Re: Reader Says Mythbusters Missed on Hammer Strikes

Well, I don't know about the Mythbusters, but I have a .22 caliber bullet sized hunk of hammer in my left bicep.

While working in a coal mine in PA in 1975 my boss was trying to break a flight chain. He place the peen of a hammer on one of the pins and smacked it with another hammer.

I felt a jerk in my arm and saw a hole in my shirt. When I got to the hospital I was told that the fragment was embedded too deep to remove and that I would be OK if it were left in.

Never had any trouble with it, but to this day I'll NEVER hit a hammer with a hammer.

I would be very interested in the cause of this fire. Please post the details if you can.
