy is actually lucky. Usually it does a lot more damage and usually you lose the digit.

  • F WORD!!

  • yeah, it hurts

  • ironically replied to the safe saw thing.....

    might wanna invest in those

  • ummm, ouch?

  • I actually had a similar accident in metal shop where the metal cutter ripped my index finger open. Not cut. Ripped!

  • Ouch!

  • bet you that smelled raunchy while it was healin!

  • How's that thumbnail holding up? That's what I want to know.

  • mate! i bet it stung the next day!

    Not happened to me yet... feels like i'm sitting on a time bomb...

    a collegue chopped a 45 degree chunk off his ring finger the other day. that was nasty! we found it on the floor :S

  • That's a good way to put it. Time bomb. This will keep you from ever getting your finger cut like kid in your shop. ALWAYS respect the saw, and and pay attention. ALWAYS properly use a push stick.

    ALWAYS use eye protection. The people who don't, get hurt. The second you don't, is the second you get seriously hurt. I've used a table saw for 30 years. and not one injury. I respect the saw 100%

    What happened to that kid, can happen to anyone at anytime, on any saw, on any day. SAFETY !!!

  • o_O

  • im glad it healed nicely. i would have fainted if i saw my thumb like that! :)

  • Holy Jesus!!!!!!!!! ow

  • was your first reaction to get a camera.

  • The camera just happened to be there as I prepared to go and get stitches and I noticed that it wasn't bleeding badly and it didn't hurt

  • lol, im sorry man, that happened to me too! its the worst thing that could happen to anybody

  • Me too ;(

  • ok, it hurts, but it is not the worst thing that could happen to anyone

  • thumbs up^^

  • *pukes*

  • your lucky you still have your thumb

  • i got over 100kg over my midle toe and i nearly lost it it was hanging thare on a under 1mm THIS IS NOT A LIE!

  • It would have healed twice as fast if he had taken care of it. I thought he may loose his thumb from infection. before the end.

  • yea the saw must not have sensed your nail under the blade... amazing how well it healed though

  • omg...this was cool but i had to put my hand over my mouth like 3 times lmao

  • y do u keep zooming in!!??? aaaaaagggggghhhhhh

  • Wow that healed up pretty nicely. The human body is truly remarkable.

  • Yes, it is but the thing is, the thumb could of easily been infected within 2 seconds of the accident, which is why they should invend more safety stuff.i know the are but more.

  • reminds me of saw 5

  • Thats revolting, I hope it didnt get infected

  • nicer

  • gonna puke...

  • my testicles shiver and get goose bumps everytime i watch this!!

  • ya 2 thumbs so now 6 FINGERS!!!

  • the infection part looks messed up. i'm a junior in H.S. and i won't look at a table saw the same way again in my construction class

  • Just to recap folks-As bad as it looks, there was never an infection and my thumb healed remarkable fast. There was also very little pain-apparently because I severed a nerve.

  • best wishes from germany

    made the same thing last year.

    luckily without an infection.

  • Wow, I hope a hospital didn't do that to you..

  • INFECTION ANYONE!?

  • il take gangreen

  • omfg outch!

  • SHIT MAN OW!

  • ssssttttt ouch

  • Thumbs up!

  • Man, that's wild. Thanks for all the pictures, I'm glad to have seen the last ones especially ;)

  • Lucky bastard?

  • nothing a little bandages and sticthes can't do...

  • yea i saw on time warp to

  • you know i dont think its smart when you slice your thumb and film it instead of going to hospital......

  • eeek!!! O_o

  • OW DANG

  • triple antibiotic speeds up healing -getting cut sux

  • Oww... how did you do that... sawing away and then notice that the cut wood has fallen to the ground... what am I sawing then?!

  • DANG! OUCH! I'm really sorry about that. That had to hurt, alot.

    You should go to Saw Stop!! My dad works for them and their saw will cut you but only like a papercut. It stops when your skin touches it. AMAZING

  • oMg......

  • lol

    that's cool,a saw that will stop when your skin touches it....

  • i saw something similar on time warp and it is amazing

  • OUCH!!!!

  • Believe it or not, There was no major pain, or bleeding. At the moment I realized this, my camera was right in front of me. I have never been the type to panic under stress or pressure. Though I didn't panic, I did realize the sense of urgency. Probably 3 minutes elasped between the cut and the time I drove myself to the hospital. The only reason it took that long was I had to put away my saw and other tools before I left. The pictures took about half a minute. Believe it or not!

  • I believe it, when you are in major pain and it happened so quick, you or your finger won't feel anything until AFTER

  • @one5one5one I believe you. a similar thing happened to me ... and it is not cool ... please be careful with all cutting tools

    finger are priceless =(

  • Go saw your own thumb in half then, let's see a real one. Half arsed expert-on-everything, you.

