Many years ago I bought a house near Atlanta, GA. It had a large lot but the previous owners had let most of it get overgrown with small saplings, etc. I was clearing the lot by hand using an axe and a shovel. I was wearing tennis shoes. I bent a sapling over and held it down with my foot. I struck the "trunk" of the sapling with the axe. The axe slid down the trunk and hit my foot. The axe went through my tennis shoe and cut into my foot parallel to the big toe. My foot/shoe immediately turned red. I went into the house, sat on the side of the bathtub and took the shoe off expecting to have a loose toe in my sock. Fortunately, the toe was still attached to my foot. The axe head had just split the toe longitudinally, right beside the bone. A bunch of stiches and pain pills later, I finally healed up.
Don't ever:
1. wear tennis shoes to clear ground 2. bend saplings over to cut them with an axe 3. hold the saplings down with you foot
