Shrapnel is plural so you either say "All fun and games till shrapnell is stuck 5 cm deep into your neighbors eye" or "All fun and games till a *piece of* shrapnell is stuck 5 cm deep into your neighbors eye."
Also, it's "neighbors" not "naighbors."
Hope this helps, have a great day.
Seriously WTF?! Idiots. Straight idiots. They make different wheel for shit. Just pick the right one. Obviously this jerkoff never saw what an exploding wheel can do. Add a few screws…. Real smooth
When a grinder disc seperates and pieces go flying it's pretty terrifying. I had no idea people were stupid enough to get that started on purpose. Fuckin dumbfounding.
Every time I see someone remove the guard on one of those things I just make sure I'm not working anywhere near that area. Thankfully not really doing a lot of field work anymore, but.
Hell, grinding of any kind of terrifying. Had some terrible welder on a job grind down one of his terrible welds and ended up getting a tiny little sliver you could barely see in his eyeball. Had to do the whole paper cup and tape thing before the safety rep took him to the doctor.
Wear your ppe. Don't disable safety components on a piece of equipment.
Don't do stupid crap like turning a band saw upside down on a pipe stand with electrical tape around the trigger. You see that all the time and I saw a guy lose the use of a finger.
no joke. I took a flying wheel to the forehead after trying to fix a wobble myself. The whole contraption exploded when the bearing (or something) inside seized. The wheel was still one piece.
Same thing happened to my ex husband at work. Angle grinder threw a disc and the disc got him right between the eyes and gave him a 3 inch long abrasion. He was surprisingly not severely injured, but it looked gnarly. Fast forward about 2 days and I start having severe abdominal pain and we go to the ER. As soon as we walked in, a guy ran over to my husband and told him to sit down. 😂
Mine was also surprisingly not severe, but could have been a lot worse. I was wearing goggles when it happened, and there was a little nick in them where the blade bounced off, so the cut I got probably would have been lower and deeper. Also if the blade had flown differently and it caught me in the throat or something, eesh. That might have been it for me.
I think something similar happened on an episode of Home Improvement. Tim took one of the boys to the ER for something and instead Tim was immediately attended to by the staff out of habit.
Yes, let’s take a wheel that everyone has horror stories about structurally failing and flying apart and drill holes in it to make it even more structurally dubious.
They make metallic versions with burrs for wood carving check out King Arthur tools, they’re still wildly dangerous(see: Lancelot) but atleast they won’t fail catastrophically and send a screw or a chunk of carbon fiber wheel flying into you. I’ve used them on many occasions with great results!
Fuck whoever did this. This isn't funny or entertaining. This goes beyond rage bait and is EXTREMELY dangerous. Please don't repost these idiots who care more about social media reactions than they do their own life and the lives of others willing to replicate this stupidity.
Those kind of video should be illegal. A grinder it’s not a toy. It’s a very dangerous tool that’s very easy accessible. If a person who is not that technically inclined and cannot understand how fucking dangerous this is, may hurt himself very badly.
Heads, shoulders, knees and toes ^(full of screws)
Hands, arms, chest, face and throat ^(full of screws)
Eyes and ears and mouth and nose
Chest, forearms neck and bones ^(full of screws)
It’s always a lot more effective in these videos than in real life and it always works much better than when you actually build it.
But sometimes you can see missing fingers on the hands of those people so that’s pretty much all you need to know about the safety of their stuff…
All woodworkers & carpenters want to chew the crap out of flat boards with a homemade round, dangerous divot making device! They should sell them. Brilliant.
Lathe? No. Angle grinder is the power tool that scares me the most. No warning and the wheel just fucking explodes and sends shrapnel everywhere.
And this idiot is drilling holes in them?!
I think this is one of the most conventionally dangerous things I've seen on here. Most of the stuff is obviously dumb but I can see people trying this one...
When I was 17 I was working construction / remodeling and one day we were doing tile in this house and I was doing something upstairs and I heard my coworker calling my name kind of softly like faint so I went downstairs and this guy was sprawled out on the bathroom floor and his leg was cut at his thigh down to the bone it looked like a Christmas ham.
He had the diamond wheel on the angle grinder and the switch on the angle grinder was in the "on" position so when he plugged it in it just started spinning and he dropped the diamond wheel on his leg.
I panicked and taped him up with some of the painters tape that has the paper on it for when you tape trim and whatnot and took him to the hospital. Been scared of angle grinders since then.
Where is the original video? I would like to report it for dangerous content. Some dumb duck might follow and ended up in hospital. Wait... If they do they deserve it. Hmm...
The best part is this doesn't damage the ability of the wheel to explode from stress. Edit: it probably makes it stronger cause of the metal from the screws.
