A pilot who crashed his microlight into a tree and was skewered by a giant branch


A pilot who crashed his microlight into a tree and was skewered by a giant branch through his shoulder brushed off the serious injury by telling the doctors "I am Groot!".

Lying in hospital with a gigantic piece of wood thrust through his shoulder, Ivan Krasouski, joked that he was the Guardians of the Galaxy character Groot, a walking tree.

The 36-year-old from Belarus was flying his paratrike, a kind of microlight, in the countryside when he crashed into a forest.


In the remarkable footage he tells the viewers to look at the gory images of his injury.

"Everyone already knows anyway, doctors spread the pictures, so there’s nothing to hide. Look!”

“I looked and it was a giant log there,” he said.

“I tore my shirt and there was a branch in my arm, thick as a watermelon.”

One of his ex-classmates arrived at the scene and helped him get out of the crash by sawing off each end of the branch.

He was then taken to the emergency ward at the local hospital with the gigantic log still stuck inside him.
But despite his serious injury, Krasouski still found time to lark about.

"Many people came. I told them - ‘Take out this splinter’," he said in the video.

“And they say - ‘No, are you crazy? If we take it away, you’ll bleed to death.’

“And I was like: 'I am Groot!'
“And I went to the ambulance with this log embedded in me.”

Groot, who first appeared in the 2014 hit Marvel film Guardians of the Galaxy and is played by Vin Diesel, has become a cult character for superhero movie fans.

The walking tree is a fearsome fighter but only says one thing whatever the circumstances: "I am Groot!"

Despite being impaled by the metre-long branch through his shoulder, Krasouski was well enough to film a video from his hospital bed laughing at the shocking accident.

In 1999 a female corpse with black objects on its feet was unearthed in Heilongjiang (China). Experts revealed her tragic experience: was she buried alive? For more than 200 years, a woman's skin, muscles, and joints remained intact. This female body was in the coffin, with a distorted posture and open mouth. Although it has become a mummy, it is not difficult to see that its expression is in great pain. The mummy was about 164 cm, the whole body was black as coal, and the placenta was not removed from the mummy before dying. The placenta was attached to the buttocks. Looking closer, the left hand and foot are mutilated. According to the archaeological team, it was a young woman in her 25s from the mummy's face and bones. According to Chinese tradition, the person who dies before being buried is cleaned and straightened by the limbs. The Mystery of the Cause of Death: Did you die of chronic poisoning or difficult childbirth? When the female mummy was found, her skin was still y...

THE HORRIBLE EXECUTION OF TERESA LEWIS FOR THE MURDER OF HER HUSBAND.

Teresa Wilson Bean Lewis who became only the second woman executed by Virginia, when she was put to death in 2010, at the age of 41. Teresa had first met Julian, a widower, in the Spring of 2000 at the Dan River Inc. fabric factory where they both worked. By June of that year, they were married and Teresa moved into Julian’s trailer on five acres of land in Keeling, in rural Pittsylvania County, Virginia.Julian’s son, Jason, had died in an accident in December 2001 and his father had received his life insurance payout, a sum in excess of $200,000, which he placed in an account that was only accessible by him. In August 2002, Julian's son Charles was required to report for National Guard duty so Julian made a will and took out a $250,000 life insurance policy on him.

Meet Armin Meiwes, The German Cannibal Who Placed An Online Ad To Eat Someone — And Someone Answered

"Blood is the juice of life. It contains everything a person needs for nutrition." In 2001, Armin Meiwes killed and feasted on a willing victim at his home in Rotenburg, Germany who he met through an online ad he placed looking for someone to be eaten. And once he was done, he butchered the man's body and stored it in freezer bags in a secret compartment in his kitchen refrigerator for the next 20 months.  In total, Meiwes consumed more than 44 pounds of human flesh and even tried to grind his bones into flour.  But eventually, the meat began to run out, so Meiwes returned online to find a new victim. This time, however, a college student alerted the police to the ads. When they raided Meiwes' home, they uncovered his first victims' remains along with a four-hour-long videotape of the initial encounter — only 19 minutes of which were played at his trial because the rest was deemed "too disturbing to show."   Go inside the disturbing story of the German c...

a girl who was trafficked by a trafficker, and then she found out and sold the trafficker to another trafficker.

Every time I see this problem, I think of a girl who was trafficked by a trafficker, and then she found out and sold the trafficker to another trafficker. (This is a real thing, not a story. CCTV's legal program has a report. You can check it out.)The girl's name is Liu Hui. She has just graduated from high school and is not yet 18 years old. She went to play in the city and was ready to go home.  A thief stole her purse at the station. When she found her purse was gone, she said, "I lost my wallet. Who has stolen my purse?". At this time, a beautiful woman in her thirties came to her and said, "sister, you lost your wallet. Where are you going? Liu Hui said she wanted to go home and the place where she lived. She also said that she had no money to buy a ticket. The woman said, "what a coincidence. I'm from there, too. We're fellow villagers. I'll buy you a ticket.". Liu Hui said, "thank you, elder sister. It's very kind of you. I...

AN UNFORTUNATE SOVIET FEMALE SOLDIER LIES DEAD, SHORTLY BEFORE BEING EXECUTED..

An unfortunate Soviet female soldier lies dead, shortly after being executed by her German captors. 1941. Red Army female soldiers did not have a life to envy. The Germans called them "rifle broads." I believe there was actually a German Directive to kill female soldiers outright, similar to the 'commando order'.  Their fellow Russian male soldiers called them "field mattresses." The propaganda machine is quick to replace that with the timeless woman-knight archtype ('polianitsy'). Behind the lie of smiling hyper-snipers was a war against life itself. Nobody knows how many times it ended like this. You see a photograph like this and wonder about the human mind on the other side of the lens. Was he documenting reality, possibly the nihilism of war? Or is she a hunting trophy. Imagine how many hands and minds a photo from early 1940s, taken by a nobody halfway around the world and long dead, of 1 subject out of tens of millions, has to go through befor...
