Not sure if this is real news or not. Source: http://chinanews.sina.com/news/2008/0715/18152819318.html
I think it's a fake. The racket shadow doesn't seem go coincide with the picture. 1. the shadow seems a bit too dark. 2. the distance between the racket and background should cast a different shadow regardless of camera flash or room light. The shadow seem to laying right on the background objects instead of being cast out by the light. Also did you guy notice that only the racket has a shadow while nothing else does.
Should be real! Its on most major newspaper! The moral is: NEVER PLAY WITH PEOPLE THAT USE CHEAP (OR FAKE) RACKET! Make sure u check your opponent's racket before play!
羽 球 拍 折 斷 飛 插 入 頭 廣 州 某 高 校 的 陳 姓 體 育 老 師 在 觀 看 羽 毛 球 訓 練 時 , 竟 飛 來 橫 禍 。 對 面 一 名 學 生 在 殺 球 時 , 球 拍 折 斷 , 金 屬 杆 連 同 圓 形 球 拍 劃 了 一 道 弧 線 飛 出 , 恍 如 標 槍 , 直 插 入 陳 老 師 兩 眼 中 間 的 額 頭 , 深 達 兩 厘 米 。 緊 急 送 院 經 醫 生 三 個 小 時 手 術 , 才 將 球 拍 拔 除 。 醫 生 表 示 , 額 骨 本 是 人 體 最 硬 的 骨 頭 之 一 , 但 因 球 拍 剛 好 插 進 只 有 一 元 錢 硬 幣 大 小 、 額 骨 中 最 脆 弱 的 額 竇 部 位 , 才 會 插 入 腦 內 。 The above is from Apple Daily Hong Kong. Took the doctor 3 hrs to take it off. The racket was 2cm deep into the head!
IF you at the racket the actual part that went through his skull is the handle. So this is fake. How does wood pierce your skull?
FAKE FAKE FAKE FAKE FAKE !!!! obviously it's fake. shadow is photoshop or somthing. no way a racket handle could pierce your skull when it's too thick. especially in that far. the racket must been launch from a rocket launcher. how the hell would you get that in your head in the first place. lol
ITs a fake. Even if its real.. i pity the guy. The room is in such mess to be considered a hospital or clinic.
poor guy, died due to badminton racket. the handle go through the eye, into the brain. most likely, his opponent jump smashed, loose grip..... flewwwwwwwwww......... the handle bulls eye....
hm..... how long is our racket's handle? i can see the cone already reached his eye. my guess, the end cap already way far in.... unless, this so called "broken racket", the handle is broken into a sharp edge....?
Someone should translate the article: The metal part of the racket break away from the handle when smash... And the bottom part fly like a spear and poke into the forehead between the eyes!
SO the handle is not intact? Another point is why is that picture taken in a home, why no blood, why lack of shadows from flash, what's he doing with his right arm over his head. It is conceivable that it has gone through the eye. I seen something like that once before. A guy fell over in a market and on to the bamboo stick coming up from the ground. Neurosurgeons took 4 or 5 hours to remove the stick which had gone through the eye socket and into the brain. It had gone through the connections between the left and right part of the brain.
