Very unlikely story: Hasselhoff injures arm while shaving

2006-07-01 Thread Gary Nunn


Ok, I have a good imagination, but this story just reeks of total
bullsh*t The picture with the story makes David Hasselhoff look like a
game show host that's had too many Botox treatments.

Draw your own conclusions



David Hasselhoff Undergoes Surgery
Jun 30, 1:21 PM EST

The Associated Press

LONDON -- Former Baywatch star David Hasselhoff had surgery after severing
a tendon in his right arm in an accident in a London gym bathroom, his
spokeswoman said Friday.

The 53-year-old actor, who played lifeguard Mitch Buchannon on the TV beach
drama for 11 years, was shaving at a gym in the Sanderson Hotel on Thursday
when he hit his head on a chandelier, showering his arm with broken glass,
his publicist, Judy Katz, said.

Doctors operated to repair the injury and Hasselhoff spent one night at St.
Thomas' Hospital in central London, Katz said.

He's fine, Katz said by phone from New York. He's out of the hospital and
will resume filming tomorrow.

Hasselhoff is working on an ad campaign for Pipex, a British internet
company, she said.

The REAL story probably reads:

While doing a private impersonation of his Knight Rider character for an
enamored female fan, David Hasselhoff was injured in a bizarre accident that
involved a suspended ceiling sex swing, a jealous husband, a dairy cow, and
several pints of warm Guinness. 

The injury occurred, during a rescue mission, that was preformed by PenDutch
1 - the Amish Black Ops squad. The cow is now safe and resting comfortably
in her stall.

Messages left for Hasselhoff's manager, by BS News, were not returned.

Years ago I came home from class to discover that one of my roommates 
had sliced his arm when he was doing jumping jacks in the living room 
of the apartment and hit the light fixture and showered himself with 
broken glass.  So it's not too unreasonable, although I am not sure 
how shaving would require him to raise his arms that high, unless he 
was shaving parts of his body that I personally don't regularly 
shave.  My roommate was more fortunate, in that he only needed 
stitches to sew up the cuts on his arm and shoulder, and didn't slice 
a tendon or anything like that

My chandalier story includes a wedding bouquet.  Not mine.  Nobody was 
hurt, but it might have been otherwise.


I don't know what to think of the Hasselhoff story.  It's beyond my 
knowledge to visualize how the account could be accurate.  (If I went to 
the place in question, maybe it would all fall into place, or I'd be 
saying, Huh?  He must have been shaving X, and I don't know guys who do 
that except extremely serious swimmers.)
