A 19st rugby player suffered a stroke while training - and discovered when he woke up that he was gay.
Chris Birch, 26, had proposed to his girlfriend and worked in a bank when he suffered a freak accident in the gym.
The rugby-loving Welshman was trying to impress his friends with a back flip but broke his neck and suffered a stroke.
He was taken to the Royal Gwent hospital where his girlfriend and family waited for news - but said: 'I was gay when I woke up and I still am.'
His friends were stunned by the dramatic changes to his personality, especially his change in sexuality.
Chris said: 'It sounds strange but when I came round I immediately felt different.
'I wasn't interested in women any more. I was definitely gay.
'I had never been attracted to a man before - I'd never even had any gay friends. But I didn't care about who I was before, I had to be true to my feelings.'
Before the accident Chris was planning on settling down with his girlfriend, although they were having a break from each other at the time of his accident.
He worked in a bank and spent his weekends watching sport and drinking beer with his rugby friends.
But after the stroke he found he was no longer interested in sport and had little in common with his old friends.
He quit his job to become a hairdresser and started dating a man he met at a club night.
Chris, of Ystrad Mynach, south Wales, said: 'Suddenly, I hated everything about my old life. I didn't get on with my friends, I hated sport and found my job boring.
'I started to take more pride in my appearance, bleached my hair and started working out.
'I went from a 19st skinhead to a 11st preened man.
etc, etc...
looks like KC Scott may have an excuse after all...

I'm not going to put it up for public consumption, though it is tempting given your level of douchbaggery over the years.
Whoever you pissed off at .net or wherever went to some effort to send a few links including your Rip Taylor impersonation.
If you haven't learned from Radio Fan or AP, you should use some common sense when you start sharing shit with idiots (skanks?) from these boards
There's only one picture of me ever put up on any of the message boards: My 7th grade school picture. If you think there's anything you can do with that, go ahead and knock yourself out, KC Sandusky

And I would definitely not call The Buzzer an internet skank

Looks like LK_Pick's eye has healed up reasonably well

I agree. It also looks like she's lost a lot of weight, found a razor for the facial hair and has improved her KC fashion appearance in her new clothing.
