He's not brave; he's knowledgeable about tools. Been using a forstner bit in hand drills for 45 years. Not once did I have it grab or twist on my wrist.

Union Carpenter since october 16 1977 ! And a forstner bit is not the correct application for the task being discussed.
The forstner bit in pics above is better used in a drill press and is designed for a flat bottom hole like what is needed for euro type door hinges.
As a Carpentry instructor you would know this to be true.
