Scary In The News… Man Kills Self With Fishing Lure
Jul 31st, 2008 by Jon
A long island man died in a freak accident while fishing at Jones Beach. This is definitely one of the strangest deaths I have heard of in a while. We have all heard about people hooking themselves with a fishing line in the eye or lip or anywhere else, but at the worst it results in a trip to the hospital.
From the story, this man’s line snapped when he casted and recoiled back. There was a 3 ounce sinker on the line that came back with such extreme force that it hit him in the eye and went all the way to his brain. Massive bleeding ensued and he was pronounced dead of brain surgery.
To me this is just crazy and scary that such freak accidents can happen… and they can happen to anybody, anytime, doing anything.
If there is a moral of this story, I would say that it is people don’t kill people, crazy flying fish weights kill people… in freak accidents… so BEWARE!
