That's some shitty luck and a nasty wound. Hope your friend heals up well.

List of things not to do.

1. Gig for flounders.
2. End of lists.

Dam rays always make me jumpy and that is why. I just cut em off they can keep the hardware. Hope he make a quick recovery.

Oh man, that makes my stomach flip flop just looking at the picture. Sure hope he didn't get any of that real dangerous ocean bacteria in the open wound that a lot of people have caught...

Did yall know to put his arm in hot water to neutralize the poison?

Yes, the ER did that for him. We weren't messing with that thing. He got an antibiotic IV and has to pack it with gauze until it heels from the inside out. It's gross to say the least.

Spicer? And he gets it on his arm?

I know what the stingray was aiming for, lol

Imagine that in your chest! That's easier now to imagine what killed that expert years ago

Think about the fact that what actually killed him was the fact he simply ripped the barn out after it hit. He would have lived if he left it in and went in for surgery.

Irwin was one tough fricker.
