This is an actual emergency room photo of a fisherman who lost
control of his high-speed bass boat in West Virginia. Warden's believe that he
was traveling at a speed of approximately 75 mph at the time of the accident.

He was unable to negotiate a curve in the narrow waterway. Unfortunately
for him, upon striking the shoreline and being eje! cted from the boat, he
landed back end first on an old fence post. You can probably picture what
happened next, but the attached picture really says it all. The good news is
that after about 6 months,this man made a full recovery after suffering
a shattered hip, broken leg, several broken ribs, internal injuries and
soft tissue damage. Doctors credited his recovery to the fact that the post
lodged itself so tightly that there was little or no blood loss.
Now that's got to hurt!!!
DON'T DRIVE THAT FISHING BOAT TO FAST!!!!!
