Believe it Or Not: Kid anally killed by chair

Well, stories don't get much worse than this. A 14-year-old boy in China was killed when his chair exploded, sending chunks of metal into his rectum. The bleeding this caused killed him.

The alleged explosion came from the gas cylinder that was in the base of the chair, the part that allowed the user to adjust the seat up and down. The canister gets compressed when you sit on it, but can it actually create enough energy to make the seat cushion explode like that and kill a man? I doubt it, but this is what people are reporting



True? False? What say you?

    I've nearly killed myself leaning on my chair.

    Same as my brother, but he got it worse. Somehow managed to nearly impale himself.

    I have a friend in the military who is a gunner on a humvee

    one time an IED blew up the back half of his vehicle and sent shrapnel into his butt

    he lived, but I don't know if he's alive now :(

    "Things going into your ass and making you bleed to death" is a pretty big fear of mine.

    Though that's more having my mother convince me snakes can come up through our toilet when I was 5.

    The chairman of the safety commission should have got off his butt and made the assholes who designed this thing take a seat in the corner.

    Of course that would take a lot of cheek.
