Breast implants are easy target when paintballing

A woman from South London is now on the mend after experiencing a ruptured breast implant during a paintball match… marking what is believed to be the first such injury recorded in Britain.

The unusual injury, which occurred last weekend, prompted UK Paintball… a company operating over 50 venues across the UK… to require that women with breast implants don additional chest protection, as reported by the Croydon Guardian.

Furthermore, the standard indemnity form provided by the company now informs patrons that paintballs… which are capsules filled with dye launched from gas-powered guns in the game… have the potential to harm breast implants.

While playing paintball in Whyteleafe, South London, the 26-year-old encountered the incident.

A spokesperson from UK Paintball commented to the newspaper, “Part of the thrill of paintball is that it stings a little when you get hit, but throughout the years of our operations, we have never witnessed a case like this.

“This event has truly been an eye-opener, and nobody should ever feel anxious about their safety while playing paintball.

“Nonetheless, it is important to note that larger breasts might render you a more conspicuous target for your opponents.”
