A Kansas teenager, Joey Zeman, was hospitalized after falling onto a pair of pliers while shoveling snow, which impaled his skin and broke his hip bone.
He was airlifted to a hospital where doctors removed the pliers, and he is now recovering at home.
Zeman said, “I didn’t know they were in there [his body] until I looked down.”
“Then I tried to pull them out and they didn’t come out,” he explained.
He “started yelling for my friend’s mom to come help me” before being brought to the hospital.
Zeman said, “While I’m shoveling snow, I’ll just take my time.”
Zeman plans to be more cautious in the future.
His mother, Alicia, noted that farm kids like Zeman tend to avoid professional treatment for injuries.
“They’re farm kids, so it’s like taking a farmer to the ER,” said Zeman’s mother Alicia.
“They don’t like to go very often. It’s got to be pretty bad,” she added.
His mother also advised, “Just don’t carry pliers on the ice.”
Zeman is expected to make a full recovery.
