*snort* Sounds like the guy didn’t want to go to the hospital for fear of arrest, and just bled out. Bad decision.

A torniquet might have saved his life, or it might have cost him his leg - they’re definitely a last-ditch treatment. What he should have done was to apply direct pressure to the wound and called an ambulance.

I come form Appalachia where cock fighting is a HUGE underground industry, and make no mistake, those mistake spurs they attach to the rooster's feet are razor sharp knives. I'm pretty sure that this isn't the first guy ever killed or critically injured by cockfighting spurs.

Thanks for posting those photos. I’d rather not search for “cock fighting” with “safe” turned off. That being said, YIKES!!!!

Isn’t that some form of duel that takes place in a SF Bath House?

BTW when us ‘old folks’ reminisce about good times spent in a Japanese Bath House in the 50’s/60’s, it is not to be confused with a ‘modern day US Bath House’.

A well deserved luxury, I am sure. My father was a young Army Lt in Korea about that time - Cheers!
