Brit woman’s breast implant bursts after she is shot with paintball

A British woman with fake boobs has been left in agony when one implant exploded after she was shot in the chest with a paintball.
The 26-year-old’s soft gel implant ruptured under her skin when the ball hit her breast at 190mph while playing the colourful sport at Paintzone Paintball Park near Croydon, South London.
The bizarre injury is thought to be the first of its kind.
At first the woman thought she had just suffered a painful bruise. But when she went to see a doctor a few days later, he revealed the force of the impact had torn the implant.
“Part of the fun of paintball is that it hurts a bit when you get shot but in all the years we’ve been going we’ve never seen an incident like this,” the Sun quoted a spokesman for UK Paintball, who run the Paintzone Paintball Park, as saying.
“It came as a real surprise to hear that a woman had her implant burst at one of our centres,” the spokesman stated.
In future, the spokesman said, women with fake boobs will be given extra padding to prevent similar injuries.
Douglas McGeorge, the former president of the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons, said the bizarre injury could cost the woman 3,000 pounds.
“This is very, very unusual and this woman was very unlucky. I imagine she was quite slim because the paintball would have had to pierce the skin to rupture the implant.
“I have heard some odd stories over the years but this is one of the strangest.
