Don't drive that fishing boat too fast


This is an actual emergency room photo of a fisherman who lost control ofhis High Speed Bass Boat inWest Virginia.

The warden's believe that he was traveling at a speed of approximately75 mph at the time of the accident.

He was unable to negotiate a curve in the narrow waterway and unfortunately for him, upon striking the shoreline, he was ejected from theboat and landed on an old fence post.

You can probably picture what happened next, but this photograph reallysays it all.

The good news is after about 6 months, thi s man made a full recovery aftersuffering a shattered hip, broken leg, several broken ribs, internal injuries and soft tissue damage.
The doctors credited his recovery to the fact thatthe post lodged itself so tightly that there was little or no blood loss.Now, that's got to hurt!
