Getty Images Here’s the latest news from Whyteleafe, a small community south of London. A 26-year-old woman participating in a paintball league is recovering after her breast implant burst when she was shot in the chest. Medic!
The 26-year-old’s soft gel implant ruptured under her skin when the ball hit her breast at 190mph, reports The Sun.
It’s believed to the first time such an injury has happened in Britain.
I should hope so.
It caused UK Paintball, which operates more than 50 facilities nationwide, to insist that women with breast implants wear extra chest protection.
The woman didn’t know the extent of the damage until “a few days later,’ a UK Paintball rep told The Sun. Money quote:
“It’s worth remembering that having bigger breasts will make you an easier target for your enemies.”
