When marshalling... always keep your eyes on the vehicle and stand behind something solid -

Trees make great vehicle barriers... just make sure you pick something thicker than your leg!

Another way to avoid getting hurt is to always look for your "escape route". Where will you go if and when an object comes towards you ? Practice it over and over in your head (visualize :) )first and when it is needed, you will just do it.

What is your best escape route = diagonal and opposite direction to the object coming at you.

and i'm not normally one to go around correcting comedic remarks, but wasn't it George Carlin that said that... George Orwell wrote 1984

George Carlin said it

but the underlying theories come from George Orwells writings, particulary "Politics and the English Language"
