I was expecting the dummy to turn out to be cake...
Pizza0Style0Burrito
The chaps are more comfortable... and easier to get on and off. ?
Anfalicious
Barely touched the leg, leg barely touched, what a surprise!
Xerxes8169
Per the manufacturer do these pants also protect against zombie bites
TacoooMac
This really grinds my gears
Meritez
Could you imagine destroying your pants and saw with just one go!
TheFastpaws
Better a scrape than your whole leg.
CaptainCloud
No one tell the evil dead!
CornCobMcGee
Why does that one tag have more than one post?
PuppiesAndSelfLoathing
Why don't they make the whole plane out of these pants?
Manieman
There's a vid of a dude doing it to his own leg should be on YouTube
DosCervezas
I have these! Cost $50 to save your leg! Extremely worth it! My wife's boss didn't, and almost amputated a limb.
Zincee
You'll still have a bad day, just infinitely better than it would otherwise be.
Davidnfilms
My dad once cut through his pants with the chainsaw, I thought he was wearing sweats, but it was shredded denim jeans.

Kiss my ass, Leatherface
Armyguy8382
Now use a ballistic gel dummy. Or a watermelon
dirrrtypiratehookerrr
At events, they use a sack of ketchup to scare the idiots who don't like to put on chaps in the first place.

Looks like something this guy needs https://i.redd.it/vui0pd071pkz.jpg

“It didn’t protect the leg 100%. It’s a failure! Why bother? It’s basically a hoax! I’m gonna stop other people from wearing these!”

BroFlyDriver
Now do it with jeans...my neighbor says his jeans will do the same thing. Thinking I need to have my phone ready when he's chainsawing.
FirstThingThatCameToMind
probably ruins the chainsaw, but a new chainsaw is cheaper than a new leg.
Sporkeldee
Doesn’t ruin it, but you do have to remove the blade and chain to clean.
malicart
Just takes a while to clean out depending on how much you get in there, not ruined at all.
clotholiver
My dad could have used a pair of those back in the day! He’s got a trio of nasty scars above the knee where a chainsaw hit his thigh.
truthsmiles
Why didn’t he stop after the first cut though?
Haha I asked him the same thing
Volpe42
Chaps, they are called Chaps. Designed to shred into strings that get pulled into the chainsaw choking it off.
XeononSolomon
I bought my father a pair a few years back. Had to replace them after a similar incident one winter.
Raenon
Better to replace pants than limbs.
lilbrother
Sounds like money well spent!
OverByThere
Where can you get them?
anotherIngloriousHandle
need testing on live conscious human, maybe the manufacturer rep or salesman
JLB36602
I'd like to see a video where the chainsaw itself (not just the spinning chain) is moving a little faster rather than this gentle lean-into.
also longer blade so it has PLENTY of motion before it clogs
MrsUnderstoop
It cut his dick off.
NapoleonDynOmite
I was hoping I didn't have to see the dummies dick
ToasterDent
I was afraid it would be dummy thicc
You didn’t!
wobblecopterrrr
Hey, I have some of these! They are hot as ballz, but it’s worth the peace of mind.
majorcovert
That's why I like the chaps. At least I can get some airflow
JoschiGray
Never would have worked a second without them and my shoes. Luckily we mostly worked in the winter.
Spaceman292
Man up and just wear some hot boy short shorts
putcleverusernamehere
Same. After years of good luck decided it was time
ManByTechnicality
Difference between you driving yourself to the ER, and a medevac.
anitabieror6
that was gonna be my question to anyone who'd worn them. +1
orbitn
hang your balls outside for easy cooling
picklebusiness
And possibly your balls

johnwilliamsistheman
They’ve saved my leg before
colt64
Watched a guy on my crew drop his running saw onto his thigh. Had chaps. Not a scratch. Easily could've died that day without.
Family friend died like that when I was a kid, never use it without a shittonne of protecting..
Same. Even the uppers on my boots are lined with the same Kevlar threads. Knock on wood I haven’t needed them yet.
iamawaffleiron
No, you're supposed to use the chainsaw on wood. Silly lumberjacks. No wonder you haven't needed them. ?
nibler35
How much do they cost ????
TyGuy18
You can get chaps for around 100 but the more expensive ones have air vents and are wicked comfy in the right temperature
It varies pretty dramatically, mine were about $450, but you can get some chaps for less than $100
Commentofthedayaward
Less than an arm and a leg

