Distant cousin of SWMBO was found dead in his workshop a couple of years
ago, and police originally treated it as suspicious. However, it
emerged that he'd disabled a safety feature on his industrial-grade
circular saw - I don't know the details but I think he somehow got
impaled on a length of wood he was cutting and bled to death before
being able to summon help.
