Waiting for the transport to get off site, 30 odd welders milling about, bored....
So games get played and macho ego skills are tested... Some of you may know
'Kissing the flogger'.. Usually an old hand testing out an apprentice, with teeth missing when they realise it's a lot harder than it looks..
Any way.. I heard, 'Can anyone do this' and just had to video it... Well you don't often get the chance to film someone stab themselves...
I must admit, I have never been so gob smacked.. This is real.. No speeding up or photo shop..... He's using a centre punch, which are quite sharp, and thats a solid plate he has his hand on....
We now call him Bishop, and I'm his manager.....

Fair old speed he got to. We used to play that all the time in the RAF, we used a marlin spike though:



It didn't half hurt if you mistimed it :)

I was pretty crap at it to be honest...but there were some that used to get a speed up to match your fella. They could even do it drunk too. Not quite right in the head, but then you had to have a screw loose, to be a RAF Aerial Rigger.

TBH... Every time I've ever seen it done, it's been crap and ended in disaster...
That was what I was hoping to film......
I wasn't expecting that, and I still watch it in awe.... I didn't realise it was an official 'nutter' sport until I up-loaded to Youtube.... LOL

Used to do it with a boning knife and also used to use a chopper with someones hand flat on the block and chop between the fingers.

I've played it drunk with a meat cleaver, luckily I was chopping and the other guy had his hand out, I sometimes wonder what happened to me ol mate Stumpy (joking I didn't hit him once) lol x
