A friend of mine lost both arms and half his face in a corn picker.
I'm sure he wouldn't mind me speaking for him here and saying "Turn the )#($* thing off before going anywhere NEAR it". Not sometimes - but EVERY time.
I know it's often easier to pull a jam while it's spinning - but remember what should be obvious: nobody PLANS an accident.
It's not always "stupidity" that causes something to go wrong, it happens to smart careful people too - all you need is a little bad luck.
It's easy to visualize accidents in slow motion, and think you can plan out your escape routes and such - but in reality most accidents happen so fast and are so unexpected that you don't even have time to see it coming, let alone react to it.
My friend's spent a life time wishing he could undo that one little split second in time.
Any time I've got a jam or something like that - I play a little mental game and pretend I'm in his shoes, and that I just got my wish granted to handle it differently.
That helps resist the urge to do things the quick way.
