I recall this news item from memory, I believe that it is as close an account of the news story as you will get. Recounting it still brings me out in cold sweat!
A middle aged Asian couple were at home. The lady of the house heard an agonising scream from the bathroom where her husband had been for the usual long stay.
She enquired as to his plight and forced the bathroom door on encountering only cries of agony.
The sight that greeted her was her naked husband sprawled on the bathroom floor, empailed on a broom handle.
He then explained to her, between sobs, that he had been trying to close the bathroom window when he overbalanced and fell upon the pole which snapped and pierced his body rupturing his intestine and causing fatal blood poisoning.
The poor mans story was almost corroborrated by the autopsy apart from a couple of facts, the pole had snapped whilst inside his body and the entry point was his anus.
The verdict of misadventure concluded that the man had slipped during a sex act whilst standing on the bathtub. Submitted on 03/12/2002
