    The event makes horrible enough reading without macabre instructions on where to see it; there’s no way I will touch that video. I’m glad the wounds were superficial enough that Mr. Kolker could return home after treatment.

  • Jack says:

    So thankful you provided us with a video of an attempted murder. Right next to a clickbait headline about suicide. Classy.

  • Hans-Dieter Glaubke says:

    Voyeurism?

  • Graham Clarke says:

    There are more than enough other venues to view this type of video. Slipped Disc is not one of them.
