Chef Dаnielle wаs demоnstrаting his knife skills during a class at Chaffey Cоllege. One оf her best skills was the “Daniel Cut‘n Flip,” a new technique he developed whereby a chef can cut a food item and simultaneously flip it into a bowl. This technique is complicated and hard to understand merely by observing it. While demonstrating this technique, Chef Danielle spoke constantly, explaining with precision every step of her technique while the students watched with great interest and took detailed notes (as all good students do). One of their statements was that “If you twist your wrist in this way, the technique can be quite dangerous. This is because the food items fly uncontrollably with great force.” As they demonstrated this potential problem, a piece of carrot flew off the flashing blade and hit a student in the eye, causing a painful injury. The student sued Danielle. The student's lawyer called a classmate to testify to Chef Daniel's statements during trial.
