A UK man accidentally stabbed himself to death while trying to separate two frozen burgers with a knife in a freakish accident that initially left cops baffled, a court hearing into his bizarre death was told.

Barry Griffiths, 57, died after he accidentally plunged the blade into his stomach at his home in Powys, Wales, in July last year, the Western Telegraph reported.

Buried in the story: "Griffiths — who had limited use of one arm following a stroke".

While a stroke can happen at 57 or younger, there's an awful lot of stroke victims around since the Jim Jones Jab was foisted on the public.

A smart guy told us he got a great deal on tomatoes. A few days later, somebody heard a loud sound coming from his dorm room, and opened the door. Tomato Man had made a large batch of tomato sauce, and frozen most of it into one huge chunk.

He decided using a chain saw was the best option. Not sure that was going to enhance the flavor.

Today, we’d all wonder why he had a chain saw.

One of the two smartest guys I’ve ever known bought a knife. He had to see how sharp it was. Could it split a hair? He found out it would cut his finger pretty well.

Couldn’t get a diet coke bottle open.

Try a door next time.
Open door. On hinge side of door insert container between door and jamb.
Close door to tighten on lid and twist.

Or they could have Eagle Syndrome and have idiot Doctors who can’t diagnose it and don’t know it can compress your jugular and carotid artery.

Who knew that having two sticks in your neck that shouldn’t be there could end up messing you up.

No one who has been through an anatomy class should be surprised.

When I was 14, I was tried to carve a piece of wood with a box cutter by pulling the knife thru the wood towards me. It came out of the wood so fast I stuck the the cutter into the back of my hand behind my thumb, severing a blood vessel. It took 3 stitches to close. To this day (56 years later) the inside of my thumb is still a little numb. I must’ve severed a verve as well. It hasn’t caused me any problems, just a little numbness.

But I ain’t NEVER stabbed myself in the stomach!

Btw, if you are from Detroit area lead singer for group I Prevail has Eagle Syndrome. What he went through nearly broke him.

No doubt much medical gaslighting

So when I go to the pharmacy and take the rubbers to the checkout I should tell them I’m using them to open Coke bottles?
