READ THEN ROLL DOWN TO SEE IT
This rather shocking photo was snapped in November 16th by a spectator at
the collegiate power lifting championships at Pennslavania State.
>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"
