Hope this doesn't happen to any of you but I thought I had lost my hand when I was cleaning under the hood on my truck. I was wiping everything down after giving the truck a wash job. Due to all the dust under the hood and on the engine, it was getting wiped down also. I had the hood up only about halfway so I could reach the underside of the hood. A gust of wind suddenly slammed the hood down on my right hand which was at the left hood hinge. The hood latched! All the yelling never raised my wifes attention so after about 20 minutes, I used my left hand to lift the corner of the hood ever so slightly and pulled my right hand out, leaving a generous amount of skin behind. Fortunately, nothing was broken but I do have a bruised hand and loss of skin.
