You keep reading about people getting hurt or hurting others while playing the Wii, but I think we have a winner for the worst Wii injury till date. Liz was minding her own business, blissfully playing the Legend of Zelda on her Wii when her boyfriend intervened to help her out with a boss fight, and then it happened.
Her boyfriend, Jim, who by the way is responsible for this 'accident' (I'm guessing he's going to be confined to the couch for a long time) gives us the lowdown on the events that lead up to this 'accident'. "The day our Wii arrived also happened to be when my work was holding our Christmas party. Not being one to forego free booze, off I went leaving the girlie to play to her hearts content. After guzzling a copious amount of 'wife beater' (Stella Artois) - I returned home to find the girlie in mid battle with a Zelda 'Boss'. In my inebriated state, it was instinctual to become her knight in shining armour. I proceeded to take the controllers off her and fight the beast myself.
Unfortunately, my courage was far greater then my skill. Having taken a good kicking, Liz then tried to intervene with disastrous results. She approached me from the side, appearing from my blind spot, whilst I was performing a slashing movement. I hit her with full force right in her eye!
I truly thought I'd blinded her and was almost about to call an ambulance but then her pain died down."
It's official, the Wii is a health hazard
Here is the lovely pic:-
