[QUOTE="Vraille Darkfang, post: 3277801, member: 16989"] Found at a few more details (yes, it gets worse). The company my wife works for does a lot of Pre-Fab work in the warehouse. He was building a unit to ship on-site, Reinforcing the Studs to the Roof Beams. Seems he has a bad back & gets tired leaning over to drive the nails into the wood, so he just straddles the beam & scooches himself along firing the Nail Gun as he goes. The is an older-compressed air gun, runs off a house in the warehouse & Fires 6" Long Nails with a wide head & burrs to stick in the wood. It has a Safety Trigger & Fires by Pushing the Base against the wood (That fires the Mechanism). In order to work faster, he'd put Electrical Tape around the Safety. So, here is the breakdown of how it is supposed to go. 1. Smack Gun into Wood 3 times in a line, driving 3 Nails through Roof Frame into a Single Stud. 2. Move Gun 14 Inches to Next Stud, Repeat. 3. When you get to the Stud Close to you, Scoot back so you can Nail the Studs your Butt was previously Covering. Here is what happened: 1. Smack Gun into Stud 3 times repeat. Due to Window Placement next Stud is nearer than normal. But, that's OK. He's still got room to Fire that Gun. 2. First Shot Goes Fine. Second Shot Slips & Fires a Nail through his Pants into the wood. 3. He's Startled, but still into his hammer-slinging routine. So, the Gun slings down, firing a Nail COMPLETLY THROUGH his Thigh & Into the wood. He is now upset & Drops the gun. 4. Gun Land in Crotch with enough Force to trigger the Firing Mechanism. BAM! Gun Fires Nail Through Jeans & Right Teticle & Into the Wood. However, unlike with his thigh, the Head of the Nail does not penetrate the Jeans. Thus, he is now Nailed to the Wooden Beam Via his Testicle. 5. Gun Kicks back with enough force to bounce OVER HIS HEAD! The Kick-Back of this weapon packs the same punsh as a Donkey Kick (or so says a works how has been kicked in the gut by a Donkey & 1 of these guns). 6. The falling gun attracts attention. As does the high-pitched scream. 7. This is when the EMT shows up (Who has a frightening number of anecdotes about trama to the groin; the one about flammable oil-based lubricants, smoking, & umm.... watching [I]videos [/I] alone should be reason enough NEVER to SMOKE!!!!!). 8. Here was his diagonosis: A. Minor Blunt Trauma for the Gun Falling on his Crotch. B. Severe, non-permanent damage from SPIKE OF STEEL through Testicle. C. Moderate Compression from Nail squeezeing Testicle to Wood. D. Moderate Trauma from Kick-Back of Gun. And, after what-ever the EMT's gave him, he didn't feel a thing. And, he hasn't been back to work yet. He's on 'Medical Leave' Gossip is the Doctor's note mentioned "Severe Swelling" So kids. DON'T INTERFERE WITH THE SAFETY TRIGGER!!!!!!!!!!! [/QUOTE]
