I use to have a buddy that lost his #1 and #2 right hand fingers to a V Dub belt setup. They cut out the bases of the missing fingers in his palm, and he had this lobster claw looking thing--it was real functional---just looked like an alien hand.
It was done on a bet, everyone knows a bet is worth getting maimed for life over. You mean these scars, and missing fingers? Well yeah....I lost a bet.
