I am never ,never going to dive off of anything again. That was shocking!
How could they have tubed him in that mess? And secured it?

Thanks for that site.

I had the video and kept posting it on Facebook, but they kept taking it down. Everyone was asking for a host site where they could view it and save it...good work.

Fairly disturbing video.

Does anybody know if he survived?

Re the tubing

One of my lecturers presented a case study of a job he did that was very similar to this. Attempted shotgun suicide.

Said once he got past the "Oh my god where do I start" thoughts, the management wasn't actually that complicated. He tubed simply by lifting up a flap of skin (which he said may have been his tongue...it was hard to tell). Other than that he kept him sedated (both because of the tube, and because the guy was conscious when he got to him, as was this poor :censored::censored::censored::censored::censored::censored::censored:) treated for shock, although he wasn't bleeding a lot apparently.

His pt died a few days later in ICU as did this bloke.

Chicken piziola sub....chicken pieces smothered in marinara sauce on a bed of salami....it seems more anatomically accurate somehow....its also delicious.

Me hungry.

I was eating lunch when I watched it. Matter of fact, most of my crewmates were. We all though it was a cool vid.

i wonder if those were voluntary movements of any sort when he was in the ER. or was that just his body twitching?

And there's the doctor, hands gloved, supporting either side of the guy's face and OPENING AND CLOSING THE GAP! You know the soundtrack is going, "Hey, check this OUT! He's Vertically Hinged... Oops, that's un-hinged...wait a minute; THERE! he's hinged again!!!!!"

If he's still bleeding badly, aim for the bubbles. Otherwise, it appears that he didn't sustain injury to his larynx. In his case, you wouldn't need the laryngoscope.
