Arms shouldn’t bend that way.
Barcelona’s Carles Puyol suffered a gruesome injury after falling very awkwardly on his arm during the Spanish giant’s Champions League win against Benfica on Tuesday. If you’re squeamish, I’d suggest skipping this one.
A huge blow for Barcelona, who got the win but will have to be without their captain until he recovers from what appears to be a pretty serious arm injury.
Fans across the globe tweeted about the sickening fall, and even US women’s national team star Alex Morgan chimed in.
Thanks @abbywambach for showing me Puyols fall on YouTube. Please excuse me while I go throw up. #horriblefall #fcbarcelona #nobueno

We agree, Alex. That made us a little sick too.
