    Pfieew, man..

    I suppose one would've to be real snappy to let the handle bars go in the time it takes between 40+ degrees lean down to 90 degrees..

    Also I dunno about ur arm story to ur wife man, I wouldn't have called mine and kept it all a not so shocking surprise till it's all under white (+ a bit of red) bandages..

    Still, interesting story, thanks for sharing.

    This local hospital denies u for that, what happens when u need a bigger part stitched back, wtf?

    I had my own experience with a hand surgeon in China, St Luke hospital in Changning..

    I opened a bottle of beer with another one, they were just out of the freezer, one broke in bevel and took off a chunk of meat from the thumb base till middle of the wrist, I looked for it on the ground but couldn't find, my bros found it the next day in the bottle, lol..

    The guy did a great job, 1st stitch in the tendon which was hit but still holding, then over 30 stitches in 3 successive lines to close the gap, today both hands have the same shape, wonder how..

    I talked with another hand surgeon who was following my case in Huashan (insurance paid), she told me they have over 2 dozen of them hand specialists in Huashan, as everyday local workers show up with exotic types of hand injury, so they have indeed huge experience here..

    That is also a nice one :-(.

    The local hospital denied me, I guess they were too afraid to even start it.
    You know, foreigner, dressed in leathers, blood all over by that time, I don't know.
    It ended up they shoved al kind of papers under my nose to be signed, as that was the most important.
    I returned the favor to chop it with my missing finger ... like blood brothers.

    I remember I needed to go back to the surgeon Mr. Zhang in the Huashan Hospital once a day for the first 10 days.
    Every appointment he was late, every appointment he excused himself that he had yet an other horrible thing to repair.
    He did up to the shoulder, and there were more then fingertops to be stitched back.

    He also told me he went to Scandinavia for teaching every year for a month, as surgeons there got one such experience in a year max.
    Yeah, definitely; loose a limb, do it in China.

    Thought that, if later telling her it was actually only a top of a finger, things should be not too stressful.... I am still waiting for forgiveness, even after almost 5 years ...
    Wow, not sure if that was a good idea. Funny, but not nice.

    What kind of glove did you wear? I wonder that it is ruptured like that...

    I still think the glove / fingertop was flattened between the 200kg of falling bike's bar end, and the tarmac.
    I don't think an other glove should have made any difference in this case.
