Although I agree that it is a risk, if you are careful and make sure to take off what ring you have at the time of injury before it swelling then it'd be alright. I really like certain metals and gemstones and titanium happens to be my favorite metal so I'm definately going to get a titanium one. Glad I watched this to keep this in mind though.
*Actually gets crushed and deforms into a death grip on your finger, cutting off circulation until you're purple and becoming even more insanely difficult to remove like a boss*
Same way a black belt only “gots” 2 inches your back Jokes aside the odds of something “heavy” falling exactly dead center on the ring and somehow bouncing right off without denting said ring VS. it landing literally anywhere else on your hand and now your hand is swollen you can’t get the ring off and you can barely forcibly remove it via machinery means.. is not one to bet your well-being on
The flip side. Titanium does not hold temperature. If you are a winter activity person with piercings that will probably be exposed to the cold. Go titanium.
The fact that titanium is such a good conductor of heat make it the _worst_ metal to wear in a cold climate. It's literally a heat sink helping to freeze whatever skin it's attached to.
I'm an accountant. The greatest danger my titanium ring poses to me is driving. And it's incredibly easy to take it off and store it somewhere in the car when I'm driving. As for doing manual labor while wearing a wedding band, my father is a farmer. He doesn't wear jewelry on the job. More often than not, it just gets in the way and would be hidden by gloves. The only accessory he ever wears while working is a wristwatch. Knowing what time it is at a moment's notice is very useful for him. If your ring is a concern of yours on the job, every pair of jeans I've ever owned has a watch pocket. You can take it off and stow it there when you're doing work where your ring might become a risk. When you're not working, it's easy enough to reach in and get it out. It won't get pulled out of your pocket by digging out your phone or wallet. Don't have a watch pocket? Then it's up to you to decide which risk is worth willing to take. Do you risk losing your ring? Or do you risk further injury to your finger on the off chance you have an accident. It's up to every individual to decide for themselves.

It could also protect your finger or whole hand when something heavy drops on the ring

Not tungsten carbide.

I understand that married firemen wore their wedding rings on a neck chain for this very reason.

@@joshuaewalker i think she is talking about heat specificity not conductivity.
If I'm doing any kind of physical work, like moving heavy things, or working in the yard, I remove my rings and possibly my watch.
Basic safety. Safety is number one priority.
Good advice, thank you.
Just bought my brother a set of titanium cuff links. Forget the ring. :)
Anybody else looking at their fingers to see if one is missing?

Would this go for steel too?
Stainless steel has an average of +30% elongation so im sure its the same
Why all the dislikes? This is just pure educational.
Maybe fake accounts from the sellers of these rings
Dude please. Get it a little more bigger.. Stainless steel is hard also
I have a huge collection of rings and the only one I wear is a stainless steel one I got on eBay years ago for $0.99.
Not sure what's with all the downvotes, the doctor's logic makes sense.....
I don't understand that, either. These two gentlemen are helping us.
Hey man, I see you have more dislikes than likes, try not to care about it and thank you for making this video.
Thanks!
This can not be said enough!
