Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) fell and broke “a number of ribs and bones in his face” after an exercise accident in his home on Thursday, his office said.

“On Thursday, Senator Reid received treatment at University Medical Center in Las Vegas for injuries sustained in an accident he suffered while exercising at home in Henderson,” his office said in a statement Friday morning. “A piece of equipment Senator Reid was using to exercise broke, causing him to fall and break a number of ribs and bones in his face.”

“Senator Reid will return to Washington this weekend and be in the office Tuesday as the Senate prepares to reconvene. His doctors expect a full recovery,” the statement said. “Senator Reid was first brought to St. Rose Dominican Hospital in Henderson by his security detail. He was then transferred to UMC for further testing, where he was admitted overnight as a precaution.”

With some of the more complicated all-in-one home gyms, there are all manner of protuberances against which a haplessly placed body part could be struck.

Harry was clearly not wearing the full face helmet that any prudent federal law would have required.

LOL... he saw his buddy Lindsay Gayham go into that bar so he thought it was OK.

Sounds like a couple of his mafia pals were helping him exercise.

How lucky for Reid, perhaps now he won’t smell stinky Americans citizens when the citizens visit their Capitol building.

Reid told police the last thing he remembers before falling was someone saying “you’d better pay up”

I don’t know how he could have failed any mob. Harry is not responsible for Barack having come off to the body politic like an utter ass.

I had a grin on my face just from reading the headline.

Second thought - that sounds like a beating to me.

Oh great. Now watch for Big Government to crack down on exercise equipment.
Federal licenses and regulations can’t be far away.

I recall reading a really fun story once in NR about a guy who took up amateur boxing while he was in the Navy and found himself in an unsanctioned fight complete with people at ringside betting and all kinds of sleazy stuff.

He got the hell beaten out of himself by a laid-off pipefitter, except the guy broke his right hand punching him, whereupon his ring guys told him to go finish it, which he did.

When his buddies took him to the ER back at the Navy base, (I forget which one...), they told the attending physician that he'd fallen off a bicycle.

The doctor had the punchline - "Possibly, but only after taking a hell of a beating."
