    Boating accident

    This is an actual emergency room photo of a fisherman who lost
    control of his high-speed bass boat in West
    Virginia. 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. Unfortunately for
    him, upon striking the shoreline and being ejected from the
    boat, he landed back end first on an old fence post.

    You can probably picture what happened next, but the attached
    picture really says it all. The good news is that 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. 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!!!

    The way I was told, this photo is not from a boating accident. It was from a power company employee that was doing a powerline transfer. A pole had broken in a storm and they were tranfering the lines when he fell.
