Professional photographer Guy Smallman being hit by a stun grenade whilst he was covering a protest outside a G8 summit in Geneva in June 2003. Guy sustained serious injuries and permanent damage to his leg after the grenade was thrown by a police officer. He is launching an appeal after a Swiss court found that the police are not responsible for his injuries.

  • I like fish

  • Judge: Mr Smallman, what is your reason for appealing case no. 8545?

    Guy: I am not happy that the court ruled that the police are not responsible for my injuries.

    Judge: So you are gonna sue the police when you ran into a flashbang right in front of you?

  • @iloupak yes,its a fish

    everyone is talking about fish,pretty strange

  • @ExternTrailer you talk shit. the blast wave destroys your lung if you are beside an explosion. some people already died cuz of flash bangs in france and swizz.

  • @anewell41 It's called adrenaline. I'm sure that you have never, ever been in a fight before, or else you would know that even if your opponent has broken all the bones in your legs, your body will still want to get youy out of there. That's why he is still running.

  • Flash out...

  • what the fuck everywhere i go some dumbass always relate something to cod?

  • @anewell41 It took a pretty sizable chunk out of the back of his legs. There's a couple of photos of the wounds floating around the net. You'll notice after the explosion he's not running quite so well. I doubt he made it far once he got out of the line of fire.

    You'd be surprised how much a human body can take when under the influence of adrenaline.

  • @GustavStonovic FLAK JACKET PRO DOESNT DO SHIT TO STUN GRENADES! ITS TACTICAL MASK PRO! DAMN

  • @anewell41
