Believe it or not, in our first lab in college using compressed air, they specifically told us NOT to insert the airlines into and "cavities".

Apparantley some lads, stuck it up some guy and ripped his colon apart.

I didnt believe it....I still kinda dont, even though they say it every year, and I heard it before i even went into college.

They were apprentices in some industrial site. They were bullying one of the other guys pinned him down and stuck it up his arse. Caused serious internal dame. Should be articles about it floating around, went to court think they were done for GBH.

From memory of what i read about it they held him down and were laughing about it, then left him there not realizing the serious damage they had done to his intestines.

This isn't urban legend - I remember the case, even though it was quite a few years ago. It caused very serious injury if I remember right.

Ah no, serious stuff, lucky someone was there to switch the valve off.
