This guy fell backwards onto a cactus after a few drinks while playing a round of golf at a desert course. It took paramedics over three hours to remove the cactus before he could get into an ambulance and go to the hospital.
Thanks Gene

“Can someone please get these little pricks off me?”
That’s what happens when you drink and drive.
Hah, he got multiple holes in one.
If you get drunk and fall onto cactus,you get this prickly sensation all over…Weird.
Taylormade costume.
Looks like no one wants to touch him.
Oddly, after getting out of the hospital he immediately went to the nearest barb for a prick-me-up.
What a sticky situation.
Oh, ouch! This is cholla cactus, which has barbed hooks and thus is not simple to extract.
Eureka! My next Halloween costume, but I think I will use fake cacti.
Betcha he’s got more pricks sticking in him than out of him. Just saying…
Can’t fix “stupid.”
truculent succulent
Hmnnn that is interesting… Tiger Woods’ shorter fatter brother is a paramedic.
Over three hours? Expedite this sucker next time, fellas!
Just take some salad tongs, grab a cactus arm and yank it off the guy. Can’t be more painful than falling on a cactus. Besides, he’s already half sedated.
How would Tiger handle all those pricks?
He’d just play more holes!
I wonder, exactly how much that hurts?? A whole lot, or lots of little hurt…or what?? Seriously…how does a body react to a massive bunch of tiny little punctures??
Looks like it was photoshopped.
WOW.
How is it that he hasn’t fallen to the ground in pain?
can’t touch dis

¿que paso?
Strangely enough, this happened to me, on a much smaller scale. I was golfing in Arizona and backed into a cactus accidentally while looking for a lost golf ball. It latched onto my ankle, and when two other people tried to get it off it stuck to their fingers, too. Eventually they used their golf clubs to pry it off me and my ankle was crusted with blood. The teddybear cactus is the most mis-named plant on earth, being ridiculously far from cuddly.
When teenager Peter Parker was bitten by a radioactive piece of Velcro…
Actually, they could have got him to the ER in 15 minutes, but they were having a good time laughing at him.
Dmitry – how no one made mention of your comment blows my mind. that’s hysterical – and oddly accurate. lol
Many years ago, I did a TV spot on Channel 3, Phoenix. The camera man threw these at me safely as I had a built in cardboard sleeve inside my dungarees. This sleeve kept me safe. As a survival demo, we easily removed these burrs with a POCKET COMB….Slide comb from top one, under needles and pull straight out with a quick motion. Always carry a pocket comb as a survival tool Unfortunately, the pain is even greater coming out then going in. Pood Guy! Linda
stupid should hurt
where is this golf course ? I want to send someone I know free tickets for a couple of rounds of golf 😉
@Booger It must be like Accupuncture.
This dude is holy.
I’ve stepped on a Teddy Bear Cholla as a kid and the barbed spines went through my BOOT into my foot and it hurt REALLY BADLY…so it’s not just “lot’s of little pricks” it’s HELL that dude’s in. After his adrenaline wears off, he’ll be wishing for some morphine for sure.
when i was a kid a fall into a big cactus butt first and it took like an hour to take the pricks/needles out,
Does anyone have a good idea on how to remove these barbs from a dog? We very foolishly let our dog loose not knowing that she could be injured. One of the burrs stuck to her front leg which she tried to bite off causing some stickers to stick to her lips and one in her tongue. We got most of them out of her leg, but the lip and tongue still have a couple. Any ideas?
