The object in the video looks more like a thorn than a splinter
While clearing brush on our property it is not uncommon to have a long thorn puncture through heavy gloves. I carry a first aid kit on the carry all for just such occasions., consisting of Hydrogen peroxide , Betadine, lidocaine, triple antibiotic salve, liquid Benadryl 'immediately drink a whole bottle incase of rattle snake bite' a roll of 4"Corflex tape, gauze pads surgical tape and of course band-aids, the kit includes these plus many other items
