Mexican singer loses fingers in helicopter accident
GUATEMALA CITY (AP) --A 16-year-old singer in the Mexican pop group Magneto, Ricardo Abarca, has had three fingers reattached after four were sliced off when he waved to fans while beneath the rotors of a helicopter. "The index finger and middle finger are completely recovered," surgeon Gustavo Lopez said Wednesday. "We only have some problems with blood circulation in the little finger." Abarca's ring finger was not recovered after the accident on Saturday. Abarca, known as "Richi," got off of a helicopter at Guatemala City's La Aurora International Airport on Saturday and raised his hands in greeting to waiting fans. The still-whirling rotors sliced off four fingers. "They were dispersed over a radius of more than 100 meters (yards)," Lopez said, adding the operation to reattach the fingers required 14 hours. Abarca had only recently joined the popular teen group which has gone through several changes of membership since it was formed in the mid-1980s. |

On the bright side, at least he only raised his hand to wave and didn't jump for joy... |

I have a twisted sense of humor, but theres just something mildly amusing about fingers being scattered over a 100m radius.. I mean, its only funny until someone gets hurt. Then it gets hilarious! |
Some people are just too stupid for their own good.Maybe now he will sue the helicopter company for not telling him that the rotors could cut off his hand.
