grease gun accident

   / grease gun accident #11  
Speaking of grease gun safety, last week I was trying to pump grease into a clogged fitting, both hands on the grease gun's lever pushing as hard as I could when the flex hose sprung a leak. The tiny stream of grease must have shot 10'. It got me thinking if my hand or leg was in contact with the hose at that pin hole break I might have been injected with grease. That could be serious. I replaced the flex hose but don't think I'll ever stress one that hard again.
