>He amputated a patient's leg in under 2.5 minutes, operating so swiftly that he inadvertently amputated his assistant's fingers and slashed a spectator's coattails.

>On a separate occasion, while performing another leg amputation, Liston accidentally removed a patient's testicles along with the leg
