WOMAN ATTACKED BY YAK ON EVEREST

A Welsh woman hiking to a base camp on Mount Everest was savagely gored by a yak while FaceTiming her family. Emma Keen, 42, was attacked in the village of Tengboche, Nepal. As she described it, “I was speaking to my brother and his wife showing them the yak on FaceTime. Without warning I could hear the hoofs pounding towards me, a sharp stabbing pain in the top of my leg. It threw me up in the air around and I landed back down with a thud.” The yak’s horn had gone through Emma’s leg, leaving a big hole in her leggings and blood running down her leg. She was airlifted to a hospital for stitches before rejoining the group to complete the last part of the trek on horseback.
* Mt. Everest is about the worst place for a Big Yak Attack.
* The yak was mad ’cause she was FaceTiming it when it was having a really bad hair day.
* Yak horn? A yak rack?
* “You guys go ahead and climb Mt. Everest while I go get stitches. I’ll catch up.”
* Oh, give it a rest, lady! All you do it yak, yak,yak.
