    Zip cuts are no joke, but I think this one might have been staged to scare the new guys. This doesn't look like how zip cuts normally fail, and I think the half that's left in the grinder would have been launched too. It looks somebody put a zip cut on the corner of a table, broke it in half in a straight line, then put one half in a grinder.

    Don't get me wrong, that giving new guys "the talk" is one of the first things I do. You need to give new people a respect for the tools and the machinery. But I think this might have been a staged safety demonstration.

    I agree with the staged concept. also face shields are not safety glasses
    Never try to tell me it can't be done
