When I was in the Navy onboard an aircraft carrier at sea, I watched an airman back into the rotating prop of an E2C Hawkeye. It essentially cut him in half. It was freaky, but I have suffered no lasting effects

That happened on my ship in the 80s. Young man was on board the Enterprise only a few days before he died. I watched it unfold from the cctv in the CATCC. Got to watch the prop jobs as well, they’re killers too.
