    Does the dumbest way that I ALMOST hurt myself count?

    I was running an angle grinder with a wire brush cleaning off some rust from a truck part I was working on. I was working the brush into a tight spot with a few studs sticking out, the wire brush caught and sent the grinder back into my torso. Fortunately, the brush part got tangled up into my shirt so fast that it ripped out of my hand and I let go of the trigger. I ended up with what amounted to a slight rug burn from my shirt being sucked into the grinder so fast. I had to cut the shirt out of the damn thing.

    Thing of it was, I knew, just KNEW, that I was going into that spot at a bad angle, and I carried on anyways. I won't ignore that little voice ever again.
