    Did that shit exactly once. Nail went between my toes, barely knicked me. Yeah, never fucking around again.

    And then there was the time I went Looney Tunes with a rake. Stumbling around, stunned and bleeding, hit it again. Yeah, had me in stitches.

      Oh that unlocked a memory.

      I used to work on a construction site and everyone wore steel toed boots, anyway one time it was very cold and some guy decided to lick the toe of his boot to see if it would stick to his tongue. It did.

      They were always a pain for being cold I remember. In a hot country they’d probably burn your toes. There’s a reason most people don’t wear metal shoes.

        the steel toe is usually underneath the leather/fabric… what kind of cartoon-ass boots you guys wearing?

          This was back in the '90s so I don’t really remember the details and I wasn’t actually there to witness it, just the aftermath. I assume the boot leather just wore down.

        Around here temperature varies from under -30c to over +30c depending on what season it is and construction workers still wear them every work day.

            I’m guessing Canada. We get similar temp range in north central and north eastern US.

            I’m in the Rocky Mountains, and our range is -15C to 40C (5F to 105F), and I wear my steel toe boots to shovel snow in the winter and garden in the summer. Oh, and I wear the same wool socks in both seasons, which keep my feet warm in the winter and dry in the summer.

            Parts of the US (and probably Canada) get to -40.

              Many boots now use composite fibres for toe and shank protection simply because of the problems with metal and cold.
