Yeah, I guess he won't recommend catching it in landing.

yes - hurts watching it and just a little DJI Phantom 2 with actually even some guarding around the blades.
Thats tough.

What a retard move... Seeing that cut on the back side of his arm dripping like that. I can't imagine how the other side would be without him holding pressure on it... Bet he will not do that again...

Probably try to sue the quad company too. Probably will win too. God knows if you can win a law suit for putting hot coffee between your legs, this would be a no brainer for those with no brains.

I don't know - letting the blood drip for so long on camera makes me wonder if maaaaybe it was a fake. Not that if couldn't happen, of course...

Related: I saw a 15 yo kid at our club catch a good sized quad (2' diameter?) I bare hands, so I was a good member and nicely told him it was unsafe. My intervention was a fail because his uncle laid into me verbally for not being supportive of the kid, who had apparently been practicing catching for a while. The uncle was acting way out of proportion so I waked away. Guess what I'll say next time? Nada. Hope he doesn't get hurt!

I catch Airplanes, Small ones, foamy's, and I know AMA doesn't allow it so never at fields but in my yard and stuff, i am careful when i do it. prop is always above my hand.,arm.. I just couldn't see trying to catch anything with 2 spinning props.

I think it was distasteful to have that link posted here.. Just saying it is graphic at the top of the post is not sufficient warning.. If I wanted to see it I would have looked for it.

Just my 2 cents...

There are people reading these forums who knew Roman Pirozek, Jr. If you must be so sick as to post a link to that picture, the very least you could do is properly label it so one of his friends doesn't click it and see that....
