Unfinished edges on CT, this and other incidents could portend a major Fed recall.. Any suggestions for quick fixes??

Be careful when closing your cybertruck door!

I parked on an incline, exited the truck and as I was closing the door I manage to clip the very corner of the door against my leg. When I got home the wife said I needed to go get stitches, so I did.

I’m clumsy, so this is 100% my fault lol

I still love the truck!

Holy Crap, that's gnarly. Don't take this wrong, dude but it kinda looks like a vagine on your leg

Perhaps a sheet of sandpaper wrapped on a small block of wood can smooth a small bur on that spot

I think I had my leg too close to the truck as I closed the door. The corner of the door managed to hit leg perfectly…

Looks almost surgical. Good healing..

This thread has reported 2 injuries already. Tesla or 3rd parties need to brainstorm a fix for the sharps problem, or hate to think of the recall... Does PPF wrap blunt or eliminate the problem?

I think what exacerbates this issue is that door is kinda heavy too so even if it's moving at the same rate as any other door, it's bound to do more damage.

As someone qualified to comment on this particular topic, suture work looks good. Make sure they don’t remove the sutures for at least 15-20 days. Legs take longer to heal than the rest of the body. I promise you will be happy if you leave them as long as possible. (But not more than 3 weeks)
Also, it definitely needed sutures. You went well beyond the dermis, meaning potential for very serious complications and scarring

We all knew the CT was a SS Swiss Army Knife Of Transport (SAKOT), but this takes the cake. Thank goodness it was never designed to be a 'Box Cutter'
Something to cheer you Up!

Nice fix. If you do that enough times, the door will dull so much it'll eventually cause no harm.

Would love to see the video.

The video of the wound opening, or the suturing?

Video from the truck. I guess not such a good viewing angle.
