Belgian Amusement Rides Are Dangerous

Standard de Liege youngsters Dieumerci Mbokani and Steven Defour went to a local fair to enjoy the amusement parks as young athletes with plenty of time on their hands are apt to do, and for some reason it was taped. Everything’s butterflies and cupcakes and good times until Dieumerci leans over to Steven and the bar comes down, trapping him underneath while Steven unsuccessfully attempts to gather himself. All caught on video. (He’s all better now, and he even scored the lone goal in today’s 1-0 win over Sevilla.)

There’s a lesson to be learned for young athletes here: sit at home, shut your curtains and do absolutely nothing. Welcome to the YouTube age. (And yes, a Scouser – red or blue, doesn’t matter – was definitely behind this.)
