If it falls on your foot, it will sting. But like I said, dropping one on your foot will be very difficult if you follow the rules.

But if your feet are OUTSIDE the rails, like the rules say, then your foot won't get touched. And I would like to see someone pull a knuckle hard enough to make it land outside.
