I can't believe the idiots standing so close. I'd be running the other way as fast as I could. When parts start flying at the kind of RPM's that thing is hitting they are going to go through anything.

That is what the YouTube comments were saying, but we all know how reliable those are.

If it came apart, it would likely have blown up parallel to the fence, so if you are gonna stand close to it, in front or behind would be better than the side.
