OUCH how bad can a splinter hurt ?
Makes you think twice about speed on the water!!!!
Now This Is A Splinter!
Read the story on this before you think much about it.
* DON'T DRIVE THAT
FISHING BOAT TOO FAST!
* So you thought YOU had
a bad day at the office !
* OK, all you medics... Top this one!
This is an actual emergency room photo of a fisherman
who lost control of his High Speed Bass Boat in West Virginia.
The warden's believe that he was traveling at a speed of approximately
75 mph at the time of the accident.
He was unable to negotiate a curve in the narrow waterway and
unfortunately for him, upon striking the shoreline, he was ejected from the
boat and landed on an old fence post.
You can probably picture what happened next,
but this photograph really says it all.
The good news is after about 6 months,
this man made a full recovery after
suffering a shattered hip, broken leg,
several broken ribs, internal injuries and soft tissue damage.
The doctors credited his recovery to the fact that the post
lodged itself so tightly that there was little or no blood loss.
Now, that's got to hurt!
