It's good first aid practice. Don't remove impaled items in the field.

This!

 

That's real close to an artery. You pull it out and the faucet opens, you die real soon from blood loss. Wrap it up with as sterile as you can get so that the object is immobile and the bleeding stops/slows and rush to the hospital taking care to not budge the object. If that had punctured the vein or artery, and the pressure from the nose was right on a hole in an artery and the only thing keeping it from uncorking, you want to be sitting right next to a surgeon in a full on trauma center when it gets yoinked out. Furthermore, they can xray it and see what the best way to reverse it is, you'd have no idea exactly what's inside of your arm - and pulling it out would be a matter of luck and pluck.

 

Policemen see this with impaled objects like glass from car accidents all too frequently.

fella like to file the gates of his biners into switchblades? can't figure out how in the hell this would happen - sure would be easy to see as a scam...
