Accident with angle grinder ( warning )

Just to clarify for those that seem to think this type of accident only occurs if the guard is removed, You're just kidding yourself and you're WRONG! At least in my case, the proper guard was installed as it was supposed to be.

In my case at least, here's what happened. Using a 0.045" (thin) cutting wheel to cut through a B body frame rail, the wheel jambed tight between the steel of the rail. Spinning at over 10,000 RPM an instantaneous jamb like that doesn't just stop without some consequences. If the wheel stops, then all that torque is transferred into the handle of the tool. When that happens it is yanked out of your grasp (both hands were on the tool) in milliseconds and you have NO time to think about what just happened. At this point in time, the tool is now suspended in the air where you had last been holding it, but the wheel is now spinning again at 10,000+ RPM and most likely it is coming right at you from the kickback before gravity takes over and it starts to fall towards the floor. I don't care how fast you think you are, you CAN'T get out of the way fast enough.
