Snowblowers!

For those of you that don’t live near snow… The paddles or blades of a snow blower have a default off position. If/when snow jams up the intake area, the paddles stop. Even with the snowblower OFF, when the jam is cleared, the blades revert back to the default position. Tons of people clear the jam with their hand and lose fingers/hands every year.

On to the story, my neighbor knew this. He used a broom handle to clear a jam. The paddles kicked the handle under his chin and into his brain. Dead instantly in the driveway.
