[the hated]

this series of pics show the damage produced by combining a Hilti gun ( cartidge powered nail gun which shoots nails into concrete ) and my mates hand/arm :-)

while trying to service the gun it went off - which under normal circumstances would have only resulted in a nail being shot out had it been loaded, but this went one better and shot the whole 5" x 1/2" piston out of the gun and into the palm of my mates hand then proceeded to travel up his arm


pic 1 is the hilti gun

rest of the pics are the xrays and surgery scars...

Amazingly just a few seconds before it was aiming towards his chest so it wouldhave been pretty much fatal. He also didn't realise that the whole bolt had gone in until the xray

he started of with just a hole in his hand and now after 8 hours of microsurgery to repair the nerves and arterys , plus a skin graft, the result is the last 3 pics

Let's hope for his sake that he's a lefty.

How did it manage to shoot the piston without being loaded?
