A buddy of mine in Germany told a similar story regarding split rings. In this incident, the soldier did about the same thing. However, the split ring broke and flew across the shop and decapitated him.

Needless to say it ruined EVERYONE'S day in the shop. To say nothing of the dead guy.

Better to be safe than sorry. And I REALLY LIKE the 'lay it on the ground with the split ring facing down AND a locking chuck with at least 10 ft of hose' advice!
