Feb 22 2009Office Chair Explodes, Sending Shrapnel Into Boy's Rear, Killing Him

blue chair of death.jpg

In today's sad story, a 14-year old boy in China allegedly bled to death after the compressed gas canister used to raise and lower his office chair exploded, launching a barrage of shrapnel into his b-hole. Now I hate to start wildly speculating who's at fault here, but it's obviously Microsoft. BCOD, folks.

Hit the jump for a picture of the underside of the chair.

FIRST #1

How the hell did that happen? I don't think I like my office chair anymore.
I mean, does this sort of thing happen often?

ahaha the 2nd and 3rd commenters FAIL!

OMG! :(

I am never sitting again.

That seems like such a painful and humiliating way to die.

and on the chairs label it reads - Made in China

w00t! got my story up on a sunday! :D

o and btw look at the second pic... its goatse!!

@ # 10

omg you sick bastard :D

I am gay

Wow. Id expect more blood from that. considering the size of the hole. But if this is true, that is a frightful and awful way to die, bleeding out is bad enough... Out of the anus is a whole another level of "oh F*ck"

Ow! Goes and buys body armor for the bottom of my comp chair

OOOO NO!

was the guy fat or a burrito eater? I'd love to know what could have caused it so it will NEVER HAPPEN TO ME! AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

yeah this has to be a fake theres not a drop of blood anywhere...if his ass was blown apart enough for him to bleed out then the chair would be soaked with gore

Maybe it's been as quick as a shark dismembering : blood comes a little later, like if the body did not get the info. He may as well have been sent far away by the gas tank until it burst into his body. Maybe he hit is head first on the concrete and fell unconscious, and only after did the tank kill him. Or may be... it's all a big fake.

Perhaps someone was trying out butt secks, but failed.

i think the barrage stuck in hes @ss when they pulled it out he die .... maybe not the bleeding killed him its being humiliated

wow. what a way to go.

Talk about being boned to death...
this poor kid was sodomized by an office chair.
What a sad way to die.

@10 is it wrong that i seen the same thing. goatse!!! its everywere

Am I the first to say it looks very fake?

Wow! as Im sitting in my office chair.... that sucks major balls!

Is it just me.... or is everything more prone to blow up in Asia....?

If this is real my heart goes out to the family of the kid.

However! Who would have a vested interest in preventing the usage of office chairs as well as computers and the internet? Who would being willing to take staged photographs to provoke fear to control people?

In recent years China has seen a massive increase in economic growth due in large part to economic reforms and the Government not being so backwards and stuff. However there is a downside to this. In recent years more and more Chinese have been introduced to fried fatty foods that are not only cheap but delicious... so delicious.

This has led to a rise in obesity in China! As a child my parents would tell me not to waste my food because people in China were starving. That always upset me and made me not want to waste. Thankfully this is no longer the case for a large and growing number of Chinese.

Internet usage in China has also spiked as well as the popularity of online video games. World of Warcraft's subscription base has a very large number of Chinese players, most of which are children and young adults.

Compounded with the effects of cheap, deep fried, fatty, delicious, awesome foods, more disposable income, increased access to the Internet as well as addictive online games, China's government may have decided to try to stage a death. Hoping to scare kids into going outside and playing and not staying inside all day eating junk and playing on the computer. Sounds like something the Chinese government would do.

Don't look at me like that... they have a mobile Death Buses! No your the crazy one... yes I'm sure. No I don't want to go to a water park... because it's February how bout that? ... Well fine let's just agree to disagree.

Conspiracy Theory 100% Complete . . .

@16
of course its fake, i mean why wouldnt he stay sat in the chair ( that just blew up) and bleed to death on it just so you could be satisfied that someone died.
douche!!!

This is freakin scary. I don't want to sit on a chair ever again.

This reminds me of a scene in the movie Never Back Down where Max backed the rear of his car into a jet engine. It became one of the best stunts ever.

u know that everyone that reads this feels uneasy sitting in their desk chair afterwards.....no she'd never do that to me......would she?.....owell if it does happen twinkies are spongy and might stop the bleeding

Wow... what a fake load of crap... Like the exploding cell phone sort of fake.

Its not microsoft!!! its team rocket!!! their always after me lucky charms!!

+1 to the goatse!

The chinese aren't that bright anyway .. what do you expect?

damn corrupt chinese! first their milk formula now thier office chairs? this is what happens when a country wants to produce cheap products that go unchecked.

