OUCH! Motorcycle Accident
OUCH! Motorcycle Accident
Below is an actual emergency room photo of a gentleman who lost
control of his motorcycle on a country road in West Virginia. Troopers 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 road.
Unfortunately for him, upon striking the ditch and being ejected from the bike, he landed back end first on a fencepost from an old barnyard fence that was owned on the side of the road.
You can probably picture what happened next, but the attached picture
really says it all. This picture was obviously removed from the trooper's
files without permission. 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.

Yep, I'm this bored right now. Kicking up old threads.
Turns out this may not be 100% true. According to snopes, it's more likely that this happened to the guy when he lost control of his truck. Not his bike. Though it still hasn't been completly verified.