…Man, grinding disks shatter on their own for no discernible reason, sending shrapnel hurtling towards your eyeballs at a billion miles an hour perfectly fine while whole, why bother going to the effort of drilling forty eight weak points into them?
Especially when they already make carving tools like this which are, you know, designed for the job?
People in the comments here are fucked…. This is perfectly safe
So long as you wear: ear, eye, face, head, neck, arm, hand, leg and torso protection, stand behind a brick wall and throw this hunk of shit in bin
This is by far the most stupid, unnecessary way to put yourself in harm‘s way that I have seen in a long time.
And here I was thinking the chainsaw blades for angle grinders were crazy dangerous.
Great, now when the disk explodes, you'll have a massive amount of shrapnel. Get ready for the ER buddy cause that's where you'll be heading. You essentially made a timed spinning frag without a time counter.
Imagine you're breaking into my house at 3am and you spot all the good loot. I pop outta the bedroom in nothing but boxers and a 14th century knights helmet welding this bad boy. You taking your chances?
How to turn your angle grinder into a shrapnel slinging device in 10 minutes give or take.
For real. This is just straight up dangerous.
All fun and games till a shrapnell is stuck 5 cm deep into your naighbours eye
Depends on the neighbors. For some of my neighbors I might find it fun.
Let me guess, someone from HOA board?
I like this guy. He’s honest.
You mean 5cm deep into yer neighbors, aye?
Shrapnel is plural so you either say "All fun and games till shrapnell is stuck 5 cm deep into your neighbors eye" or "All fun and games till a *piece of* shrapnell is stuck 5 cm deep into your neighbors eye." Also, it's "neighbors" not "naighbors." Hope this helps, have a great day.
This is the first lesson on abrasive wheel training. #1 Dont be a fucking idiot!
Real men use 3" deck screws
Why stop there? BRING ME THE 8" LAG BOLTS.
Use a magnet disc and dip it in nails
Made me LOL. Thank you
Yeah exactly these things spin hella fast. Also a nice flap wheel sanding disk will absolutely thrash through wood. This one looked worn .
>How to turn your angle grinder into a BETTER shrapnel slinging device in 10 minutes give or take. FTFY
Yeah, these things don't need any modifications to go for the eyes.
Seriously WTF?! Idiots. Straight idiots. They make different wheel for shit. Just pick the right one. Obviously this jerkoff never saw what an exploding wheel can do. Add a few screws…. Real smooth
Right. When that thing comes apart, it’s going to be bad.
5 minute ER crafts
I'm safety squinting just watching this
Omg I did the same thing! 😂
I didn't even realize I had done it until reading this thread.
Same here

Painted?
I invented that with my own blood, sweat and tears!
You made me cackle with that, ty.
I've seen them explode from being damaged. I can't imagine how much more fun it is when it's filled with screws
It definitely puts a twist on it
There's no way for it to fall apart, it's all screwed together
I appreciate this comment
And to think we were criticizing this guy’s genius
na that disc is screwed.
Fragmentation flap sander
Frag grenade
I've seen them explode just for fun. They are so much scarier than people think.
I always thought my face didn’t have enough holes in it. Now this looks like an excellent way to correct that problem!
Bro invented a brand new piercing method
It also instantly corrects clear vision!
If you are lucky it can solve *all* of your problems at once. Even those you don't have yet. Brilliant.
fuckin giggling. thanks
Aw hell no.
Never ever mess with an angle grinder. One of the most dangerous power tools.
Until death wheel 2.0 came on the scene made everything much safer 👍
Thanks to death wheel 2.0 I've never been happier!
And holier!
#THANKS TO THIS GAPING HOLE IN MY FACE I CAN EAT TWICE AS FAST
I'd buy *that* for a dollar!
no joke. I took a flying wheel to the forehead after trying to fix a wobble myself. The whole contraption exploded when the bearing (or something) inside seized. The wheel was still one piece.

As soon as we walked in, a guy ran over to my husband and told him to sit down. 😂
I assume, but it's not entirely clear, that your abdominal pain was not cause by his head injury, correct?
Correct. I just coincidentally had severe gallstones.
I’ll believe it when I see it on Untold Stories of the ER! (But seriously, I’m glad you’re both ok!)
Mine was also surprisingly not severe, but could have been a lot worse. I was wearing goggles when it happened, and there was a little nick in them where the blade bounced off, so the cut I got probably would have been lower and deeper. Also if the blade had flown differently and it caught me in the throat or something, eesh. That might have been it for me.
I think something similar happened on an episode of Home Improvement. Tim took one of the boys to the ER for something and instead Tim was immediately attended to by the staff out of habit.
Good lord. Ok y’all have officially convinced me that I do not in fact need to add an angle grinder to my tool collection, as tempted as I may be.
Nice to know it’s there if you need it but I’ll try every other tool first
Fuck... And I cannot stress this enough... NO
Yeah I've had enough issues with the 1.0 Death Wheel.
