A 3 ½" Drill pipe was being run in hole for clean out. Once the Drill pipe single was at the V-door, a drift was dropped inside the pipe. The Drill pipe single was then picked up to the rig floor and the IP proceeded to open the drill pipe protector at rig floor to remove the drift from the pipe. Before opening the protector, the IP inserted his right hand middle finger through the protector hole to check if the drift was resting on the protector. At this time the stuck drift (3kgs) inside the pipe dropped down, trapping the IP's finger against the protector •
