Strange Injuries...

Time for a new thread for all that's weird in this world...

In the News of the Screws today (somebody in my family reads it, much to my disgust) there's an article on some bloke who's claiming compensation after suffering flashbacks to a company party, where he woke up 'dishevelled and with an agonising pain in the groin' (so far, so normal, I hear you cry).

It turns out he'd been put under by a hypnotist, who made him convinced he was the King of the Fairies. He was told he had a fairy in his hand - "You'll never believe it - I called her Flatulence".

However the real damage was caused by something worse than the fairy incident - it was that mysterious groin strain -

"We were told that our shoes were telephones and to answer them when they rang. Unlike everyone else who took their shoes off, I tried to wrench my foot up to my ear."

Priceless. Truly priceless.

This is the work of an Italian narco-anarchic collective. Don't bother insulting them, they can't read English anyway.

Sadly, doesn't quite qualify for a Darwin Award, though it sounds like he nearly put himself out of the running anyway.
