I keep seeing this on the front page of Craftisian,

It's nice to see someone doing a bit of hand carving, but shouldn't they be working away from their thumb?

yes good point ! putting flesh in front of a sharp tool is probably not wise ?

Yeah, that does look a little suspect. But hey, it’s just blood…

It's wrong but never never get blood on your woodwork! 
It's even odder to see that same photo in an article titled How Do You Use Carving Chisels Safely and Efficiently?

Yeah but above the article says “Our content is meticulously curated through independent research, testing, reviews, and AI-driven recommendations, all designed to present you with the finest product choices” so it’s all good.
Possibly its just somebody trying to carve out a living !

I also like that one of the safety precautions is:
"Consider investing in thumb guards to keep your hands protected from any accidental slips of the chisel."
