Could have been worse, like lego bricks.
Lego bricks at night on a patterned carpet…
You should see the movie Home Alone took the idea from (3615-Code Père Nöel).
Kinda wild what slipped through to kid-acceptable content lol. I still remember the cell saga of DBZ as particularly freaky to me when cell form 1 was going around stabbing regular people and sucking them into his tail. My sister had a similar moment with the thriller video because Jackson’s contacts were scary.

I personally wouldn’t let anyone under 16 watch that movie.
I literally cannot watch that scene. When it comes on, I gotta look away or leave. But Saw? Sign me up!
I remember stepping on a rusty nail as a kid, and I noticed that a plank of wood was stuck to my foot before I even registered how much pain I was in.
I did the same when I was 10. Got lucky with the position and did no real damage despite the nail coming out the top of the top of my shoe.
I pulled my foot back and the nail come out. Went to tell my dad what happened and he was talking to someone and told me to wait so i did for about 5 minutes. I wasn’t bawling in pain so he didn’t know anything was wrong.
Went to hospital and got an X-ray, a tetanus shot and a bandage.

Same. Was in my grandfather’s ranch as a kid and didn’t see it coming as it was buried under cow shit. Apparently boot soles don’t protect much against nails.
(Potentially) rusty nail covered in cow shit. That sounds like a bacterial nightmare.
I mean not a nightmare for the bacteria
That’s what happened when I snapped my ulna and radius. Didn’t know anything was wrong until I couldn’t rotate my arm.
I looked down, saw it, then it started hurting.
Watched this movie the other day for the first time in forever.
When I was little, I thought Joe Pesci was the evil burglar. But holy cow, Daniel Stern is a monster. Joe Pesci steals a few things. Daniel Stern floods the houses and ruins lives for laughs.
Wasn’t Daniel Stern willing to stop robbing the house because there’s a kid? I trust the guy who does property damage over the one who’s dead set on terrorizing and torturing a kid.
It reminds me of that story where a robber steals a car, then when he notices there’s a kid in it he turns the car around to chastise the parent for leaving the kid inside. Don’t be a thief, but if you are don’t torture kids.
The fucking police defended the idiot mother.
When the criminals have more sense than the police you know a society is fucked.
Yeah, Harry just wanted to steal everything and vanish. His primary concern was simply getting away without any witnesses, so they could ghost with the money they had stolen. He wasn’t going to bother with petty theft, and was content to stay on the down low if it meant they’d be safe from the law.
Marv was portrayed as being the dumb one, but he was outright sociopathic in his actions, and had zero qualms about blatantly harming others if it meant he’d get famous. His primary concern was with garnering infamy and making a name for themselves as thieves. He wanted everyone to know that the Wet Bandits had stolen from them. And that is diametrically opposed to Harry’s goal of ghosting after their big score.
Wired’s YouTube channel has a fun video with a trauma surgeon discussing all of the injuries from the first 2 home alones.
Just brutal.
I once saw a guy nail his hand to a wall with a big ol 16 penny ringshank l, they had to cut him loose with a sawzall. Hoo boy you heard him holler.
I always combined this scene, that memory, and the one time I stepped on a nail in Boy Scouts into one “respect the presence of pointy things” lesson/memory
Why didn’t you guys just remove the nail instead of cutting his hand off?
As far as I understand you don’t really want to remove something that stabbed you yourself if possible since it’s slowing down how fast you’re bleeding. Better let the medics remove it themselves
Just realized I misread your comment, oops
Even the medics save removing that shit for the hospital unless absolutely necessary. We even go so far as to add stuff to the puncture to make sure the offending object stays stable during transport. Source: am medic
Yup, medics will just wrap the entire hand in tape and gauze to keep it stable, then transport to the hospital. Because it’s always possible that removal will require surgery, so they want to be near an operating room before they try.
To serve as a lesson for all the other builders of course.
He doesn’t want us to saw through our chains…
The homage to this in Violent Night dials it up to 11.
I just saw that yesterday and I got very giddy as Home Alone was my favorite movie when I was younger. They even did the lines!
Damn I don’t even remember that in this movie.
I do cringe from the memory of it happening in “a quiet place” though.
Never noticed the hotdog in the background before.
Probably actually a broom handle… but, lol, yeah.
I’ve never seen a ween used as a broom handle before
I can still feel the spot on the bottom of my right foot. A spot where years prior one of those nails that you see on the back of some upholstery, the kind that looks like a large rounded button, had pierced my very sole.
I can still dimly remember the pain. The worst wasn’t stepping on it, the worst was getting the fucker back out.
I once got a fishing hook in the back of my calf. Since the hook was barbed we did not try pulling it back out, so my dad pushed it the rest of the way through then cut the end off. I’m not exactly signing up to do it again, but all things considered it wasn’t too bad.
Your dad knew his stuff. Fish hooks can be nasty if they’re not properly removed, because that barb will rip everything on the way out.
I mean, yeah, those movies are the Saw prequels, is that not common knowledge?
Next thing we know you’ll be claiming Willy Wonka’s sequel continues on a train.
A perpetual motion train
I stepped on a construction nail when I was like 9, went straight into the arch of my foot. I got a rust colored tattoo from it, that I still have.
Agreed on getting it back out sucking most.
I’ve done this, but into my heel. The good news is that it didn’t go all the way through because of my heel bone. I’m lucky I wasn’t about 6 inches back.
