Man Sticks Pool Cue Into Friend's Ass, Almost Kills Him
A man rammed a pool cue into the rectum of a drunken friend with such force it snapped off, leaving 31 centimetres stuck inside his bowel. 
The 21-year-old Roofer Matthew Noel Triffett who pleaded guilty to a charge of grievous bodily harm, was given a six-month jail sentence.
Justice Ewan Crawford said: "It was a criminally reckless act, but a momentary one, committed stupidly by a very drunk man who thought it funny at the time, without real malevolence for the complainant."
The court was told Triffett had a number of drinks to celebrate the birthday of one of two friends with him at the time.
Justice Crawford said the trio ended up at a tavern where the victim crashed to the floor with his buttocks exposed while his friend ran around the pub in the nude.
He said Triffett had used considerable force to thrust the cue into the man's anus because it snapped in two.
"What he did excites disgust and horror," Crawford said.
He said Triffett thought it was a big joke until the full extent of what he had done was revealed.
In crippling pain, the victim went home and removed the cue from his rectum.
Unable to tolerate the agony any longer, he went to Royal Hobart Hospital three days later and underwent immediate surgery for a perforated colon.
His body waste had been emptying into his body cavity, which could have killed him.