ManimalMike
tossacointoyourwitchers
Djchoragos
you need the chaps, my dude. Nothing says sexy safety like wearing bright orange assless chaps and no pants
zFUBARz
And leave my ass unprotected from violent horny chainsaws? No thank you
Up a tree none the less. People look up and say wow what a lovely moon.
OutlawGerman
.....while cutting down trees. I feel like this is a gay Canadian calendar already.. if not.. holy shit will we make money gents.
Foodstamp001
It's not gay if it involves lumber, maple syrup, hockey, or a sugar shack.
GreatWhiteNorthEh
Call it the "Lumber Jacking It" calendar.
AlexisActually
OrkenMork
Yow! That looks like it hurt!
8gigsofshark
Better a lil chunk taken out of the leg than the whole leg taken off
Mithi
But it will bleed a little less than a teared femoral artery.
Leoncroi
He'll walk it off.
MajikMessiah
Yeah, that mannequin needs a raise.
jdr767
Muuuch better than the alternative!
Tanhis
Well I can tell you it hurts more when you do not have these pants. I nicked my knee ~10years ago and still have a 1½inc reminder of it.
imgurmage
I'll take a scrape and having to buy new pants instead of losing my leg any day.
nannerman7878
Gonna need more than new pants you’re going to need to get some new underwear
MCNewYorkLives
Not if you got brown underwear
Fasrill
Pretty sure if I was involved in a chainsaw accident I'd be pooping blood.
So imagine if they were wearing just jeans and it went right in.
GeekyLogger
They still do go through. Just turns it from a "OH FUCK!" cut to a "oh fuck!" cut
Tr1gg3rH4ppy
My dad did this twice before he started wearing chaps. He was a lumberjack. Also died at work so I guess he wasn't the model of safety
Even when you're being safe, logging is still very dangerous work.
Lovethesmelloftoastedsourdoughbread
To the bone, ugh.
HawaiianWithExtraPineapples
Through the bone, ugh.
To the twilight zone, ugh.
Bed bath and *BEYOND*!
littledude909
When the chainsaw hits the bone... ugh.
waddyaknowjoe
Did the blade stop because it got tangled with the white threads or could it keep running?
Superfloofthundercat
Are you serious?
ScrapCode
it tangles everything up here's what the insides look like when it happens v
Pentjotal
Yep, but you will probably drop the clutch while throwing the chainsaw away from the pain
Exyr
Probably the way the pants are designed to tangle up and engage the clutch
The design of these chaps are to do exactly that. Shred into strings that get pulled into the chainsaw choking it off.
hardytardigrade
Sounds like a good thing to have these shreds in place of pocket sand in case you get in a chainsaw fight.
grizzy86
Except if it is a battery chainsaw, only works on ICE chainsaws
They will stop any chainsaw, does not matter.
crosseyedmary
Why won't it work with battery? If it jams up the chain at the brake then it shouldn't matter what is driving the mechanism
servingmytimeinusersub
Looks like Kevlar.
Idontwantausernameimgur
Apart from Kevlar is yellow, and these are white. They can be made from polyester, Avertic, ballistic nylon or Kevlar.
Katateochi
it is. just not the bullet proof kind.
joepineapplesindrag
I think it tangles them enough so it stalls the motor. Might not work on an electric saw.
evildadunit
physics baby
They've stalled out my electric chainsaw in the past
ChemicalG
It might similar, you can burn out an electric motor if the load is much greater than its torque
An electric motor will stop if there is enough pressure keeping it from running, these will do it. More chance to burn the motor out.
Why not an electric? They aren't as powerful if my understanding is correct.
Zeefox
Electric can’t stall, but usually they’d have a cutoff if the blade was stopped dead
To be pedantic: No blade. Chain on a guide bar driven by a sprocket. Just being geeky though
rbudrick
Many blades?
Technically they're chain mounted chisels. Saying "blade" around a chainsaw is the quickest way to trigger a logger lol
Chisels are a type of blade?
It's like calling a bus a motorbike. Both have wheels but they're not the same, Chain, guide bar, sprocket.
