If I'd get a piece of crystal or wood and it would stick half way in my skin, my mom would try to get it out and tell me that if she didn't, it would go into my bloodstream and that it would reach my heart and kill me. I don't know if that's true or not but I ALWAYS take the sharp things out if they're stuck in my skin.
