Fair warning for those of you weak of stomach, this might be the time to smash that MFing back button.
Your old m8 Alex Dyson has been off galavanting about the world since his tenure at Triple J came to a close at the end of last year, combining work with a fair bit of travelling around the place and generally living it up in an envious manner.
‘Course everything exists in balance, and you can’t have all highs without the occasional low, or in this case it’s a disLOWcation (*awaits gold medal from Comedy Olympics*).
Dyson, while roller blading in New York, managed to pop his elbow summarily out of joint, uploading the whole saga to his Instagram story feed in a series of hilarious and ultimately stomach churning snaps.
There’s the calm before the storm…
The arrival of the unseen obstacle…
The attempt to traverse it…
And finally, the horrific aftermath. Do not say we didn’t warn you, holy shit.
Fortunately for old mate it appears a bunch of good guy hospital types were able to pop the joint back in with minimal fuss, with Dyson posting the (reasonably) happy aftermath to his Instagram.
Here’s the thing, this apparently isn’t even his first elbow mishap on this trip. The good lad put his elbow out previously in Albania while attempting a cartwheel. There’s footage, of course.
My dude, let’s maybe consider keeping two feet on the ground for the remainder of the trip, yeah?
Travel Insurance, folks. It’s important for a reason.
