    It’s to be hoped Tangent Jeremy never gets trapped as he doesn’t see the need to carry a knife on his rides

    I’ve never carried a knife on rides. Am I missing out?

    So do you carry a knife in case your arm gets trapped by a boulder when riding?

    Depends. Is there any chance of your arm getting trapped by a falling boulder?
    EDIT: 😕

    I carry a samurai sword in case I meet any Zombies.

    To be honest I think the story is a bit far fetched, if he’d been carrying a bottle jack……

    roundwheels, the knife is supposed to be for self mutilation only. Eating your mate is definately frowned on, even in a survival situation

    Thats commitment to your profession though, isn’t it.

    I mean, method acting is one thing, but asking an actor to cut his arm off as part of the filming, well, its a bit extreme isn’t it – I mean, what if they’d had to do a second take or something? 😯

    No arm done.

    OK, so my take on it. Even if he’d been rescued he’d have lost his arm. Therefore the hacking should have been done on the first day*

    *in theory

    You’re missing the point idave, if he didn’t have a knife no form of hacking could be carried out

    why couldnt it have pissed it down in reality ans flooded that area and that boulder would have dislodged his arm (like he had dreamt it previously…. 😉 life’s neva that easy tho is it 😉

    Usually a bahco laplander in my camelbak… Way faster than your feeble pen-knives, though I reckon bone is probably more like hardwood than soft so it’ll probably make a pretty unprofessional cut.

    When the knife goes in.. i started to feel ill. The thought of him cutting it off makes me awful.

    To the point where i had to turn it off and lay down before i passed out.

    Anyone else get hit hard when they watch anything with gore?

    Something with a big blade to catch the light as you display it…..nice polished up Kukri would get you admiring looks….

    Are you a violent fantasist too now Cynic-al? 😀

    …Anyway I find a hand axe works better! 😈

    (But not a Gransfors, wood absorbs too much blood DNA, you want the Fiskars one with the plastic handle, easier to wipe clean)

    Hand axe for recreational van abduction??!!! Are you mad??? 😡

    Hatchets and such like have their place, but only in combination with a dustbin lid in cases of zombie outbreak.

    I was fine until he had to cut the nerve. That was a proper full body cringe.

    I like to carry a dremel with a selection blades. If you didn’t use up all the battery one trying to grind away at the boulder, it would cut though your arm in a jiffy.

    Yup he had to break the radius and ulna. Good luck cutting bone with a blunt knife.

    Good film though. Had to watch the end on +1 after work..

    Can I mention if he’d been a real man and carried a DE razor, he’d have had that sorted cleanly in a jiffy.

    I used to carry a Leatherman Juice until I snapped it trying to adjust my eccentric BB last ride 🙁

    If you had an eccentric BB and a leatherman, why didn’t you rig the expander wedge bolts into a crude lifting device instead of sawing your arm off. Are you stupid or am i confused.
