Are you a prankster or have you been the victim of a prank which backfired? The following case serves as an example: A Chinese student appears to have been the butt of a somewhat strange prank following a nasty incident with a remote control. Nineteen-year-old Huang Chen mystified medics when he turned up drunk at Hunan Hangtian Hospital in Changsha, complaining of unexplained pain from his rear end. While being examined, the tipsy student turned over in bed, and inadvertently changed channel on the ward's telly. Astonishing X-rays later revealed that the teenager had a TV remote control lodged up his backside. Police say it was a part of a prank played by flatmates on Chen when he collapsed after a boozy night out. "We didn't know what it was to start with. There was a little bit of blood but he didn't say anything about a remote control. We couldn't quite believe it when we saw the X-ray," said medic Dr Wei Lung Zhi. "He will be fine in time but the remote was a write off," he added.
Well, may I say what a pleasure it is to have Project Mobius grace this thread.... your really are a legend in your own mind. If you peruse the thread again I think you will find I posed an open ended question and that was followed by 'The following case serves as an example'. At no point did I imply that it was anything other than an example.
the pleasure is all mine, i don't think i'm a legend though. I dont' know why you would think I think that way. I merely pointed out this was old news. At no point did I imply that it was anything other than an old news.
One of my Favorite pranks I have ever done was in college. We filled my RA's apartment with crumbled up new papers. his place was around 500 sq ft and we filled it from floor to ceiling in every room, he was pissed off.
I'm inclined to agree. If you notice, the remote it too far up on the x-ray to be in the patient's rectum. It is also tilted diagonally. If it was lodged in the rectum, it would be straight up and down and would appear in the area of the pelvis.
