I'm guessing it's down to facebook security I can click on it and see it, though I didn't watch it because quite frankly I can't stand this sort of thing. I don't need to see the result of some idiot not having a guard on a grinder.

Exactly and if he'd had a guard on the the grinder it would have caught it

If you're using a grinder properly with the guard in between the disk and your face how is a shattered disk going to hit you in the face. It comes off spinning so the it's going to break up a bit more either hitting the guard or the work piece either way the bulk will spin away from you, I suppose there is a chance a bit might hit you but nothing like you see in the horror video like you posted

I'm not disappointed that I can't see the video, by the sound of it

what's the point in showing blood and guts its not going to stop people having accidents and who wants to see it anyhow

 

[123hotchef]

A warning to all to keep the guard fitted to there grinders. I am going to refit mine now!

I haven't bothered trying to watch it.

Not having a guard on a grinder really is a bit silly - if nothing else, how do you hang it up?

with the handle

And more to the point how do you remove it when it's in the way if it's not on it
