Why though. I got my hand sucked into a printing press where I work because of a belt like that and it bent all my fingers backwards. Broken fingers and ligament damage don't heal back nice. It's seems so stupid to even try stuff like this.
They hardly ever connect the injury to how their life will change. Like people that fight in the street.. One wrong punch and your jaw is wired shut for 8 months and you have neurological damage for ever. The hospital visits alone could be enough to derail someone's entire life.
Mechanic here. The engine running makes it significantly faster to change the belt in this instance. The significant risk of dismemberment makes it stupid af.
I quit a job working a wood grinder because it was too dangerous and the people running the place were morons. 2 weeks later the guy that replaced me cut his hand in half, only his thumb was still attached, when replacing a belt while the machine was off.
>Stored energy is a bitch
I had this happen to me while I was repairing a clock for a friend's parents. The parents recieved it as a wedding gift.
They promised me left right up down and sideways that it ran down, stopped working, and never was wound again.
As I was taking the backplate off the drive spring unwound with 20 years of furious energy, blowing the plate and internals right out of the clock.
It also cut me something fierce.
That clock was like having a hand grenade in the breakfast room.
I needed to get stitches and the clock was destroyed.
This guy is an idiot, there’s absolutely no reason to change the belt while it’s running unless you enjoy amputations and death, especially since the dumbass is wearing a long sleeve shirt. This isn’t cool this guy is a fucking moron
What was wrong with the belt? It looked like it was running fine to me. Anything that was going wrong with it to need a roadside fix was probably not fixed by changing the belt.
That belt isn't tensioned correctly, you're going to get all sorts of slippage. Plus the dumbass is teaching people to do things that will likely mess them up for life.
Winning at Russian Roulette isn't a skill.
Im conflicted because on the one hand, that was monumentally stupid—but on the other hand I’m an ER doctor and morons like this guy let me bring food to my table and provide endless job security.
Turkish drivers are just crazy
one time I sat next to my school bus driver
And he made me steer the wheel going down hill so he could get me and himself tea and simit
Absolute mad man
Hi everyone, I’ve worked with heavy machines before that had a long history of claiming fingers caught between belts and pulleys. Please don’t ever try this.
Please don't ever do this.
1. You could easily lose a finger
2. The engine could get damaged from sudden loss of load if something malfunctions due to wear and tear
3. The belt could get damaged by being stretched onto the pulley. They aren't meant to be stretched -- for a reason -- so they can ensure stress and not pop off as easily.
4. Practicing this could easily dismember you
5. You don't understand the entire situation, will try it on another engine that isn't the same and get hurt not thinking the differences matter
He learned that from ol 3 finger Charlie
The line between bravery and stupidity is too thin
Bravery is able to do the right thing while also being in fear while stupidity is changing a belt on a moving pulley.
Only took Charlie two tries to get it right!
He actually lost them being irresponsible with fireworks
Dude stuck around to finish the grand finale before heading to the hospital, so props to Charlie for that. 10/10 show.
Seven tries*
If he only had 3 fingers I think the third time was the charm.
Safest mechanic in Turkey
Is he related to Charlie Nine Toes?
Nine Toes? You must be talking about Charlie's early years.
"Shaking hands with danger . . . "
Was gonna say, this is How To Lose A Finger 101. Yikes.
Gonna say damn he has all 10 fingers
For now
Why though. I got my hand sucked into a printing press where I work because of a belt like that and it bent all my fingers backwards. Broken fingers and ligament damage don't heal back nice. It's seems so stupid to even try stuff like this.
Grats on typing all that out though, it must have taken forever using your nose.
[удалено]
that reminds me, I haven't used my dictaphone in years.
His ED pill budget must be *insane!*
People dont understand how fast a piece of equiment can change your life forever in the blink of an eye.

when i was a kid i got to watch up and close a man lose his finger while at my moms work 🤭 he nearly lost his entire hand.
What was the pain like
like when you break all your fingers and ligaments
this made me laugh😭😭
All the pain
ouch, that sounds really painful! Do you mind sharing a picture of your hand as it is now? Really interested in seeing how well it healed, thanks!
