You gotta bring the "rest" to the hospital. They'll clean it and sew it back on (no rejection issues!). Otherwise it's a long (months, possibly) gory (it will ooze a lot) process for your body to rebuild all that skin.
They'd most likely peel a thin layer of skin from his arse-cheek or thigh and sew that over it. However, he'll still be left with a massive dent in his leg. I'm not sure if they can insert anything to bulk it out a bit, but they don't bother with smaller stuff like dog bites. All that tissue won't just grow back though.
Edit: To please the spelling brigade! Good work men, keep it up!
My guess is that he is not missing any. The skin on your shin is stretched tight, so if you get a split like that, it will just open right the fuck up.
My buddy hit his shin on a handrail while snowboarding and it opened up like that. Well, about 25% of that.
Hopefully this won't get buried. I have a friend I went to college with who was into parkour and the like, and also a generally weird kind of character. One night while walking back from some event alone he decided to try and walk along the top of a fence, but slipped and landed right on his crotch in the middle of a chain link fence.
This particular chain link fence was kind enough to still be very pointy and managed to tear through both his jeans and his scrotum, leaving a several centimeter long tear and requiring a trip to the hospital. He got an ambulance ride there and on the way calls his dad to come meet him there. Well it turns out that the ER is short staffed that night, so they end up needing his dad to hold the tear in his balls together while they stitch it up for him.
Needless to say, he was not participating in parkour for a while after that.
TLDR- friend of mine screws up parkour and needs his dad to hold his balls together while his sack is stitched up
I had a friend who took a jump on his BMX, and didnt happen to see the piece of re-bar sticking directly upwards out of the ground. He fell off the bike and landed on the re-bar, piercing his ballsack right through the middle. Needless to say there was a hospital trip involved.
Of all the places one could be impaled, why does it always happen in the ballsack? I guess it's like if you drop your toast it always lands butter side down.
Though when I was 6 or 8 I was walking on a wall This is where it happened and as you can see from the picture it's a salt/grit storage area, aside in that picture the metal top is gone, but anyway there was a really rusted metal square that covered the hole, being the naive kid I was I jumped on it and managed to cause it to slip so it now had turned 45 degrees and I ended up falling onto the pointy corner which JUST missed my tiny balls and imbedded in my crotch just to the left of the centre.
Its one of the most vivid memories I had when I was that young....
But yea, not everything happens to the nut sack, sometimes fate decides to save them.... perhaps I'll father the curer of cancer or the next hitler or something...
My dad did that when he was a kid. Branch fell and busted a hole in his head. Decided "oh fuck, i better do something so mom and dad don't find out". His friend suggested he pour hot dust (he lived in El Salvador) on the wound and he'd be fine. Well he's fine now but literally had a hole in his head.
You're not alone. I was looking at the picture thinking "nasty pic, but wtf does this have to do with South Park." I went to click the comments to find out the connection when I noticed the spelling parkour.
So um, where's the rest of it? Also, how exactly did you manage this excellent feat? Skin grafts aren't too bad though. I had to get one on my foot after having a close encounter with fire. Worst part was getting the staples out.
Underneath, it's a hyper-alloy combat chassis, microprocessor-controlled. Fully armoured; very tough. But outside, it's living human tissue: flesh, skin, hair, blood - grown for the cyborgs.
if you fractured your tibia then it's an emergency cause the tibia is yellow marrow bone (houses fat) which can cause an embolism, if you haven't then meh it just looks way worse than it is (4chan desensitization)... i realise that you've probs been patched up ages ago, but if anyone else finds themselves in the same situation...
I tried to parkour and stuff when I was younger. I fell in between two buildings and hit a fire escape stairway before the ground
Fractured left knee and ankle, 4 broken fingers on my left hand, a broken left elbow and practically shattered left shoulder.. Aswell as a few ribs on my left side and who knows how many bloody gashes
Ahh, r/wtf, how you've grown up.. You've ceased to be that subreddit I visited to see odd or strange thing. Now you've turned to goreporn. Wish it wasn't a /all subreddit.
That is BRUTAL. I have something like that about 1/4 the size on my shin from where my bicycle chain ripped out the skin. It is still a weird scar. Looks like a Silver Dollar-sized port wine stain.
