Each lost at least 4 fingers when the rope snapped?

I'm trying to imagine how it happened and it doesn't make sense.

Crazy.

A very strange accident. I grew up playing tug-o-war through junior high and never saw more than a little burn to someone. It had to be the type of rope but still can't see that happening again, a freak accident.

I liked the video with the little girl boxing with her dad or someone. That was pretty awesome.

It appears they may have had the rope tied around their hands ... usually the rope used is too thick for that.

This is more shocking than the RAF WWII expression "Pull your finger out" ever meant. :eek:
