Continuation of mind-boggling stories

Here are 2 more stories!!
Enjoy...

**Implants**




A Canadian man who decided to get breast implants put in his leg to make his tattoo of a lady more anatomically accurate. Well, we have sad news to report: his leg breasts have burst.

The leg boobs: sadly no more
Jensen, a tattoo artist and editor of a body art magazine from Edmonton, says that his body has rejected the implants.
The implants were put in on December 9, but by Christmas Eve, Lane tells the Edmonton Sun, the sutures had split, and large quantities of lymphatic fluid were oozing out of his leg.
'There was so much fluid in there. I went back to the studio and pushed on it gently - the implant shot right out,' he told the paper.
He says that there was nothing wrong with the implantation procedure, performed by his friend Brian Decker, a New York-based micro-dermal surgeon.
'My body just rejected it. I guess my girl wasn't meant to have 3D breasts.'
He tried to heal the burst breasts by freezing his own leg and sewing it back up himself, but then his leg burst open again. Eventually, doctors gave him some antibiotics, a lot of gauze to patch it up, and told him to leave it alone until the fluids stop leaking out.


**Go DVD's!!**

The DVD wars may have officially ended, but DVDs are still suffering casualties on the front-lines in America. A DVD from South Carolina was badly injured as it saved a man's life - by taking a bullet for him.
Colleton County Fire and Rescue Director Barry McRoy says he was leaving a Waffle House restaurant in the town of Walterboro on Saturday morning when two men ran in fighting over a gun.
Police say a bullet hit one of the struggling men, shattered a window and then hit McRoy.
But McRoy's life was saved as the bullet hit a DVD he was carrying in his pocket..

Most impressively, while he suffered a bruise, he didn't even realize he had been shot. It was only as he told a police officer what had happened that he noticed a bullet hole in his jacket, the shattered DVD case and a piece of the bullet.
'I was saved by a DVD,' McRoy says. 'How lucky can you get?'
One man was arrested on assault and battery and gun charges.
The DVD itself - which was a gift from an employee who had recorded a TV show about fire extinguishers - was damaged in the incident. It is not known if it is still watchable (or, indeed, why someone would want to watch a TV show about fire extinguishers, even if they are a Fire and Rescue Director).
