Could have ended up much worse. How many things did they do wrong?


I think that clip is faked.

It sure looks like his right leg was well over the lathe bed before the
scene shifted and he was on his back with his right foot under the
chuck. How did it get back up there?

Opines please...


Done in one cut as far as I see. The videographer nearly got a foot
in the head is why the scene shifted slightly.
