The Key stock tore up my skin a bit and the bones and ligaments got rearranged. My Knee joint was torsioned out of alignment but all went back into place OK. Amazingly, nothing was broken.
A couple of brave guys pulled and twisted. Got the anatomy right. No major bleeding. I walk funny now but that should pass in a week or two.
I'm extremely lucky given the stupidity involved.
Thanks for the thoughts John.
