EE was holding on to the cable for support and was using his foot to get the screen unstuck. When the screen swung around snag the cable pulled his thumb into pulley and I think he yanked his hand out leaving the tip of his thumb to the first joint in the pulley. We backed the cable down, put the thumb on ice and took ee to ER.
