The time an 8th grader cut his finger off.
Wood or metal shop?
History class.
Going to need some more details
Well, we were in history class and the teacher was talking about the revolutionary war. The teacher asked if anyone knew what types of guns the colonists used. Thats when the overachieving kid, stuck his hand in the air, desprate to answer. Well, the room had an old beaten up metal ceiling fan. And as he raised his hand more and more, the teacher ignored him. He wanted to hear from someone ELSE for a change. Well, he didn't want to accept that he wasn't going to get called on. So he's raising his hand extra high. He starts almost standing, until the teacher said "Sit down, I KNOW you have the answer." And the fan continued to keep us breezy on that June day.
That's when there was some commotion in the hallway, and the class clown opens the door to play with them. Turns out it was two girls taking their shirts off. So now every 14 year old boy is rushing to press up against the door. Well his pinky was still in the doorway, because he was trying to play with them before EVERYBODY noticed. That's when the door chopped off his finger.
Was this a New York school by any chance? I heard a story just like that before.
Cleveland, in 1998.
Kid was in history class, cut his finger off.