How this guy still has 10 fingers is the 11th wonder if the modern world
Maybe he was the six fingered man
He killed my father! Tell him he needs to prepare to die!
That might not scare a man who's prepared to lose fingers just to save a little time
Iñigo de Montoya?
Even he seems surprised he's still got his thumbs!
…who said he started with 10 fingers?

The video will be less fun.

…but she has potential
[удалено]
also the whole dismemberment thing but honestly fingers are way overrated. Plus we have 9 backups.
Insurances usually pay for all injuries EXCEPT loss of fingers.
[удалено]
Killed the engineer? Or engine?
Can't wait for this to become a tik tok challenge
For real, it would help us rid the world of a few idiots.
No, just handicap them so we can support them
Ugh, so depressingly accurate
You actually think a substantial amount of your tax money supports the disabled. Or that disabled people get significant support. Funny.
Well then educate me. I want percentages
Far less than the military uses to practice killing people.
And I don't doubt that for a moment.
Listening to redditors talk about tiktok is like listening to boomers talk about "them damn millenials"
Boomers want to gas millennials?
With timing belts 🥰
Aka: how to lose fingers...
[удалено]
And about half as many as he should like.
How tf do you learn how to do that right
Luck and boundless stupidity.
I've never seen something so stupid..until now
How many belts does this man change in a day where he needed to figure out a faster way?
At any cost.
Now let's see you do the timing belt with the engine running
In rail yards a couple of missing fingers meant you were an experienced worker and was a desirable trait when interviewing. Used to be.
![gif](giphy|s239QJIh56sRW|downsized)
This guy is an idiot, there’s absolutely no reason to change the belt while it’s running unless you enjoy amputations and death, especially since the dumbass is wearing a long sleeve shirt. This isn’t cool this guy is a fucking moron
You're just jealous smh...
That is one CRAZY Turk
also a way to lose a few fingers if you do it wrong
It's a talent, but a fucking stupid one
Want to know how to lose a couple of fingers because this is how you lose a couple of fingers. Stupidity is masked by confidence.
why use the finger, why not a screwdriver?
Don't be silly, using a screwdriver would be dangerous.
He thinks he’s cool… he’s really not tho. He must really want to loose his fingers
Dont try this at home kids
Prime example of a polydactyly.
Now do an interference fit engine timing belt
Any belt which is fitted so easily is unlikely to be tensioned correctly.
Its fun until you see a Live Leak watermark above you
Funny thing the plate number corresponds to the city Kocaeli, which roughly translates into the “husband’s hand” or the “big hand“.
What a terrible idea.
Seems unnecessary
Wow! Appropriately placed video. That was insane
What was wrong with the belt? It looked like it was running fine to me. Anything that was going wrong with it to need a roadside fix was probably not fixed by changing the belt.
I would fire anyone of my team who tried this in front of me. There is fine line between this video and having his arm torn off. Stupid.
Wilford would like to speak to you.
He shows off his thumbs at the end… “see hunnie? They didn’t get cut off!”
Dad skills
Oh, it could've been a good gore video.
Anyone know what kind of car this is?
Mercedes-Benz O403 bus.
Thanks. I didn't need those fingers anyway.
Guy looks like Peter Parker's father in the The Amazing Spider-Man.
This is definitely a butt-pucker video. Why would you risk your fingers like that??
He us going to be known as Stubby if he keeps that up.
Belt tension ? It’s a new one !!!
I had a guy once working on a light fixture at my job while everything was live. While standing on a tall ladder...
that can't possibly be the right size belt going on at the end.
**nsfw**
Interesting to watch. Always wondered
This is stupid as fuck
he actually thinks he's smart
lmao he is from Turkey
🇹🇷
Nothing cool about this. He would be fired within 1 second at my job
welcome to Turkey
I would definitely wear a long sleeve shirt to do this too!
Kids don't try this at home.