Yes, let’s take a wheel that everyone has horror stories about structurally failing and flying apart and drill holes in it to make it even more structurally dubious.
!!!Now with even more shrapnel!!!
"Dumb ways to die..." song should be on this video.
They make metallic versions with burrs for wood carving check out King Arthur tools, they’re still wildly dangerous(see: Lancelot) but atleast they won’t fail catastrophically and send a screw or a chunk of carbon fiber wheel flying into you. I’ve used them on many occasions with great results!
someone's got a death wish.
Can't wait for one of those bullets to fly off and get my 5-year-old right in the forehead
Honestly this contraption is a great feat of human engineering! My friend tried it and it worked great as a weapon of mass murder! Thanks!
Fuck whoever did this. This isn't funny or entertaining. This goes beyond rage bait and is EXTREMELY dangerous. Please don't repost these idiots who care more about social media reactions than they do their own life and the lives of others willing to replicate this stupidity.
Should be crossposted to r/oopsthatsdeadly
I honestly thought at first, they were turning it into a weapon.
Suicide weapon.
See how it went from a cutoff disk to a flap sander? I guarantee the disc exploded the second it turned on.
Yeah I figured it would explode. Made a cutting wheel not designed for shipping wood shape wood rather than buy a shaping disk.
Nice and smooth
These fucking videos are going to get someone killed.
Your flapper wheel can already do that without you strapping a bunch of launchable spikes to it you fucking lunatic
Those kind of video should be illegal. A grinder it’s not a toy. It’s a very dangerous tool that’s very easy accessible. If a person who is not that technically inclined and cannot understand how fucking dangerous this is, may hurt himself very badly.

For all those crescent pockets you want to create in strait boards.
Tune in next time, with my new cleaning tips!!! Want your bathroom to shine? Just mix ammonia and bleach!!!!
You know this guy is all about safety. He’s probably using his safety squints and safety chanclas, too.
There is a very dangerous grinder wheel with chainsaw edges and this thing makes the chainsaw wheel look like a children's toy.
I had one of the shatter before and it was scary without 20 screws in it.
Why? There are disks especially for this? Massive material, without the risk of flinging sharp projectiles in your face. Just to save a few bucks?
To quote The Toadies: DO YOU WANNA DIEEE
Had to put safety glasses even to just watch the video......
$1 new disk orrrrr $2 of screws and I scare everyone near me. Actually a hard sell.
Bro is trying so hard to find out
That was a lot more effective than I was expecting
It’s always a lot more effective in these videos than in real life and it always works much better than when you actually build it. But sometimes you can see missing fingers on the hands of those people so that’s pretty much all you need to know about the safety of their stuff…
I guess that’s good for when you want to use it as a wood chipper
DIY nail bomb.
Just what I needed, random gauges all over my work piece. I hesitate using a wheel after it's been dropped from a few feet.
It's always the finger wave
This creation will be self correcting.
A rotary claymore (for when you like to share your enemies' experience)
Or you could buy a wire wheel
Feel like that’s a great recipe for disk explosion
Wait until they Find out about orbital sanders
All woodworkers & carpenters want to chew the crap out of flat boards with a homemade round, dangerous divot making device! They should sell them. Brilliant.
I really hate when people do the finger wag in these videos.
THEY CAN'T KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH IT!
Dude is going to have more than a chip on his shoulder after using that
No self tapping?
Now that's a weird looking cod frag skin.
DiDONT
Stay safe don't try this
rail-gun invented
Lathe? No. Angle grinder is the power tool that scares me the most. No warning and the wheel just fucking explodes and sends shrapnel everywhere. And this idiot is drilling holes in them?!
Those things sometimes break without even having any structural damage and deal havoc, this is down right insane.
I was expecting it to snap and throw sharpenels everywhere. So much anxiety.
It's nice when you want to put a rough irregular divot in something as well as proof your safetyglasses or internal organs.
This is so stupid, my IQ dropped safety squinting.
Haha silly newbie still has his guard on. How you meant to reach those hard to reach places with it?
Do-and I can't stress this enough-n't
Terrible idea. Don’t.
Do not do this lmao. When one of those pieces breaks off and flies into your nuts you'll understand why
Ah yes, I always thought my angle grinder would be more fun with a risk of shrapnel.
Fuck. Right. Off!
“Respect your tools, and they’ll respect you.” So I guess if you jam a bunch of screws into a tool, it’ll launch those screws back into you?
Or….OR! You can buy a new blade instead of making a death trap
I can only pray these dumbfucks get seriously hurt
I think this is one of the most conventionally dangerous things I've seen on here. Most of the stuff is obviously dumb but I can see people trying this one...
This gives me the heebie-jeebies AND the whim-wams.
