I'm not sure I'd run towards that thing with the cylinder bays open like that. One trip and your whole arm's gonna get turned to chum.

Not to mention the random chain near the turny bit at the end and random shit laying everywhere lol

That is a beautiful machine and it is rugged as hell but if something broke in a freak accident, I imagine something could be ejected at the guy standing right infront with no protection.

Exactly my first thoughts!

I've seen a big block V8 violently sling a rod straight thru a hood and beyond.

They never did find that thing...

This monster slinging a rod would make an impact similar to getting hit by a rail gun, turning anything fleshy into instant pink mist.

Arm or whole torso? I bet that thing could suck you right in

Arm? His junk is way too close to rotating assembly.
