Man Loses Finger Showing How He Lost Thumb

Keith Sanderson, a British machine operator who sliced off his thumb with a guillotine machine at a kitchen worktop factory near Newcastle lost part of his finger when he tried to demonstrate to his bosses how the first accident happened.

The company, which admitted to breaching the the Health and Safety at Work Act of 1974, has been fined. "It was a regrettable and unfortunate incident," said a company spokesman. "Keith has not yet returned to work but he has the option of coming back to work with the company."

One wonders why there is a "guillotine machine" there in the first place....

Perhaps, it's a guillotine machine factory.
