Hand in the pocket for the oily rag? Never!!!
When I was an apprentice we all had to sit through health and safety videos. I remember one in particular - it featured a chap called Ernie. They showed this disgusting, bleeding, weeping lump of reddened flesh that turned out to be the remains of poor Ernie's scrotum. He had made a habit of keeping oily rags in his pocket and now had severe dermatitis of the gentleman's jewelery. I don't think any apprentice that attended those sessions ever put an oily rag anywhere near anything sensitive from that day onwards. The other video that explained that long hair and lathes don't make good bed fellows was also quite gruesome.

One sticks in my mind and its the one where they pull a Drott or D8 cat out of a hole with a large diameter wire hawser and one guy stands over it as they take the strain,flicks him ten feet in the air holding the crown jewels.

I don't recall any vids during my apprenticeship (probably too old) but I do remember being shown some very graphic photos of what happened to a chap who sat on a truck wheel with split rim ring while he inflated the tyre. In short the rim ring came off and he was propelled at high speed to the ceiling 20ft above where he made a rather gruesome imprint of his bent and twisted body
 .Glad you're going to sit on things for a while Dave, you know it makes sense D.
