Rugby League player who broke arm on live TV says he’d do it again

If you were fortunate/unfortunate enough to read about Ben Ross, the Australian rugby league player who broke his arm in an arm wrestle for charity, you’ll be happy to hear he wants to do it all over again!

‘It was a complete accident, we were doing it for a great cause and to try and get awareness for people and if you said its going to happen again I’d still do it,” Ross said.

Please, tell us more!

“It is probably the most painful thing I’ve ever experienced. To have your bones at different levels and your muscles spasming for 40-minutes, before getting into an ambulance, it’s something that I don’t wish on anyone.”

Sounds neat! Good on you, Ross, can’t wait to see you star in the next Mad Max!
