Yeeeeeeeeeeeeehaaaaaaaaaw!!!
The Engineer on thrilling robotic prostheses

The Organ Grinder is a taunt performed by an Engineer with the Gunslinger grafted onto his arm. The Engineer pulls a rip-cord from his mechanical prothesis, revving the hand of his Gunslinger up to vicious speeds, after which he thrusts it forward, shredding any enemy player slow, unaware, or simply unfortunate enough to be within reach at the time. The taunt inflicts several 1-damage hits and stuns the victim before inflicting a final blow which deals over 450 damage, instantly killing any class that isn't invulnerable at the time.

Like other Taunts, the Organ Grinder can be performed during Humiliation as a last-ditch effort to defend oneself or to take out an enemy on the winning team barreling into the Spawn Room.

Trivia

  • This taunt, along with the Medic's Spinal Tap, are the only taunt attacks without an accompanying achievement.
  • The spinning robot hand is likely a reference to the 1979 film The Black Hole, where a robot disembowels a human.
  • If an enemy is killed by the hand's spinning they will ragdoll, but if they are killed by the removal of the hand, they will explode.
  • This is the third taunt that has a stun effect before kill.
