Who does something like that and then stands around taking pictures? Maybe I’m a pus, but I’d be crying for somebody to take me to the hospital. Much less do it and sit around taking pictures, but then use your only good hand to somehow post it to the internet presumably after your other hand has been stitched up? WTF?

Is that the same guy that accidentally put the NOS "Drink" in his fuel tank instead of the NOS "fuel additive"? I think it's the same "Jixxer" forum.

I think the dude is way too hard on himself. People do dumb **** all the time, you don't usually loose your fingers as a result but wtf.
At least he has a good sence of humor about it.

My question is, why would you want to wipe the chain off anyway? He doesn't want his chain dirty?

Now we know why on a new belt for the car on the directions. It says "make sure car is turned off and not running" Here's your sign!
