That happens to me all the time, one just gets used to it. The same goes for accidental cuts. If I were to drop the iron though I would get out of its way at emergency warp. I burned my hand with a soldering iron once, it hurt like crazy and left a white blotch.

One time when taking apart can caps, one flew apart suddenly and I got splattered with hot tar. That was considerably worse than getting splattered with molten solder.
