Mashed a thumb years ago (and I mean MASHED) with a two pound ball peen. I threw the thing and my wife says it cleared the barn roof by two feet! One of the kids found it a few years later a substantial distance from the barn. Couldn't throw it 1/4 that far under normal circumstances. Lol!
 
My cousin rented a basement apartment from a couple that owned a tool rental business in the city. The most frequently rented tool was: A HAMMER!
 
The one in the middle got more than just a thumb. My two older brothers were riding with Dad to get a corn picker one time. The younger of the two was playing with a pair or pliers,grabbing the front of his pants around his zipper and pulling on them. He reached back a little too far and the older one grabbed them and squeezed hard. He got more than denim.
 

in the 70s while serving,, working on an aircraft radar, on the calibration bench. got little finger into the the 15000 volts while setting the magnetron. Muscles contracted and threw a screwdriver through the sheetrock wall. Luckly no one was walking by at the time. The CMSGT was NOT happy about a hole in HIS wall.
 
What is it about throwing a miscreant tool that is SO satisfying?

As I've grown older (notice I didn't say "up") I've tried on occasion to be an adult and refrain from throwing a tool that bit me. Gives me indigestion and I KNOW it isn't good for my blood pressure so I usually give in and do my best to launch the offending device into Low Earth Orbit.

It's come back to bite me on the derriere more than once. Either lost an expensive tool or broken a window or dinged something up when I didn't look before launching.

OTOH, I still giggle every time I remember doing the Olympic Hammer Throw with that )A$(*%&^ Poulan chainsaw. Got REAL good distance out into the beaver swamp. AFAIK, it's still there...
 
Used to work with a fella that when he got mad he would throw a screw driver. Fist time I didnt think anything of it ,but the second time I was out of there,I quit.
 
Back in my young days i got mad and threw a long screwdriver at a feeder pig that had crawled under a fence and made its way to the shop. The screwdriver went clean through the pig and it ran away with the handle sticking out of one side and the blade out the other. After I chased it down and pulled out the screwdriver it ran in with the rest of the pigs and disappeared into the crowd. No pigs died in that group so it must have lived. Dad would not have been happy if he found out what I did.
 
That's why we Marines in Avionics were not required to wear our dog tags while doing bench work. Or at least stick them down inside our skivvy shirt.
 
Not quite the same, but, my younger brother had his hair fairly long, and got his curls caught in a drill press! He instantly had a bald spot the size of a tangerine! I think he would like that hair back now! LOL!

When I was in the Chair Force, I worked on microwave equipment an we were REQUIRED to wear our dog tags in our pockets and forbidden to wear a watch or ring while on duty.
