I have never heard the term "blood bubble" but your right, being aware of ones surrounding is always important in a multitude of situations. Thanks for sharing
I worked with Boy Scouts for a few years, and we started calling it the safety circle instead of the blood bubble because it made me nervous to see boys swinging their pocketknives around to see if anyone was in range. I used to have to tell them to estimate the length of their arm and the tool rather than hold it out and spin around in a circle. The term 'blood bubble' must have conjured a weird image in their minds because it always seemed !ike they were trying to catch their friends in their blood bubbles. So when we switched to 'safety circle' we had a lot fewer problems with that. I think it reminders them to look around and be safe instead of trying to make their buddies bleed.
Safe working distance. Thanks for the nice vid.
It's good that you posted this. Time to remember is always at hand. I was taught this as simply "the zone of safety".......when I was a young Cub Scout. And that was indeed a while back as I'm 66 now. Still great advice. I saw one young fellow when I was a bit older, a Boy Scout, take a hatchet to the face when he walked up behind a kneeling fellow, looked over his shoulder, and POW the hatchet came up and nailed him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DANGER ZOOOOONE!!!
Sorry, couldn't help it
good and simple! Thanks for sharing. cheers
When I was 12 I got smacked in the face with a friend using a shovel as a hatchet against a bush. Got too close right behind him and he sent that shovel head into my eyebrow, causing me to get a couple stitches. Never heard of 'blood bubble' before but glad you've talked about it! Will save someone at least a trip to the emergency room!
Safety first! Thanks guys!
Good reminders. Thanks!
Be aware of your surroundings! Nice reminder!
I've done that same thing for years, but never heard it called the blood bubble. Haha. Sounds like a kind of bubble gum you'd get during Halloween. Nice video guys.
Good tip for awareness.
Great safety tip!
good video Krik
10/10 good advice ...almost had someone split my head open with a maul while I was working with a stump on the ground and they didn't announce they were going to start swinging it
Good subject!
I know my dad always taught me when using an axe, beyond just the people near me, to make a note of a mental "cross" centered on myself. The long arms of the cross are the path that an axe head that came loose mid-swing or an axe that slipped my grip would fly. The short arms of the cross are to the sides, where the pieces of what I'm chopping are most likely to fly. Always try and adjust your position so that no one is in that cross.
Always heard it called the blood circle, but good video. I'm going to show it to my Boy Scouts. Thanks for all your work.
Safety is always my first priority then the rest .
Worth knowing. Atb.
Down here in the south we call it a Blood Circle.
I dig acronyms and snazzy terms...
Thanks for the tip Brian 76
Yes agreed great video again! I check my surroundings every time because I'm worried about chinning someone with an axe!
krik I still want that ax cover I'll get back to you on that brother
I have no idea why this video has any thumbs down???
Trolls, confused people in Australia?
Who knows?....I'm guessing a holes....
And I thought it was about decompression sickness (jk)
Good simple easy to remember advice,
Same reason you always clear a firearm even if you know its unloaded from earlier and you where the last one to touch it.
I always called it a pick and the other side an adze
Please participate in Movember this year. :)

Black Owl Outdoors Movember is a "Moustache November", that means you start growing facial hair this month!
It isn't sharp? Every mattock I ever used was as sharp as we could make them. I still have a nasty scar on the middle finger of my right hand to prove it. We had a fellow in the lumber camp whose sole job was keeping tools sharp, and the mattock was no exception. We kept them touch up in the field, but he made sure they were sharp as a knife when we took them out each morning.
I guess it may depend on what you're using the mattock for, but we needed ours to be sharp enough to slice through some pretty thick roots, and being sharp made it a lot easier.
safety is no accident... 😉
I like to use same technique only full circle.Or if you're just clumsy with hand tools or prone to hurting yourself in general I don't stand near you!
lol i think we all have at least 1 friend like that
People should be no closer than twice the distance of your swing. Hurts your hands when you hit a rock? Have you spend a long day turning big rocks into small rocks with a heavy sledge? It hurts your hands, all right.
As for the blood bubble, I've also heard it called the safety zone, the kill zone, and even the idiot zone, plus a couple of more vulgar terms.
0r, Common Sense in other words.
lol,agreed
Common sense, tends to not be so common, who knew?
A side effect of a shallow instant gratification society? Maybe...
How do you confuse an idiot? put two shovels in a corner and tell them to take their pick.
so you just made up new name for "danger zone"?
why turtles? am i hearing it wrongly? turtles??
zombie kill tool
Funny, this is all basic common sense.... now, i COMPLETELY understand why you felt the need to post this...... MOST PEOPLE are idiots and don't think about safety and or face never been taught safety...
