How unlucky can you be?
Discussion
My first job was working in medical boarding in the DHSS.
One of the cases that came in was for a guy who cut his finger on a piece of paper.
Whilst getting a plaster out of the first aid box on the wall, the box fell off and hit him on the head.
He was taken to A&E, had a couple of stitches and discharged.
Crossing the road outside the hospital he was knocked over by an ambulance.
Will never forget it.

Another sad story is that of Stephen Crohn. A man that ultimately took his own life because he could not contract HIV.
There are several tort cases that a waaaaaay better (or worse subject to your view) than this. When the parties are trying to establish exactly what killed someone for example...............Or whether there was an intervening act.... And this includes people dropped by paramedics and run over etc

Not wishing to sound harsh but he was going to die of something at some point. He had been HIV free for a decade and the cancer had been in remission for a similar length of time. Arguably he was luckier than most in having the HIV cured.Countdown said:
