A vulnerable man cut off his own head with a chainsaw after being ordered to move out of his home to make way for developers, police believe.
David Phyalls severed head was found beside the power tool inside his housing association flat shortly after receiving his eviction notice.
Detectives were today investigating the possibility that the 58-year-old killed himself rather than leave his home of eight years.

This chainsaw was the only Remington the Brits will let a citizen own.

Moving is one of the recognized major stressors. Being forced to move has got to be even worse.

The second worst pain was when tx_eggman and I were hunting in N. Oregon, and I dropped trou and squatted to do what a bear does in the woods... and my testicles tickled a fox trap that had been hidden there in the leaves... And this is second worst? What did you do for an encore? Pour gas on your juevos and set them on fire?

My grandmother had lived in her particular house in Albuquerque for close to 30 years, but as she approached 90 and the fact that her neighborhood was becoming gangland (and she had been robbed), my aunt and uncle were quite concerned about her and as it appeared she was in early/intermediate stage of Alzheimer’s, they moved her (stridently against her wishes) into a senior home and she went downhill quite rapidly afterwards and died a few years later.

---Im wondering if he maybe placed it on a table while it was running, leaned over and let gravity do the rest. Although gross --- I wondered the same thing?

I used a chainsaw on an elk once, long story, but it was a lot harder to cut through the meat than you think. I thought it would be easy, but in fact I could go much faster with a regular saw and knife. The blade gets filled with meat and it just stops cutting after the first inch or so, in real life it doesn’t work like the movies at all.

Was your elk skinned?

Nope, I needed it to be quartered to get it out of the woods. I swear when it was all done and said I could have used a sharp knife faster. though. I thought it would just go through like butter, but it kind of bounced off of the meat, and you really had to fight to get it to go through. I cut wood all the time, I could have cut a 24” tree 10 times over in the same amount of time to get through one leg of the thing.

Not the time to lose one's head.
No.
That's not the way to get ahead in life.
No.
It's a shame he wasn't more headstrong.
Hmm.
He'll never be the head of a major corporation.
Okay, that'll do.
Okay.

So you squatted bare bottomed on a fox trap, it could have happened to anyone, I'm sure......really.
So nutless, how are you doing these days.:)
