    I guess we will just have to be content to disagree on this point. Heavy duty, mid-size or mini lathe does not make a bit of difference to the shirt in question in this video. I was very clear in the message you refer to, in this specific situation, the shirt saved the man. I am not arguing that spinning machine parts are not dangerous. I am very aware of the dangers of entanglement. I personally know of one person who was killed when his jacket got caught in the PTO shaft of a farm tractor.
