Default Slow down on the Turns! (GRAPHIC picture)

This 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 downed on the side of the road. You can probably picture what happened
next, but the attached picture 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.

talk about getting shoved in the can...omg....honestly tho, i have no clue how the post can just go up that far, you'd have to land on it at a perfect angle in order for it to shove up ur a$$ like that, cause otherwise it'll just break like ur hip bone n u should fall over

Seen this one but that's gotta hurt. We had someone a few years back fall off a ladder and get a piece of iron rod go right into thier sphincter. Luckily it didn't hit any Vital organs. Had to cut the bar low and take him in with the bar there. Guy came out all right in the end.