You sure his dog didn't just dig it out?

@8 Do the chinease even use products "made in china"? or are they too afraid that their own products might kill them?

"Justin" is a massive cretin.

Oh hurt
thank god it's not from my factory
but it's not happened a lot , so don't worry , i guess ..

that is awesomely fncked up.

FAKE!!!!

This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake because the shadow's are all wrong.

This is exactly liek that scene in the movie Never BAck Down where Max Baja and several others in a submarine were shrunk to a microscopic size in order to go inside a guy to save his life. Unfortunately there were problems and they almost died inside of him..

Bullshit, no blood...next post...

follow the links back and try to find something resembling a legitimate news source. I got as far as something that looked like a "page not found" in Japanese.

viral marketing for the new Goatse movie imo.

I'm never sitting on a spinny chair ever again. I'll just sit on my brother. But then again, he may pull out a gun and shoot my rear end out of anger...

there cant be a gas cylinder in an office chair, i thought they used a mechanical/hydraulic thing to raise and lower it. this might be fake, but im not sure.

dude! im just sitting here on my gas lift chair while im reading this and now im scared to move for fear of my chair exploding in my anus!!!

If I die lounging, so be it. As long as everyone realizes that it was the only time something exploded into my asshole, I'm good.

FAIL!! This post fails on so many levels. Who the hell cares!?

This is just like that time when the tribbles took over the bridge and the captain got all pissy and sat down on the chair in a huff. His fat ass put too much pressure on the seating mount and the entire ship veered off course and crashed into an asteriod. The force of the impact caused the compressed air cannister under the captains chair to explode and puncture the skull of a nearby starfleet trainee. The crew quickly dumped his carcass out through the nearest waste chute and sped away before the starfleet troopers could get a report.

Fake. The gas isn't that highly pressurized, not enough to explode and actually kill a human. Besides, this story is from China. Like a whole lot of other faked stories.

On a side note, I'm sure everyone grimaced upon first reading this.

'Rectum'? It bloody killed 'um!

I have no issue communicating without the use of profanity. Quite frankly, the english language offers much more colorful adjectives. The point being made is simply that in this country, where this blog is hosted, we have freedom of speech. The same freedom of speech that would protect this blogger (GW) in court. I find it rather disingenuous of him to post NSFW content and genitalia jokes, then censor our comments about them.

I will be sitting in my office chair a bit uneasily for the next hour or so...

WOW. How do you go about telling the family that there son died when his ass was ripped off by an exploding chair?

Why is everyone so afraid to sit on their chairs now? Last I checked my chair and 99% of everyone else's didn't have some sort of compressed air canister underneath it.

There's no blood because the force could have pushed him off his chair and away...besides, the shrapnel caused INTERNAL bleeding. All of that stuff wouldn't start dripping down until later which would probably be when he's rolling around in agony or at the emergency room.

@egg Not to mention that the hole is bigger on the bottom than it is on the top. Also if the base was to have really blown up, why is it in one piece. The bracket on the seat showing no ill effect that would suggest it blowing up. I think it's a fraud.

I should be in this photo. Unless it's fake.

I'm next, I'm next!

Rectum!?! Damn near killed 'em!

China has the roving execution buses, but for those who are unable to pay the electric chair bill they have the exploding butt plug chair. His organs were harvested and sold to starving cannibals in the amazon basin shortly thereafter. Yummy

Im so evil, but I found this hilarious

Someone on the site is advertising for " R i c h M a t c h M a k i n g . C 0 M ", I have just read the news on the rich women seeking soulmate club that "R i c h M a t c h M a k i n g . C 0 M " advertisers you need to stop! This is a controvercial site for high quality singles!!

lets forget for a second that his ass was ripped open by chair schrapnel. he's 14. and works in an office. um. ? lol

Talk about getting ripped a new one....

i thing the guy ated too much beans and his ass exploded hurting the seat.. i hope my seat doesn't explode in my ass

ill never sit on an office chair in china. ever.


One less china man !

yay! now there's only 999,000,000 left to go! lets make sure they keep sitting on their chairs!

Who cares, it was probably just some butt-hurt wowfag anyway.

Was I the only one that thought the underside of the chair looked like goatse?

Hey #66 do you have Erectile Dysfunction too? Damn ED fags.
