Frat Guy Blows Up His Rectum With Firecracker, Now Being Sued
Frat party. Beer. Firecracker. Rectum. Exploded. Lawsuit.
Those are the keywords you’ll be taking away from this article.
In 2011, at a party being held by the Alpha Tao Omega fraternity at West Virginia’s Marshall University, a fine young gentleman by the name of Travis Hughes (a member of said fraternity) came up with perhaps the greatest idea in the history of great ideas:
Let’s see if I can launch this bottle rocket from my anus!
So the intrepid young Travis stuck the firecracker stem up his butt and lit the fuse. Then his butt exploded.
Now, poor Travis and his fraternity are being sued by a guy named Louis Helmburg III. He was at the party and in the vicinity of Mr. Hughes when his butt blew up. As the lawsuit states, "Instead of launching, the bottle rocket blew up in the defendant's rectum, and this startled the plaintiff and caused him to jump back” and fall off a second story balcony.
Louis Helmberg says he suffered pain and incurred sizable medical expenses as a result of injuries sustained in the fall, and he believes the fraternity was negligent in supervising its guests and members.
But really, what could the fraternity possibly have done to prevent this? Should they have had a strict “no shooting firecrackers out your anus” policy? Because I think you just assume people won’t be doing stuff like that.
And even if they had a “no shooting firecrackers out your anus” policy, it’s my experience that once a dude really gets it in his head to break this type of rule, you’re just better off getting the hell out of the way.
Sadly, the lawsuit makes no mention of what ever happened to the guy with the blown up rectum. Hopefully he’s okay.
