@Pete: My overhead press trick is to do it on the power rack and put the arms up high ... like just below where the bottom of the press is. That way, I can go until failure and if I drop the bar, it doesn't have far to travel (and I can get out of the way). I'll do the same thing for (seated) military presses and for rack walk-outs.
@Bao: But when the seam on a shirtsleeve starts cutting your circulation a little, it may be a sign to change shirts.
