I was working at a hobby shop wile I was going to school in South Carolina, and a guy I sold a 60 size helicopter to a couple of days before came in with blood on his hands and clothes. (this is before electric helis) I asked what happined, and he said that when he fired up the heli, it tried to take off and he grabbed the boom and got cut by the tail blades. I asked, "Why didn't you let it go? That's very dangerious you could have gotten really hurt." He replyed, "I didn't want it to hit the TV." Not thinking the obvious I said, "You have a TV outside?" He said, "no", I was in the living room.

I should have told him to bring it back in because he wasn't smart enough to have a heli...
