Still Waters Posted January 23, 2014 #1 Share Posted January 23, 2014 A Brazilian woman was hospitalised this week after a spiky porcupine fell from the sky and landed on her head. Housewife Sandra Nabucco was left in agony after the clumsy rodent embedded more than 200 of its sharp quills in her scalp. http://metro.co.uk/2...s-head-4274239/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlanB Posted January 23, 2014 #3 Share Posted January 23, 2014 New idea for a siege weapon: porcupine catapult. Or porcupult for short. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlanB Posted January 23, 2014 #5 Share Posted January 23, 2014 It would've been cool if the lady exploded into a bunch gold rings that were collected by the porcupine before it ran off at supersonic speed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Likely Guy Posted January 23, 2014 #6 Share Posted January 23, 2014 I have an old browser and I can't seem to open the article. Can someone tell me how the porcupine came to be airborne? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rashore Posted January 23, 2014 #8 Share Posted January 23, 2014 I have an old browser and I can't seem to open the article. Can someone tell me how the porcupine came to be airborne? It was walking on a wire overhead and fell off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xynoplas Posted January 23, 2014 #11 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Well, they climb. I had the same reaction: porcupines don't "throw" their quills; people stick their faces in the porky's business and then claim the were attacked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if this was the case here, she was just in the wrong place at the right time for the porcupine....thats life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
