If you find yourself in a position that you need to glue yourself back together, don't go squirting it deep in the wound..... You are only trying to close the skin layer, it can cause issues particularly if used deeper than that... There are other versions of the glue that are better suited for this application although they can be significantly more expensive, vetbond is a reasonably priced option (its not certified for humans, but we are all animals) It also contains a dye so you can see where it is applied... If you wanted to control serious bleeding without actually applying an adhesive directly on the wound then you could apply the adhesive around the area and apply a section of plastic sheet pulled over the area in such a way as to pull the wound closed and also create a seal to prevent blood loss...

Point is there is risk involved, but clearly bleeding to death is a serious risk in such situations.... I would rather live and let the experts deal with any potential secondary issues that may arise from such emergency measures....

“Accidental Discharges” DO NOT OCCUR !!

An "Unintended Discharge" is nothing more than the lack of appropriate safety procedures or the failure to follow them..!

I love my country, but fear my government.

That's the way ya do it. Pinch the skin up not into the wound itself. :thumbsup:
