one of my buddies who does construction was working on some flashing on a roof w/his dad. he had an angle grinder (was working on metal flashing) in his lap and did the same thing except he wasn't so lucky. he got cut open pretty good!
I mean I put a bungie cord around it, or something before removing any of the the bolts from the yoke to keep it from falling. I was removing the rear driveshaft in the garage and started at the T-case end. I usually just kept a hand on it when removing it and just let it hang when removing ghe u-straps on the other end, This time just before I could get a good grip, the last bolt let go and it swung down and caught me in the eye.
