Chris@Onza rider Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 My mates went into his leg and just missed his artery. Paramedics said if I had not had phoned them so quick he may have lost his leg. Probably a load of rubish just to make me feel special..............Owell it worked.

Tomm ← My brother was wall-riding over the funbox at Newport, lost the front, and fell from the wallride down onto his bike (he landed it to flat, so it was a drop of about 8-10ft), and landed leg-first on his bars, and completely shattered his main femoral artery. They couldn't find a pulse in his right leg, and it "hurt 20" to quote him. He eventually persuaded the Newport people to take him to hospital, so they took him instead of calling for an ambulance, and he went straight into surgery. He had to have two operations, 'cos they sorted the shattered part, but as a self-preservation thing the lower part of the artery spazzed out and that had to be re-routed too. Overall; 11 hours of surgery, 10 pints of blood. Nice :ermm: If he'd not had bar-plugs in and it had broken the skin, he'd have bled to death in under 2 minutes or something like that. Hence, I run bar-plugs :( Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Urpedigreechumdog Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 When i was a dirt jumping loser, i did an x-up over a hipper and didn't pull the bars back round, they went striaght into my left thigh, i had weird shitty small bar ends, they didn't break the skin. Had to be carried home :ermm: And then driven to hospital, couldn't walk for a couple of days :( No surgery needed, just a knee-to-nob bruise, no joke.
