Knife sculptor doing aerobics falls on nearby knife sculpture

Play with fire, get burned. Play with knives, get 25 stitches and surgery to fix a little finger that no longer works.

While we’re happy that Jan Hakon Erichsen, a Norwegian artist who specializes in making cool shit with knives, is relatively okay, we can’t help but wonder how he neglected to move his gigantic wall of razor-sharp blades from the area where he was filming a “furniture aerobics video.”

“So it turns out I’m an idiot,” he wrote on Twitter last night. “Yesterday I was making one of my furniture aerobics videos and I was balancing on something sketchy. Needless to say I fell, and I fell onto my knife sculpture (second pic) because I’m an idiot who leaves life threatening items standing around.”

Take a look at that “second pic” below and shudder when you realize the screaming that you hear is your own.

“It just looks really menacing and I thought it looked cool standing in my window sill so I left it standing there,” he told BuzzFeed News. “When people come to my studio, they all comment that it is a nice piece. I didn’t think about how when I was balancing I could fall into it, which was really, really stupid.”
