Another "Hack your own arm of" whacko!

Yes, We got another "Hack your own arm of" whacko

This time it was in Australia!

Thise mine worker gout cought under his tractor and despite that one of his coworkers had found him and called for help, HE insisted on hacking his arm off under the elbove

Doctors in Newcastle tried in wain to reatach it

ATM we don't know how this links to the old case or how long he was under the tractor

If there's artificial intelligence, there's bound to be some artificial stupidity.

English doesn't borrow from other languages. It follows them down dark alleys, knocks them over, and goes through their pockets for loose grammar.

"They were unable to save his arm because of the extent of the crush injuries,"

Does that mean there were chances of doctors amputating it anyway ?

If they couldn't reattach it because of the extent of the crush injuries odds are about 90% it would have had to be amputated anyhow.
