07.07.08 BRIAN BOSWORTH DID SOMETHING RIGHT?
UPDATE: Photo changed. With Leather sincerely apologizes to Tom Thomson, the photographer who took the picture that you no longer see.
A Canadian woman is recovering in the hospital after her chance encounter with former Seahawks super-bust Brian Bosworth. But don't worry, as with his playing days in the NFL, the Boz wasn't the cause of bodily harm. Bosworth was driving to the Winnipeg airport after a completing a fishing trip when he saw emergency personnel surrounding a small SUV that had rolled several times, trapping the woman inside.
The paramedics had to use the jaws of life to get the woman out. Bosworth said they dismantled the vehicle completely. He was asked to take a piece of equipment down to the paramedics and once he got down to the victim, he said it was clear they needed more manpower.
"She was in shock and in pain and we couldn't really move her. Her legs were pinned. We had to cut the steering wheel off. She was screaming every time we moved her," Bosworth said. "It took five or six guys to get her into the ambulance. "
I have to say, I'm pretty stunned by this. There's actual photographic evidence of Brian Bosworth doing something good. Nothing in his pro football or cinema careers ever suggested such a thing was possible. This might as well be a picture of Sasquatch fellating the Loch Ness monster or the Tooth Fairy punching out Santa Claus or a unicorn doing a pegasus or Red Sox fans being cool.

BRIAN BOSWORTH DID SOMETHING RIGHT?
it was clear they needed more manpower
Judging by her arm I'm surprised they didn't need a forklift, a towtruck, and half of Canada.
Would it be tacky to point out one of the more obvious reasons why they had a hard time moving her?
Irony: The accident was caused by the empty beer can left inside the quarter panel of her GM SUV during Bosworth's days on the assembly line.
(Yeah, I remember the SI profile piece from when he was still at OU.)
So, no, then.
Said one of the paramedics on the scene "She was in bad shape, it was like Bo Jackson had run her ov….oh, sorry"
I have to assume Stone Cold said to the woman, "Imagine the future, 'cause you're not in it."
I call bullshit. If this was really Canadia, then where the fuck is all the snow? This has to be some sort of viral advertising campaign.
/goes back to huffing white out
And on a sidenote, it seems no suprise to me that they couldn't easily cut that Whale of a Woman out of a fucking SUV.
Pass the lard, eh?
Too bad he wasn't there to save Terrence Kiel.
Too soon my man, too soon.
Bosworth was driving to the Winnipeg airport after a completing a fishing trip when he saw emergency personnel surrounding a small SUV.
Wait a minute. Who in their right mind passes the scene of an accident already "surrounded" by paramedics and decides to stop and try to help?
Bosworth is clearly trying to slavage his public image at this point.
Jokes on him, his daughter makes me touch myself.
i hope someone told him that that is not what we call "hoggin"
Is this the start of his Save a Whale Foundation?
Don't be a hater.
He helped lift that behemoth with flip flops on.
Tony Mandarich couldn't put the camera down and help ?
