Injured man wins damages for sex overdrive

LONDON (Reuters) - A devout Christian who said an accident at work boosted his libido and wrecked his marriage as he turned to prostitutes and pornography was awarded more than 3 million pounds ($5.89 million) in damages Tuesday.

Stephen Tame, 29, from Suffolk, suffered severe head injuries in a fall, transforming him from a loyal newlywed into a "disinhibited" character who had two affairs.

He was in a coma for two months after falling from a gantry while working at a bicycle warehouse shortly after his marriage in January 2002. Doctors said it was a miracle he survived.

Awarding him 3.1 million pounds in compensation at London's High Court, Judge Michael Harris said: "His life and the life of his young wife were shattered."

His former employer, Professional Cycle Marketing, of Essex, had argued through their lawyers that his injuries were not as bad as suggested in court.

-HECK!

It's the fault of his WORK because he turned to prostitutes? PLEASE!!!
That is absolute bullocks. I can't believe he was awarded that money.

People are so stupid. How did he get this money? I can't believe this. The things lawyers will do for money! He actually managed to get paid for being a man-whore, and blamed his actions on his WORK? Someone give me the B.S. card so I can shove it down this guy's throat.

random story!

That such garbage. Now he's probably wasting that money on more prostitutes.

that's the biggest scam i've ever heard of. what court would actually side with him! he falls and suddenly turns into a walking hard on? i don't buy it.
