okay, this may seem really wierd but in this one movie (it was on t.v. the other day)there was this vanity table and the top opened and there was a mirror and storage. im guessing the mirror weight about 5ish pounds. okay so this girl was sitting there and the top came down on about the middle of her arm (between her wrist and her elbow) and she broke her arm (she slamed the top down on purpose) so to the point...could she have really broken her arm that way? just wondering because it seemed fake which i kno it was but could it have happened in real life?

But like you said, it was just a movie. Maybe the director should've found a vanity with a heavier-looking mirror to make it more convincing! =] [ Jeanne's advice column | Ask Jeanne A Question ]
