A warning now, the photo at the end can be very disturbing to some people. Read on at your own risk.

:yuck:

I don't know if this is real. It's possibly the worst written news story i've ever seen.

 

 

Please Read This Before looking at Image

This rather shocking photo was snapped in November 16th by a spectator at the collegiate power lifting championships at Pennslavania State.

The unfortunate competitor, who expressed a plea to remain anonymous, remembered to surgeons that he was " stuck" at the bottom of a personal best attempt in the squat lift when he "sort of pulled his stomach in and pushed extra hard, at the same time as trying to complete the lift."

He remembers a loud popping, splattering noise then a fierce stabbing

pain and then not being able to move from the squat position.

He remained in this position for about half an hour, since trying to stand

caused him overwhelming agonising pain.

Para-medics arrived and applied anaethesia on the spot and carried him

to an ambulance. He was rushed to surgery, where surgeons described the trauma as an " explosive and aggravated prolapse of the bowel".

Meanwhile it was revealed that the weight was removed from his shoulders at the time of the incident by two "spotters" on either side of the lifter.

The third spotter who was standing behind the lifter was unfortunately

sprayed with fecal matter at the time of the incident.

This spotter promptly fainted when he realised the extent of of the injury to the lifter, who was a personal friend.

This compounded the task of first aid officers who were at a loss as to

how to treat the injury to the lifter in any case, who remained in the

squatting position moaning in pain much to the consternation of the helpless audience.

The hapless lifter had successful surgery to relieve the prolapse, but

remained immobilised with his feet elevated in stirrups for 2 weeks to

ensure "internal compliance with the surgery and that the organs

retracted successfully".

To add insult to injury, the ex-lifter required rectal stitching to partially occlude the anal orifice and stich the rectal passage(which had significantly expanded and torn during the prolapse) and also was

put on a low fibre low residue diet to combat flatulence to avoid any

possibility of a recurrence.

CBS news spoke to his wife and asked if she thought he would resume his

power lifting career.

" Not if I have anything to say about it, would you like to risk something

like that again" We agreed!!
