Arm of man who fell off a bicycle


Note that not only are the radius and ulna broken, but the metal plates inside the bones (from repair of previous fractures) are bent at a 90 degree angle.  The victim explains:
Was on a nice leisurely bike ride - shoe laces got stuck on my bike pedal and wrapped around multiple times over. Fell off as I was braking to get them unstuck. I never want to get on a bike again 😫
Embedded image cropped for size and emphasis from the original at Reddit, via Neatorama, where the appropriate advice is offered: "Always double tie your shoes before riding a bike, and tuck the ends into the shoe."
