I asked a good friend who works in aviation about 'half hour too hot to touch' question and she cracked up about the wood chipper bit.

In short, she used to (retired now) work on high speed systems, and there was one that used to take half to 3/4 of an hour before it could be touched. That flew at Mach 3 for hours at a time and had massive air friction forces to generate great heat build up.

Now, a wood chipper do this? not a snowballs chance in hell.
