A female cyclist’s underwire bra may have saved her from life-threatening injuries after a hunter accidentally shot her. The 41-year-old tourist was riding across a field with her husband when she unknowingly rolled into a boar hunt, German newspaper Gadebusch-Rehnaer reported Friday. During a break, the woman felt a sudden sharp pain in her chest, soon realizing the underwire from her bra deflected a bullet.
The couple immediately alerted the alleged shooter of the accident after he was spotted at a neighboring farm. “Those in charge of the hunt broke it up straight away” area police spokesperson Andre Fa
This isn’t the first report of the undergarment blocking a potentially deadly bullet. In Feb., a Brazilian woman’s life was saved when her black underwire bra stopped a stray round from hitting her in the heart. “It was not just the bra wiring, which softened [it] a little,” she told reporters, “but God who saved me.”
