You are running a marathon and coming first..nearing the finish line..you fall down a
manhole and break your legs. Spend five days eating
vermin and shivering coldly before anyone finds you. You came last, you're crippled, the doctors
amputate your arms because of
frostbite, there was a problem with an infection in your neck as you gashed it open on a nail when you fell, susan has been sleeping with your brother...
Still, at least you tried your best.
