Don't you test the fit of wrenches before you torque them?

Here's a bit of folklore that I learned when I started to work on cars.
If you pull toward your torso, your knuckles will hit your torso if the 
wrench slips. If you push away from your torso, you should at least 
check whether your knuckles will hit something hard prior to your arm 
becoming fully extended.