  • damn that must be painful!!!

  • such a serene music to a horrible incident. lol. ouch, looks like it hurts like shit. i mean, i always break my bones, and nowadays when i break em, i dont feel anything, but that. just watching that gives me pain to me thumb ):

  • wow it healed pretty good

    when i got to the half of the video i thought your finger is rotin :S coz it looked like it

    it's amazing how wounds can heal

  • Were those people using that safe saw of the video you responded to?

    If so, it's still better than losing the entire thumb. :P

  • Don't Drink and Saw!

  • i dont understand how this happened if you dont mess around with the machine

  • yep. u needed that safety guard on that saw. glad u saved the digit. i do alot of renovations at my house and when i use my table saw, i give that sucker much respect. i never go near the teeth and have like a gazillion jigs to push that last piece thru. and if its small enough, i use a hand saw. coz im skeeered...lol

  • damn thats gross

  • OOO SHIT that must hurt... My dad droped his chainsaw on his leg cut him up bad but not that bad

  • LOVE THE MUSIC......LOL

  • I really feel sorry for you... I couldn't stand having my thumb even looking like that; it's beyond me how it would feel.

  • Sorry to see that happened to you, man.

  • really heart

  • COOL!!!!

  • -ouch-

  • *GASP* A bloody thumb? Im scarred for life!

  • yummm

  • that looked like it really hurt

  • WHOA!

  • omg in the end it looked good as new

  • But you can't say that didn't hurt! Glad you still have your thumb, hand even. ...

    J

  • wow im glad for u that u got to keep your thumb!

  • delicious

  • hey lets have a thumb war!!!!!!!! the same kinda happened to me

  • u should played icky thumb in the backround lol

  • that healed well...lucky

  • lol thats an intersting video

  • Thanks for the reply....but "ouch" you got me to view the video again. Glad it's working out though :) Nice clean heal up.

  • Damn....looks good from print side. Did your nail grow back fine? No thickness in nail?? I know what you are talking about with the hyper sensitivity!! Do you get feelings at other places besides were you touch? Had a few bad ones myself. Glad you got to keep it :)

  • My nail looks fine but it is thick, brittle, and difficult to clip. I think the nerves are still out of sync too because the hyper-sensitivity comes and goes. Now and then it feels like I have arthritis or something. I'm grateful that it wasn't worst and I always use a saw guard and push stick now.

  • hey, I'm glad nothing worse happened though, thats always good :D

  • Respect the table saw -- and all power tools for that matter -- and leave complicated home improvement jobs to the professionals.

  • looked a little infected for a bit

  • I was just about to i had worse but wauw..

  • Thank God you're alright. It healed wonderfully.

  • wow

  • great vid one5one5one,shows the natural progressive healing the body puts into place!coooool

  • Holy.....Ouch!

  • OOOOOO, I bet thats tender. Dunk it in salt thatll make it feel better

  • thats gota hurt

  • 0.14 looks like a red packman!! :)

  • i cut my finger with a table saw, this happend today 1/7/08 only that my cut is going sideways but it looks just like that, how long di it take you to recover 100% and what were you taking for pain?

  • I noticed right after my accident that I did not feel major pain. They gave me Tylenol/codeine but I never needed it. They did give me a shot before the doctor ripped out my shredded fingernail. Never felt a thing. The only pain I felt was when a nurse tried to force out a stitch before it was ready to come out. My thumb LOOKED healed in about 2 months, but I don't have the same dexterity or sensitivity. Good luck with your healing process, and always use the blade guard. Peace!

  • eww

  • ouch?

  • amazing how the human body repairs itself

  • the first pic explained why so no more omg

  • I don't even use table saws of any kind, but I think you've just convinced me to wear thumb guards everywhere I go!

  • even greater wisdom would be to build a guards thats not so inconvenient to attach and remove. the convenient ones come with the $1000+ saws but im just avg joe that opted for the $300 one. thanks for video now for a while ill be reminded to put the guard back in place.

  • nasty eww

  • now that looked uncomfortable, glad your through with healing

  • Nice final results :D

  • ouch,what did you do???

  • by the looks of it i might have been a table saw accident.

  • ouch!!!

  • JESUS,pleas help thes people heel

  • God bless you man!

  • i liked the final results, wisdom and grattitude

  • why the song?

  • The song is an interlude from an old Earth Wind and Fire Album. I have no idea why I chose it, and I wish I had put more thought into which song I used. Maybe because I never thought this video would have this much life. Almost 25,000 views and the videos for my artwork have barely reached 300.

    Thanks for your comments!

  • thats pro! your vid..not that you cut your finger in half

  • dude go to the hospital dont justand there and take pictures!!!!!
