If you fail to use the proper PSE, anything is possible.
When all the expected dangers and any possible "what-ifs" are taken into account, there is very little danger from modern welding processes.
From my personal experience, coupled along with all the safety meetings and gory videos I have watched, using the grinder is hands down more dangerous than any actual welding.

Safe welding practices MUST be used at all times. If strict safety guidelines are observed, the risk is minimal.
