That Gnarly Skiing Injury
Skiing, Video March 5th. 2008, 10:47amThis is graphic. If you get queasy at the sight of limbs bent entirely the wrong way, you may want to look away. The Austrian skiier, Matthias Lanzinger, had his lower left leg amputated yesterday.

That ranks right up there with Jason Street’s injury. One minute you are competing the next you can’t walk

for some reason i can watch that and not get too queezy, but every time i think about those guys on that scaffolding from last week i start getting ill.

I’m always surprised that you don’t see that more often.

I gotta be honest with you – that wasn’t that bad a crash.
Are we sure that wasn’t Eduardo da Silva?

That is bad. His leg is just hanging there, probably connected by nothing more than the skin and a tendon or two at that point.

Joe Theismann said that was ugly.

Injuries like that are the reason I never leave my Mom’s basement. Virtual knee injuries from my Atari Skiing game and a case of the cyber clap I got from AdultFriendFinder are more than enough for me…
