What do you know today that you didn't know yesterday?

[Anomalocaris]

The chainsaw was originally created as, of all things, a surgical instrument. It was used in everything from amuptations to childbirth and was shockingly successful.





And, apparently, it even has roots going from before Heine, with the first actual example being made 40 years before Heine, with the original idea coming in 1782.

As someone who has had babies, I would like to say I am thankful that method quit being used.  Pretty sure that would have been replaced the mid-forceps delivery I had with my first....which would now have been a C-section.  


Yeegads!

Is the woman expected to survive?

Not that the visage of a chain saw could ever call to mind the word “precision”, but a hand cranked chain saw would seem to provide much room for taking the meaning of the word “sloppy” to a new level.   To apply it her pelvic bone might suggest the woman is not long for this world.
