Happened really fast. It bound up twice, and before I could react it exploded.

Damn glad I have a healthy fear of cutoff wheels. I always use the proper guard and I recently bought a 3M face shield specifically in case of this..

I seem to have gotten away unscathed, except for my nerves of course.
