A surgery patient going under the knife at the Tokyo Medical University Hospital in Shinjuku has reportedly suffered severe burns due to her flatulence while unconscious, sure to serve as a rather embarrassing (and painful) story to tell later on down the road.
“External experts” have since given their opinion regarding the incident and have confirmed that it was indeed the patient’s flatulence that had led to the spontaneous combustion, which was theorized to have been ignited by a surgical laser, causing the surgical drape to catch fire and resulting in the patient’s (a woman in her thirties who was undergoing a cervical operation) waist and legs being horribly burned.
Though many may find the story humorous, such an uncontrolled emission clearly has the potential to damage more than just a patient’s chances with any nearby staff…
And this if funny why exactly? f♥♥k you people.
My ass is so hot I can set myself on fire!
And because the image is of a girl with brown skin?
It is like saying that Mexican or Latin American left so grimy.
That is epic and also wow
Something about this story stinks.
Farts during surgery happen. Especially if they have to stick something into an orifice – take it from someone who had cameras shoved up his ass and down his throat simultaneously because the hospital was too stupid to realize I had a gallbladder issue. It’s not something the body can stop as farts are made by bacteria within the orifices. Unless, of course, the doctors kill all the bacteria in the digestive tract, which will kill you in a max. of 9 days in a very horrific way (which is a fact, google it).
Doctors account for gas emissions. For a fire to actually start because ol’ Bessie let one rip thereby burning down Chicago is inconceivable. Someone at the hospital royally fucked up.
