Watch Video: Oregon man narrowly escapes death by runaway saw blade

would it have killed him?

 

the concrete saw blade weights somewhere around 40 lbs. it's moving towards the door at 30-50km/hr, it's also rotating at hundreds if not thousands of rpm's. the cutting part isn't sharp. more abrassive with corners and edges

i think it would have fucked him up, break some bones and send him flying but he'd live

Could happen to anyone if we don't stay sharp.
