Hell yeah, it's dangerous.... especially the way he has it oriented.
There are safe ways to do it, but not like that.

Of course, my question is always.... WHY!?
Why have two objects moving, the stock and the blade?
Why not rough it out with a regular hand held gouge tool.
Anyone who's been turning a year can rough that out with a gouge faster
than it took him with that contraption. I'm sure there are
eleventy-thousand youtube videos showing it.
