    o_O:eek:o_O That ain't too awful far from here......

    Luckily the Big Man was watching over him.....and without a doubt his co-workers did the correct thing by leaving the bar/chain in the wound. That probably helped save his life.

    One lucky dude there. ......

    How's that, you like? (Check the beginning of this thread). Also it should show up in both forums that it was originally posted in for 14 days and then it will just be in the power equipment section.

    I know one thing: me & blood don't get along. I'd have been passed out. But on our news segment. The nurse said his blade was 1cm from I believe a major artory. His angels were looking out for him.

    So help me understand... This guy is 21 years old and has 6 years of experience? He was in a saddle in a tree and the saw kicked back and hit him in the neck. He had no reflex action, the saw somehow imbedded itself in his neck and he managed to shut it off where it remained, impervious to the laws of gravity. He descended from the tree with the saw still in his neck where the powerhead was removed and he was treated and then sent to the hospital.

    Seems highly improbable to me...