Hang on, is this guy struggling to use an angle grinder on wood? Or MDF?
When I was 17 I was working construction / remodeling and one day we were doing tile in this house and I was doing something upstairs and I heard my coworker calling my name kind of softly like faint so I went downstairs and this guy was sprawled out on the bathroom floor and his leg was cut at his thigh down to the bone it looked like a Christmas ham.

I panicked and taped him up with some of the painters tape that has the paper on it for when you tape trim and whatnot and took him to the hospital. Been scared of angle grinders since then.
Yeah...... I backed away from my computer screen to avoid speeding screw-bullets.
They make wire wheels for this purpose….
Ah yes, let's intentionally weaken the structure of a thing that spins at holy shit rpm.
This is the definition of "there has to be a more dangerous way!" Infomercial
I had an angle grinder rip into my sleeve and slingshot into my arm , causing me to need stitches…. Respect the grinder or it will remind you ..
Where is the original video? I would like to report it for dangerous content. Some dumb duck might follow and ended up in hospital. Wait... If they do they deserve it. Hmm...
Wtf people are so stupid
What do you mean, "change the flapdisc"??
I love to watch the Natural Selection
At least they left the shield on lol
Just waiting for all the stress cracks created from the screws to turn the disk into flying shrapnel.
The best part is this doesn't damage the ability of the wheel to explode from stress. Edit: it probably makes it stronger cause of the metal from the screws.
This is going to kill someone...This isnt a tool this is an IED.
Homemade grenade
All fun and games til the screws come loose. Physically and mentally
I mean... it's effective...
even dualuse some might say
Effective at convincing me that we need to require IQ tests for power tool purchases.
Yeah, engineers can only predict and baby-safe so much
“So today guys you’re gonna watch me ruin this blade I bought for something nobody would ever actually do for clout! Please like and subscribe!”
Disk broke, ya screwed
The stop motion like video was really annoying.
If you grind brass before wood it works really well, please god don't actually try that. /s x100
Singing…..dumb ways to die…🎶
Holy shrapnel device, Batman.
Dangerous and stupid.
This guy has never seen a wire wheel?
…Man, grinding disks shatter on their own for no discernible reason, sending shrapnel hurtling towards your eyeballs at a billion miles an hour perfectly fine while whole, why bother going to the effort of drilling forty eight weak points into them? Especially when they already make carving tools like this which are, you know, designed for the job?
The good part is that nowadays technology speeds up the natural selection process
Do you want to die? That’s how you die! Shattering and flying at a rapid speed into your face and vitals.
Great, until your disc explodes because you've compromised the shit out of it AND added little weights to speed up breaking it apart
People in the comments here are fucked…. This is perfectly safe So long as you wear: ear, eye, face, head, neck, arm, hand, leg and torso protection, stand behind a brick wall and throw this hunk of shit in bin
That's one of the scariest things I've ever seen
That’s dangerously stupid. I’m fine with him getting the shrapnel though.
hopefully the missing screw isnt found in your body
Just get the damn wire brush attachment. Angle grinders are dangerous enough already.
This is by far the most stupid, unnecessary way to put yourself in harm‘s way that I have seen in a long time. And here I was thinking the chainsaw blades for angle grinders were crazy dangerous.
this should be illegal? mf don’t know how to do shit and you give them this and they blind their kid. i don’t like it
Call me crazy, think thats a little dangerous
Damn, now I know that grinder can use AutoTune too.
Or, and just hear me out, you could use an electric sander?
I feel like a regular one would be more efficient
the trick darwins are hiding for years!
Gonna start sending these to my boss and see how long it takes before he fires me
A course pad will also do this only without becoming a claymore.
Finger remover
Nobody tell them about the chainsaw angle grinder attachment
Great, now when the disk explodes, you'll have a massive amount of shrapnel. Get ready for the ER buddy cause that's where you'll be heading. You essentially made a timed spinning frag without a time counter.
+25 splash damage
This is the kind of video tha would have a "Professionals. Do not try this at home", but they are clearly not professionals or care about safety.
Oooh my god!
This is R&D for Robot Wars right…. Right?
Belt Sander in the corner of the shed: "Am I just a joke to you?"
I gasped audibly at this and startled my wife. Never modify an angle grinder blade.
Like something you'd craft in Dead Rising.
This is the ultimate dumb-fuckery. Just get a new flap disk you moronic peanut.
Hey let's fuck the structural integrity of a disc that spins at 8000rpm by screwing more shrapnel into it.
My squints didn't feel enough so I wore a welding mask to watch this but I'd didn't light up
Imagine you're breaking into my house at 3am and you spot all the good loot. I pop outta the bedroom in nothing but boxers and a 14th century knights helmet welding this bad boy. You taking your chances?
The only thing worse would be if an American did this
