We guess crossbow manufacturers will have to begin placing warning stickers on their products reading "Attention: Do not stick your thumb in the path of the string while firing." That is, if a southern Illinois man and his merry band of tort lawyers are successful in a lawsuit seeking $600,000 against the maker of Tenpoint Crossbows and retailer Cabela's. Cyril B. Korte shot off his thumb while deer hunting in 2011 and contends the device should have been fitted with a guard to prevent his thumb from slipping. The Record.
He should have stuck his head in there instead of his thumb so we could have kept him from mucking up the gene pool.

Lucky for him he lives in the only state that prohibits carrying handguns or he probably would have accidentally shot himself.
