Well, I've heard of this happening to somebody when they fell off whilst their finger was in a finger-crack:

I guarantee that this photo will make any climber squirm:

:P
ahh.... the pleasure of "degloving" injuries knows no bounds,  seen a whole arm before  - imagine large roller type press thing and it's slowly "taking" your arm into it, your arm or your life as your head comes closer to the roller.....so the bloke just pulled and pulled...he ripped his own (rather mangled) arm off, had a heart attack, but survived - he took a fair while to come to terms with it all though!! Will have severe unrelenting pain from nerves being stretched and torn....hmmm...nice.

mercifully these anjuries are now much rarer. the HSE may actually be a worthwhile intsitiution!!

Fuck me Fatdoc, trust a doctor to come out with a story like that  :D

That's awful - how hard would you have to pull away from the press to actually de-glove your arm??? Aaaagh! Horrorshow!
