Camp Nightmare

2003 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

This may not deserve a Darwin award, but i'm sure the person in this story will get one eventually. It all happened on a 10 day scout camp in Essex, where the person in question went to Hospital 7 times in those 10 days.

Some of these accidents included burning his hand on a gas burner testing to see if it was alight, Having 10 stitches on his head when diving into the shallow end of the Swimming pool, and Spraining his ankle for a day when kicking a brick. The worst accident was when he broke 4 ribs and a wrist while on a moterbike. He crashed into the fence when using the brake at the same time as the accelerator. By the 6th accident (4 stitches for on his arm when peeling potatoes) his dad ( who was helping out at the camp) had to ask the scout leader to take him to hospital as he feared that the nurses would suspect that he was abusing his son.

Certainly a future contender, but needs to keep trying.

You have to wonder how some people make it safely out of the house every morning.

I like the bit at the end, where the dad asks the scout leader to take him to hospital. This kid is a future DA!

A more detailed, and funny, write up could make this a contender - especially if the protagonist meets the test of maturity. (The bit about his Dad fearing accusations of abuse is a nice detail).
