"Kevin Gallant, of Summerside, P.E.I., had part of his small intestine removed after he swallowed a bristle from a barbecue brush.
"I was very ill, probably as close to death as you want to be," he said from his home in Summerside, P.E.I.
"The barbecue brush bristle had started to move, so it was trying to come through the wall of my small intestine. So I was told I was very fortunate that they found it, because it would have just pierced through the small intestine into one of my major organs until it found a spot that it would have just killed me."
He still uses a bristle brush, but inspects the barbecue thoroughly after using it."
Why!?!?!?
- mathattack 10y agoCrazy, but also explains why they are so hard to get rid of.
- dghughes 10y agoSounds like a Jerry Springer episode. Baby you're bad for me but I need you! "Coming up next BBQ Brush nearly killed him but he still wants her back. And forth."
- mathattack 10y agoI hate to admit that I saw Springer lived. Looks even more rigged than on TV. (If possible)
- userbinator 10y agoWhy not? The brush cleans perfectly well and he's now aware of the risks. He'll probably inspect his food a lot more thoroughly too...
- ChoHag 10y agoGotta get rid of that encrusted carbon and iron. Human bodies don't deal with those elements half as well as they do short steel spikes.
