1. That sounds like something a group of dads made up to stop their kids fucking around with the Calor Gas.

2. Not sure if it’s paywalled but basically a boy in Darndale injured himself in a gas canister explosion, showing up at the Mater Hospital late on Thursday with most of his hand missing. The hand will undergo DNA testing to confirm.

3. I would investigate the bird first, I’d say he had a hand in it

4. Jesus, that’s grim.

5. Heard it was the fast gas bottles they have these days

6. Fuck the parents

7. Thumbs up to whoever found it.

   Giving two fingers to the useless gardai.

8. He won’t do that again.

9. I was going to make a joke involving clapping, for a round of applause et cetera.

   But this story is too grim.

10. Was it a Nos canister!? Grim.

11. Christ that’s dark.

12. What will happen to the hand after the investigation has run its course? Will it be returned to the boy?

13. ‘A BIRD’ yeah……right

14. That’s really grim. It’s somehow worse than the sea body theory.

15. Horrific

16. ITT- people arguing the 12 year old deserved their injuries because they’re from Darndale, and therefore up to no good.

17. Horrible thing to happen to anyone, and I remember doing stupid things as a kid his age as well. This could happen any kid from any walk of life when they are in a group.

18. the agony of that

19. Jesus that’s horrible.

20. Is he all right?

21. WTF..!! Fucken hell.

22. You’ve got to hand it to the writers… did not see that end coming.

23. Some people on this thread are obviously sick in the head. What disgusting ‘smart’ comments… We’re talking about a 12 year old CHILD here FFS. Who knows the circumstances in this horrific case?? He could have been targeted by bullies. I just hope the poor kid pulls through x

24. 

25. I thought it said the hand was badly decomposed.

26. Terrible story. Enough awfulness has already happened around primary schools or been witnessed by kids in the area including the 2020 incident mentioned in the article. Awful for the injured child but the only relief is the school being closed for midterm.

27. Poor kid.

28. Jesus that’s horrific.

29. That’s terrible. I might be soft but imo it’s a bit weird and cruel for people to be joking about this.

30. Dublin really reaching for the top tier of mad cities. Smashing Lidls with JCBs and hands ending up in school playgrounds. Putting the republic on the map, yup bros

31. Was it natural gas (eg flogas) or was it the big fastgas nos canisters?
