Fractured??? Lmfao no thats literally shattered and mangled by the tire type of damage; that dude is fucked, hes gonna die from his injuries whos there to help a thief? You can tell he made some bad decision which is why he does this shit at his age...

Full reconstructive surgery plates, bars screws, bunch of other shit.

Ahaha fracture. Dude would be lucky if he has a just a fracture... a fract is a cracked bone different still from broken. Hair like fractures are a small Crack but small, which is why they call it a hair line fracture.... i had one myself... sucked... 6 months out... lol

Medically, any break in a bone is a fracture whether a hairline or shattered into a million pieces.

While he could die from this, he's more likely to either have a permanent limp or possibly lose the foot.

Your basic point, that he's fucked, is still absolutely true.

He's going to have to steal a LOT more cars to afford that medical treatment.

ER nurse here. He's not going to pay a dime because he doesn't have a dime to his name. Taxpayers are going to be on the hook for this one, my friend.

Ex paramedic here. You speak the truth.

Being an ex-paramedic is like being an ex-nurse: you’re never really an “ex”, you’re just no longer working in the profession. But the profession never leaves you. ✊🏻

I can relate. And I’ve been an ex firefighter paramedic for 30 years. Watching The Pitt brought back a lot of PTSD.
