When things go awry, there's a LOT more mass/energy involved.

RNLA said:Here, hold my beer an' I'll show ya how to run this thang. Funny, I have said that before! Not really but I do believe there are many very dangerous tools out there, with proper instruction you can operate with minimal destruction... Take the gas powered, two man, post hole digger for example that is a good one. Just try it! You and your buddies will have great fun in rocky soil... Warning SOME BEER REQUIRED.
