Re: Brazil - Kite Line Injury to the Arm
How the hell do you hurt yourself flying a kite?

Re: Brazil - Kite Line Injury to the Arm
May, 2020. The clothing assistant Felipe Alves, 20 years old, was hit by a line used to fly a kite that was wearing wax, Saturday (9), and suffered a deep cut on his arm. The young man had to undergo surgery to restore the muscle at the Emergency Hospital in Goiânia (Hugo). According to Felipe's sister-in-law, Annathália Pereira, 25, he was walking near GO-040, in the Jardim das Esmeraldas neighborhood, in Goiânia, on his way to an aunt's house. A car passed the young man, dragging a line of kite with wax that was attached to his arm. “The cut was very deep, so much so that he underwent surgery and will need physiotherapy to recover the full movement of the arm”, explains the sister-in-law. Felipe recorded a video inside the hospital asking people not to use wax. The young man claims the line cut his muscle in half. “You are putting your life and the lives of other people at risk,” he says. According to Annathália, his family is concerned about his recovery. Until Monday he would be hospitalized, so he should return to work in a few days. |

Haha, I didn't know it had been in the news. The bloke is in one the Brazilian gore groups that I'm in + he shared the images there.

Re: Brazil - Kite Line Injury to the Arm
Here in the Philippines, there used to be an event of kite fights. They attack each other's kite either to destroy the kite or cut its line. Many kite flyers used to powder sharp glass and then immerse their lines in adhesives of various kinds then make the glass bits stick to their lines. making it somehow sharp enough to cut other lines. lots of injuries like that often occurs during the event. some with punctures from kite skeleton structures or cuts from lines gone awry. Imagine one loose kite with a length of sharp wires trailing along (we are talking about big kites of different sizes). the line snags a limb or a neck then the strong wind blows the kite away. leaving the snagged person with injuries. |
