"BTW, anyone who thinks they can "just walk out" has never tried to walk through 6-7 foot tall corn stalks. Those leaves will rip and tear anything that isn't strong cotton or canvas... Skin included!"

That simply isn't true. We grow hundreds of acres of corn every year on our farm, and walk through it in shorts and tank tops. My skin has never been ripped and torn while doing so.

I’ve never gotten cut or scratched by corn.

I’ve gotten whacked pretty good in the forehead by running into a dry ear of field corn hanging out from a row.

I never even got a scratch and we’re talking little tiny kid skin, back in the day.
