The accident happened last year but Jason only released the pictures yesterday to raise funds for the Great North Air Ambulance, saying the service saved his life.

Good man.

Well there have been pictures of mutilated animals on this forum, so I imagine so.

Besides, it's not exactly disturbing. People, I feel, have become soft to seeing these things. Myself included in that, I will add. Peace/Abundance has weakened our spirits.

As for the picture, my 6 year old brother sees more horrific injuries on TV... he actually loves watching all those A&E style programs

Platinum87 would have eaten the pole, and crapped out a hunting spear to use in his pre-meditated brutal murders of people who say things about his family.

Now im not one to go out of my way to look at gore and neither do i like it but i cant see whats wrong with that picture? :confused:

Its not like there is chunks of flesh everywhere and blood being pumped out of an Artery.
Its just a guy with a poll in front of him which you cant really even tell its gone through him.

You could slice the contents of the Pole up & have Burgers.

Sonea Fifer · 17 Nov 2009 at 07:16

Now thats going to leave a scar :eek:

He had to have one rib removed and another two bound together

Hmm, that could come in useful...

platypus · 17 Nov 2009 at 09:44

Very lucky that it missed his lung, and lets face it - it's not far away from his heart.

What an escape.
