It's truly traumatizing for a family-friendly movie

Why didn't you guys just remove the nail instead of cutting his hand off?

Wired's YouTube channel has a fun video with a trauma surgeon discussing all of the injuries from the first 2 home alones.

I can still feel the spot on the bottom of my right foot. A spot where years prior one of those nails that you see on the back of some upholstery, the kind that looks like a large rounded button, had pierced my very sole.

I can still dimly remember the pain.

[jakenveina@lemm.ee]

Probably actually a broom handle... but, lol, yeah.

[jakenveina@lemm.ee]

I mean, yeah, those movies are the Saw prequels, is that not common knowledge?

He doesn't want us to saw through our chains...

Next thing we know you'll be claiming Willy Wonka's sequel continues on a train.

[undeffeined@lemmy.ml]

A perpetual motion train

I can't handle the spider scene. I got arachnophobia from watching it as a kid.

I stepped on a construction nail when I was like 9, went straight into my foot. I got a rust colored tattoo from it, that I still have.

Agreed on getting it back out sucking most.

Watched this movie the other day for the first time in forever.

When I was little, I thought Joe Pesci was the evil burglar. But holy cow, Daniel Stern is a monster. Joe Pesci steals a few things. Daniel Stern floods the houses and ruins lives for laughs.

To serve as a lesson for all the other builders of course.

Marv is dead.

As far as I understand you don't really want to remove something that stabbed you yourself if possible since it's slowing down how fast you're bleeding. Better let the medics remove it themselves

[banjoshepard@lemmy.world]

I once got a fishing hook in the back of my calf. Since the hook was barbed we did not try pulling it back out, so my dad pushed it the rest of the way through then cut the end off. I'm not exactly signing up to do it again, but all things considered it wasn't too bad.

I've never seen a ween used as a broom handle before

[barrelagedboredom@lemm.ee]

Even the medics save removing that shit for the hospital unless absolutely necessary. We even go so far as to add stuff to the puncture to make sure the offending object stays stable during transport. Source: am medic

I've done this, but into my heel. The good news is that it didn't go all the way through because of my heel bone. I'm lucky I wasn't about 6 inches back.

[grrgyle@slrpnk.net]

I remember stepping on a rusty nail as a kid, and I noticed that a plank of wood was stuck to my foot before I even registered how much pain I was in.
