Some cruel sod gave John Marsh that piece to read during the 11 o'clock news bulletin on Radio 2 this morning; he was coping quite well up until he had to read out the name of the firework, at which point he started to crack...
... then he lost it completely in the middle of the next item, which was about education officials in Pakistan turning up to a school and discovering it was actually full of chickens.
I wonder how they are so sure that he did it to himself? Male pride is often such that they would admit to anything other than weakness. Sounds like 'I tripped, no one pushed me' to me. *&(
I'd expect someone to acquire a few other injuries along the way if they were being forced into it. So yes, it's possible that he was forced, but I think there's a good chance that paramedics would be able to guess too even if he was lying about it...
