The first time is the hardest.

Yep. Once the belt is stretched it must get easier.
Funny thing is, though I rebuilt my '64 engine myself and could get
the thing out in about 10 minutes for a clutch change, I don't
remember anything about the generator.
Can't even remember ever changing the belt.
Forgetting that stuff used to bother me.
Doesn't now though. Forgot how to get bothered.

Baloney. He put the same belt back on - it's already stretched.

Never do it with a new one.

Notice the vid is dedicated to the guy that taught him how to do that.
(R.I.P)

Maybe the belt flipped the screwdriver out of his hand and it went
through his heart or throat.

I actually meant that putting the screwdriver under a running belt would
scare the **** out of me, until I'd done it and seen the screw driver
wouldn't get thrown at me like a knife.

Yeah. Since I put away the timing light and dwell meter I don't get
my hands near a running engine. Checking trans fluid and sometimes
touching around with a steth probe is about it.
Even then I check my sleeves first.

I haven't seen a sleeve do it, but I did see a rag get snatched out of
a guys hand on a high speed lathe, come back around and debrided the
back of his hand.

Saw a guy use an allen wrench to take a part out of a centerless
grinder, lost three fingers...
