was he a tweaker
that didn't happen from the nail bouncing off any thing

We were building some Hotels down in Carlsbad and the framer shot his brother with a 16p nail through his knee as he was seated. He could not stand up with the nail pinning his kneecap. Had to pound it out from the back as the head had gone too far into the front..... looked pretty cool to me.....

Nope, he was a raiders fan(now what I mean, grey shorts and white socks)
from the angle it looks like he had a jam and looked down the barrel to see where it was...

I was at Loma Linda interning when a guy came in with a nail in his head. He was on the first floor of a new home not wearing a hardhat and the guy using the nail gun on the second floor missed the stud. The nail was smack dab in the middle of his head. The dude was fine, no short or long term effect at all.
Crazy luck that dude had not to be a veg.

Shoulda told him he will never ejaculate again. Send him into the bathroom for a sample. He would have felt much better.

A finish carpenter friend shot a brad through his cock and ball last month, drove himself to the ER cause he didn't want anyone to know. Been telling him for years not to hold the gun between his legs with no safety.
I saw a co-worker fall off a ladder about 10 years ago and bury a 18" auger bit in his chest. That was scary. He lived and no longer drinks on the job. :coffeycup

So, am I a racist for having that picture in my head before you told us?

That would explain why the nail is bent.................... Oh wait, it's straight as well, something that's like really straight.
