| ...sorry to hear about your accident, hope that battery makes it through OK! 
ive never had any mishaps with batteries, but airplane props are like magnets to my fingers!
one time i was holding the glow starter on my motor on my plane while my buddy turned it over, not realizing, i had my index finger dangling over the prop, needless to say it whacked the tip of my finger a few hundred times and sprayed blood all over my plane like a fire hose! we could figure out where it was coming from till I lifted my arm away and blood dripped down my arm, i didnt feel anything for about 5 minutes, then it started throbbing like i hit it with a hammer! it was a tiny gash, but i think it got down to my bone.
my plane was ok, the blood wiped off |
Ouuuuuch, don't add a bruised ego to those other hurts. Stuff happens-I have really gross pics of two of my fingers(that I won't share) that I shoved into an 18" prop, thank God the prop was wood and choke was on (gas engine) and the RPM's were low, or I might not be typing this right now.
