This is an actual emergency room photo of a fisherman who lost control of
his high-speed bass boat in West Virginia. Wardens 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!!!
