This didn't happen to me.
There is a guy on the crew who lost his thumb to a hole saw on the drill press. The pipe slipped and in his thumb went.
It was a clean cut and they managed to sew the thumb back on. Ah, the miracles of modern sciende. It's too bad they didn't connect the proper artery that fed to the thumb. Five days later they had to remove the now dead thumb. Oops.
However there is an alternative to not having a thumb. Months go by as they decide whether it's feasible and whether it's covered. It is and he is. They remove his big toe and attach it to where his thumb used to reside. It is one of the most freakish and cool things I have seen. He gives everyone a big toe up and he kicks ass at thumb wars.
All told, he was out of work for eighteen months. Yet another sacrifice to the film gods.

So much for the flickr badge idea. Dammit
