That’s Gotta Hurt

A man is recuperating in the hospital after spearing himself in the groin with a speargun in Australia yesterday. Yeouch.

Greg Robertson, 25, was pushed onto the speargun after it got washed out of his hands by a wave. The 6 foot long spear pierced his inside upper thigh, just millimetres from his genitals (note girlfriend’s expression in 2nd pic) and femoral artery, and got lodged there.

The first time spear fisherman had been enjoying a day at the beach with his girlfriend Jacinta Fisher and some of their friends when the accident happened.

A chopper came to rescue Robertson. The spear was surgically removed that night. Hopefully, the dude (and his girlfriend) will make a full recovery.
