Default The insides of your fingers

Had a slight meat knife incident last night and opened my left hand up... How cool are the insides of your fingers? One of them didn't bleed, and when I flexed it to make sure it wasn't actually damaged I could see all the stuff moving, it was like Terminator Unfortunately when I pointed this excellent new feature out to the man at the hospital he agreed that it was cool, but then he stitched the viewing window back up and now it's all gone No sense of adventure, these NHS types. Wish I'd taken a video.

Apparently I just nicked the muscles in one finger, and just missed them in another, no major damage done, and all that one handed typing practice is coming in very handy

Sounds like you had some really good painkillers there Northy!

I had a lad go over a fence once, he de-gloved (took all the skin off, like taking a glove off) his middle finger on the spikes at the top. He wasn't as peased about it as you, but it was cool, seeing the bits working!

You can type better than me with two hands haha

I always remember catching my finger between some racking and a pallet truck at Toy R Us, It didnt bleed straight but when I bent my finger all hell broke loose and I was spurting blood every where, you could squeeze my finger like an uder and it would shoot out, brilliant fun...........until you faint lol

I had a similar thing in Germany a few years back. I fell over whilst ice skating and slid into somebodys blade. The blade went straight between 3 and 4 finger. I could pull them quite widely apart and it looked brill. Like you though, they stitched the cut up, nine stitches I had.

I thought that was just an old scare story to make you wear gloves! Didn't know it had actually happened to anyone!
