Ispeed_V Posted March 7, 2018 Posted March 7, 2018 It makes me sick to the bone reading this type of story. All we can hope and pray is that he makes a complete recovery and the F...K that did this to him are brought to justice.
Wet Ears Posted March 7, 2018 Posted March 7, 2018 https://www.msn.com/en-za/sport/more-sports/sa-triathlete-undergoes-surgery-after-robbers-try-to-cut-off-his-legs/ar-BBJYuS0?li=AAaxc0E&ocid=spartandhp So, Not a chainsaw but rather a hacksaw/normal hand saw?? I just imagined the pain he must have felt when I thought of it being a chainsaw, but now that I read it's a hand saw it makes me even worse. I thought you must be sick to chop someone's leg with chainsaw, but now that I've read a handsaw, I cannot actually believe it. Really hope this young lad makes a full miraculous recovery.No a chainsaw that would not start, this is from News24 article "The chainsaw was not sharp and they couldn't get it started. So they manually started cutting"
FootballingCyclist Posted March 7, 2018 Posted March 7, 2018 No a chainsaw that would not start, this is from News24 article "The chainsaw was not sharp and they couldn't get it started. So they manually started cutting" THAT is even more messed up then.

scotty Posted March 7, 2018 Posted March 7, 2018 Really is messed up, they had his bike and belongings but still tried to cut off his leg, when that did not work they changed to the other leg.