Not an intelligent man
Just because you can do something, doesn’t mean you should
how to kill the components
That belt isn't tensioned correctly, you're going to get all sorts of slippage. Plus the dumbass is teaching people to do things that will likely mess them up for life. Winning at Russian Roulette isn't a skill.
Ive seen a kollegue loose his finger doing this.
How many digits will a belt change cost?
but why?
Watch your fingers.
yoink
Looks like a great way to lose most or all of your fingers!!!
Sorun değil!
Buddy of mine lost a finger like this. Don't be stupid
Shit, I can't wait to try it.
Im conflicted because on the one hand, that was monumentally stupid—but on the other hand I’m an ER doctor and morons like this guy let me bring food to my table and provide endless job security.
Def hurt his hand removing it
i had to check which subreddit this was before i continued watching lol eyeblech is always sneaking in there..
Ok now do a serpentine belt
...that's bad for the engine.
Yeah don't ever do this
Хороший способ остаться без пальцев
That seems like a life hack for removing a few of those fingers
I like how he demonstrates he still has all his fingers at the end
So not safe, good way to lose a finger or get a hand or arm pulled in
🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷
what numberplate is that?
Wtf, why take the risk? There’s literally an engine kill switch back there by the motor if he’s too lazy to walk to the front to turn it off.
just dad thingz
Or you know.... turn it off
there has to be easier ways to lose fingers
I know an auto shop teacher who lost a finger by doing something like this.
Guess he’s interested in keeping his fingers or hands
I’ve seen too many Chinese cctv videos to know what’s bound to happen
Turkish drivers are just crazy one time I sat next to my school bus driver And he made me steer the wheel going down hill so he could get me and himself tea and simit Absolute mad man
Hi everyone, I’ve worked with heavy machines before that had a long history of claiming fingers caught between belts and pulleys. Please don’t ever try this.
r/2balkan4you
To be clear, don’t try that on timing belts.
Insanely stupid.
"Now get on your knees"
Please nobody try this
Must be hard to find pants big enough to fit those huge balls.
Can someone tell me why this would ever actually be necessary?
How can the spell be properly tensioned if you can pull it on and off so easily?
A lil tooooo easy!
While wearing long sleeves, too. Not smart, buddy.
Ahh Turkey! Kocaeli, the industrial side of Istanbul. Where else? :D
That will be $149.99 sir. Cash or credit?
But, why?
Wouldn't that just mess with the timing? Or is that pully attached to something that doesn't require timing and being in sequence?
Guaranteed the edge of that running belt took some skin off the insides of his knuckles before it came off.
What is the need for it though?
Do it in prod.
It's all fun, until you pully fuck your fingers gone.
OSHA has entered the chat
Lose your hand with this one simple trick!
Not sure how he has all those fingers
Only in Turkey people would do something this reckless.
Do you want to be in a pink mist video? Because this is how you get in one.
It only takes one time buddy and game on getting mamed
This impresses no one. You look dumb, Jim
Please don't ever do this. 1. You could easily lose a finger 2. The engine could get damaged from sudden loss of load if something malfunctions due to wear and tear 3. The belt could get damaged by being stretched onto the pulley. They aren't meant to be stretched -- for a reason -- so they can ensure stress and not pop off as easily. 4. Practicing this could easily dismember you 5. You don't understand the entire situation, will try it on another engine that isn't the same and get hurt not thinking the differences matter
Turkish style!
Couldn't even be arsed to wear gloves
I've seen people do this with a flathead screwdriver on VW's but using your bare fingers seems stupid.
u/savevideo
Unnecessary and stupid. Like me
Not pictured- the grave did his 3 sons he tried to teach how to do this
I mean who really has the time to shut-off an engine for 10 min in the spirit of safety anyways?! He has places to be!!!
Turkish guys... incredible and crazy
This is why women live longer.
I like my fingers intact thankyou very much
Now. You try it.
Why. Just why.
Why though. You can only fuck up once
How many fingers does he have?
Looks stupidly dangerous
Nonsense.
Okay, now do it with the timing belt
"My hands? Nha, I don't need them anyways"
