Here is a utterly weird thing that happened while I was filming my tank a few weeks ago.
One the guys working for me, is screaming my name over and over because a glass vase sliced through his arm while I was filming this. I will have to figure out how to edit the video.
He and I had just finished re-doing this tank 10 mins before the video was shot. He is on one side of the building and I am on the other. I started filming while he poured water out of vases. The vase cracked in the middle when he laid it down on a thin portion of the sink, and CRACK!!! He said it felt like someone rammed his arm in a wall.
He runs to me, "ERICA!!!ERICA!!!ERICA!!! WE HAVE TO GO NOW!!!" I said, "What?What's wrong?" "The big vase....." I had a vivid flashback of my old boss, washing a skinny version of the same vase. I remember hearing a clink sound and looked at him and watched him throw his arm in the air and watching blood fly. He wrapped his hand with a large white bath towel that was turning red before I could even reach him. I flashed back to my worker before he could even say,"Cut my arm." I saw his arm dripping blood and grabbed my shirt and tied his arm. We were both holding his arm running. I literally drove so fast that my truck wheels were screaming most of the way to the hospital!!!
All those times of serious driving prepared me for this drive, I know the average person could not have driven the way I did and not turned the truck over. I begged God please don't let his arm be damaged permanently. Please don't let him be like my old boss PLEASE!!!!
He had two cuts, the first, an inch long below the thumb and the other a two inch slice through the 3/4 of his tendon. His arm looked like someone filleted each of his cuts through the muscle.
He told me, I will never look at a flower vase the same and I will respect glass. You told me glass can injure you, you told me how your old boss was cut through the tendon to the bone and his thumb is permanently damaged. I didn't think that a glass vase could hurt me, a GLASS VASE???" I see why you always telling us, how to hold the vase and not just grab it."
We both thank God, that he made a speedy recovery and the cast is off and has full range of all fingers and movement. I reminded him that the night before when the other guy kept saying this glass vase won't break or crack and that I was over exaggerating. The irony was that it was the very same vase.
