If the other 2 times it has been posted didn't I'm sure a third time will help.

I'm assuming the guy got his hand stuck between the chain and sprockets or similar? With the link missing, it would help to know what I need to be careful to avoid, especially since I normally clean the chain using my todger.

The link was to another site, showing graphic images ie missing fingers, the post was about what can go wrong if you make a silly mistake, but as this site is a “u” cert we all can think about what it was like.
I did put this post up for any one new to biking, to be extra careful when cleaning their chain or this could happen………
