Most Graphic Thing You've Ever Seen In Real Life - Page 6

A couple of candidates here...
I had someone snap their ankle sliding into 3rd base right in front of me--first baserunner of the game, just nasty.

Last year, I stumbled into my local convenience store parking lot only to find a dwarf get beat down and killed by a guy. I was on my way in, saw the tail end of the confrontation. Dwarf smacked his head against the pavement, eyes rolled back into his head and he ended up dying right there. They tried to revive him for about 45 minutes.
Cops came and I was with them for a few hours, tracking down the guy who did it. He only lived 3 blocks away from me.

Probably the nastiest though was when I was working as a bouncer and wouldn't let a guy in who was clearly messed up. He was upset I threw him out and ended up trying to jump through the plate glass windows out front. I went out front and was chasing him down the street, following the trail of blood. As I got closer I could see that his arm was cut to the bone, right by the elbow with a huge gash all around and a huge chunk of meat hanging off. He still wanted to fight, too, but I wasn' tin the market for a bloodmatch. Cops ended up showing up and taking him in. Apparently he had been drinking all day, among other things. He put up such a stink when they were bringing him in they had him handcuffed to his hospital bed with no pain meds all night.

I remember seeing the famous photos of the long bombed out trail of iraqi vehicles leaving Kuwait. There was a HUGE uproar here and in Europe about it, and suddenly the support for the war here plunged very dramatically.

Anyway, my thought was, what the hell do people THINK war is about, anyway? It's not a f**king nintendo game, you morons!

Sadly, I think the intuitive feeling that war really IS kind of like a game and doesn't really do horrible things to people, including plenty of the innocent, is one of the reasons we get into them so easily and support them so much. It shouldn't take t.v. coverage to make us bear in mind the brutality of violence and war that we so often breezily sanction, whether we're for or against military interventions. It seems many people handle things by just not thinking about them or pretending it's all a movie.

That rant over, I think the most graphic thing I can remember seeing in real life was a guy screaming on the sidewalk with the top of his head about a foot from him, and a chunk of his brain on the sidewalk that was maybe something over half the size of an average fist. The rest of it you could see still in his head. Somehow, he was still screaming his head off, just non-stop screaming. I don't know how the heck it happened, but it was really chilling. Nobody could do anything of course, and there was no hope for him, and all he could do is let loose his last screams as loud as he could.

1. My wife's C-section

2. Large puddle of blood at an Atlanta murder scene

3. My camera store used to develop MARTA's (Atlanta's rapid transit) photos of suicide/accident victims. Not real life, but some gory stuff. They probably use digital now. Pity.

I did some work in Texas a few years ago and they gave me a pickup truck to drive so I was up high enough to see the details of an accident that happened one morning. There was a construction delay at a 4 way stop but some guy didn't want to wait so he pulled out around us and got smoked by a big cube van. It was completely his fault and I told the cops I thought he was totally nuts. The truck had smashed into the top of the windshield and the small sedan had caroomed off to the side of the road. The truck driver was alright. Right after the accident I ran to the car and saw what was left of the driver. The steering wheel was imbedded into his mid-section about half way and his head was a pretty impossible angle so I knew he was dead. But the whole front right side of the car was splattered with blood because his right arm was torn off although I didn't see where the actual arm had gotten too. Pretty gross but that's not the most graphic part.

While I was waiting around and talking to the police a couple of tow trucks pulled up and apparantly had arranged to tow the wreck away once the corpse was removed and the statements taken. One of the tow truck drivers hanging around was a typical big beerbelly bearded guy with a dirty white shirt. He was poking around the car when I saw him reach in the smashed passenger side window and pull out something covered in blood that I hadn't noticed before. It was the dead man's brown bag lunch splattered with gore. The horrible motherfucker tow truck driver then proceeded to eat the sandwiches from the dead guy's lunch at the side of the road. Only then did I feel sick and grabbed a cop and said, "Jesus, do you see that?" but the cop said, "That's nothing, I've seen those guys steal watches off of dead peoples wrists." I can't seem to remember the features of the dead guy very well but I'll never forget that filthy [censored] towtruck driver cramming what looked like a PBJ sandwich into his mouth and wiping the blood from the bag onto his shirt.

The cops were working the scene, but the body was gone. The large pool of fresh blood was still there. You could smell it.

But, you know, like, I know you didn't do it, homes.
