I would also be too embarrassed to put myself out there on YouTube. Not everyone is comfortable broadcasting such devastating mistakes. I was commending her for it. I saw this video a year ago when she made it FYI.
I would be ashamed to show my arm if I had tattooed a swastika or something equally stupid on it, because that’s a mistake I had the choice not to make. But accidents aren’t mistakes, they’re accidents. Just like I lost a few bits due to circumstances I had no control over. Those are the vagaries of life and they’re nothing to be ashamed of.
I get the distinction between a conscious decision, like getting a swastika tattoo, vs something that was not intentional. She said she lost the finger while making a shelf during home renovations. I’m guessing cutting wood. I very much doubt she intentionally cut her finger off, but odds are that it was a preventable mistake.
Sharing these mistakes with others does make you vulnerable. That said, it also can serve as a teaching opportunity. Sadly, tons of wood workers from the 40s-70s were missing the tip of a finger or two. Whenever someone talks about something like a table saw in a woodworking forum these days they’ll nearly always receive advice regarding safety.
Nobody loses a finger to a power tool by accident. You lose a finger to a power tool because you made a mistake. The root of every accident is someone making a mistake. In fact, in some industries safety training bans the word accident to make it clear. Being maimed by a mistake can be a tough thing to cope with. It’s something I would have trouble being public about. It’s courage and a comfort level with strangers on the Internet that I lack.
Also, ashamed and embarrassed are not synonyms. You’re arguing with a term I did not use. Shame is a way bigger deal than embarrassment.
Calling collisions in traffic “accidents” is just a euphemism. Nearly all of them are completely preventable and were caused by incompetence, negligence, or deliberate belligerence.
Anything of that ilk truly being an accident is a tiny minority of all incidents. Things like a tree falling on your car while you’re driving along, or an undetectable defect in a component causing your wheel to fall off.
Nearly 100% of traffic accidents are driver error. 100% of power tool accidents are user error. If you haven’t realized that car accidents are the fault of drivers, I do not want to be on the road when you are driving.
I’m not sure why you are so avidly white knighting someone I wasn’t even insulting. People screw up, it can be hard to talk about when the cost of a mistake is so high. She’s brave for doing so. This is the last I have to say about it.
Why?

Everybody learns how to drive and passes a driver’s license. So I guess road accidents have all but disappeared now, right?
Because as we all know, training makes people perfect and totally eliminates risks.

Bon ross would like a word.
Bob Ross gets a pass. I feel like that’s just a given.
