British Man Injured After Lighting Firecracker in Buttocks

Thursday, November 09, 2006



LONDON — A 22-year-old man suffered internal injuries after lighting a small firecracker he had inserted into his buttocks, paramedics said Thursday.

The incident took place Sunday, when Britain celebrated Bonfire Night, traditionally marked with fireworks to celebrate the Guy Fawkes' gunpowder plot to blow up Parliament in the 17th century.

The man suffered burns and other unspecified internal injuries in the incident in Sunderland, 275 miles north of London.

Katherine Shenton, a spokeswoman for the North East Ambulance Service, said a caller had phoned in that the victim was bleeding after the firecracker exploded.

Several of the man's friends recorded the incident on a mobile phone. The blurry images show a man bent over with his pants down and a white flash as the firecracker explodes.

The Times newspaper reported the man is a soldier who recently returned from Iraq.

5. How do you insert something into your buttocks?

I want charts, graphs.

6. Like pooping, but in reverse.

7. Well, butt-HOLE I can understand. But butt-OCKS are just simple

cheeks, without openings. That's what I learned in biology, anyway.

8. There are two cheeks

They are pressed together, the firecrackers are held in by the pressure between the two.

9. No, you're right, of course.

It just seems a strange phrasing. I understand from the other news story that was posted that he wasn't just holding it delicately between his butt cheeks: the fool jammed it right up his ass and lit it.

10. I guess the fox news doesn't want to use the word butt hole in a headline.

11. Fascist enablers and now wimps. What depths won't they stoop to?

12. Now that's what I call Ring Sting !!!!!!!!!!!!!

13. oh damn another Iraq occupation vet.

damn it all anyways, why isn't there enough mental health care available to help these people get over the crap they saw/did/heard of in Iraq?

14. I am in agreement

There needs to be some realisation amongst the military establishment that you can't program someone into a killing machine and then return them to civilian life without being thoroughly de-programmed and given lots of support.
