And you thought you were having a bad day...

Around Christmas may people find themselves alone and depressed. This thread is just to remind those people that others have been worse off.

Does that last pic have a story? Holy shit...

Not really. Car accident, one of those treated pine railings you see around parks and "path of least resistance"

I think this thread should come with a warning label. Yikes.

Did any of them survive? :?

 

[Harvrath]

I would be very surprised if the first x-ray was someone who lived.

Second one, paralyzed?

Third one, people have survived stuff like that before.

The fellow with the giant screw going through his head did indeed survive. I read the news story a week or two ago, I believe. It went through his eye socket and in surgery they just kind of... unscrewed it right back out again.

Put me right off my hotdog! :lol:

 

[Sevrin]

More fun with X-rays!

I'll pass the salt when I'm good and ready, kk?

Good thing I can listen to my toons while I wait.

No sympathy for those last two, only way that happens is when you put it there on purpose.

Also, knowing other people have it bad just makes me feel worse for some reason. Not because I feel bad about feeling bad, but I then feel bad for them, and feel bad for myself. It's why I don't watch the news, and spend most of my time ignoring the rest of the world.

First two were fine. Brains are just weird.

No idea with the third guy. No practical reason why he shouldn't have but his pelvis and lower spine would have been damaged.

I remember a nurse friend saying kids are always turning up in emergency with handlebars having gone up their bottoms. Other insertions not usually that dramatic.

No, seriously. I slipped and fell. It was just bad luck that it ended up where it did. :lol:

I recall when this first started circulating the net a few years ago. If I recall correctly, the individual was involved in a motorcycle accident.
Having grown up riding motorcycles myself, It was a pretty jarring image at the time.

I think this might be a place for a PSA from The Wet Spots.

How sweet is that, got to Miss Luna's post, and thought, yep couldn't have said it better, down to wearing blinders most of the time it save seeing the world's crap. Then came to Tasha's post, and yes it makes perfect sense to me. Sweet being in such good company. (and yes I see both the paradox, and irony in finding this thread positive.)
