I'm a deep cave miner, hard rock when I was setting up an explosive charge an accident occurred I ran and grabbed my new fry pan when the explosion occurred. 26 sticks of dynamite went off but luckily for me I had my hard rock fry pan used it to Shield flying debris. After two days of digging myself out my trusty fry pan and I were free. I thank the fry pan for saving my life it has been one year now and many steaks and eggs later I would not buy another pan.
