Gunshot wound - pictures

Good article but the horrible results of carelessness are never pretty. I hope this makes everyone who looks at this realize the potential you wield when handling a firearm. Thankfully, most will only have to recall the ignorant, stupid, dumba$$ feeling you get from a negligent discharge.
PEOPLE, Know and practice the four rules !

Looks like nice neat work on the part of the surgeon. The kind that I'd never want him to have to do because of my, or anyone else's, ND.

Thanks for the safety reminder.

My girlfriend is currently pursuing the college credits needed to become an RN (registered nurse), and she wants to work in the emergency room as much as possible. The odd thing is, she's a lot more squemish than I am regarding blood and wounds. I'll never figure that one out.

Couldn't you take her hunting with you, and her sole purpose in the trip is to aid in spotting the game, and field-dressing it? You get to shoot, watch her back while she is field-dressing it (against bears looking for an easy meal), and carry the carcass back to camp.

Frohickey:
Her attitude on hunting is she'll eat whatever is cooked and put on the table, but if it isnt from the grocery store she doesnt want to know what animal it was. She also refuses to go hunting or help clean or butcher anything (her dad and I are working on her, but neither of us have time to hunt). She'll learn all about what comes outside the human body that should have stayed inside while she's working this summer.

yes i am morbid, but oddly enough, i have never been able to find that site again.

Ogrish

Morbid is not a good enough word to describe Ogrish. It's nasty, not in the sick up sense(though for some it might be) but definately tasteless.

I think Rotten.com has morge and/or gunshot photos. There was one color photo of the results of this guy after he blew the top of his head off with a shotgun in the bath tub.

Morbid is not a good enough word to describe Ogrish.

No doubt about that. I've seen some pretty gory injuries over the years, including a compound fracture of my left forearm and receiving 100+ stitches from a car accident, but Ogrish is too much for me.

If people are intrerested in video of gunshot wounds you should check out the TV show called "Trauma Room, Life in the ER" on TLC (The Learning Channel). It's broadcast on Monday evenings at 8:00 PM here in Kali. They take their cameras to a different ER every week. On the weeks when they're in an innner city ER it's pretty common to see lots of video of our disadvantaged inner city youth being brought into the ER full of gunshot wounds. Lots of grusome stuff.....

Here's another one from that same site of a wound created by an idiot and a 7mm mag
