El Reg reports Brassiere belays boob-bound bullet, begetting bruised breastbone

[A] woman, who was cycling through Germany's least densely populated state of Mecklenberg-Western Pomerania, was saved by the wire lining of her bra, reported Germany's Gadebusch-Rehnaer Zeitung.

[A] couple had chosen to cycle across a field between the towns of Gadebusch and Kochelstor in Germany, when they unwittingly entered a conflict between man and beast.

Feeling a sudden pain in her chest, and glancing thither, she noted that she'd been struck by a rebounded shot and was saved only by the underwire of her brassiere, leaving her with but a bruise.

The minimalist technology involved surprised me. I expected something much more exotic.

    Don’t ride through somebody’s field while they’re hunting.

    from where to you come to the conclusion that they rode through someone's field?!

      From the, um, fine article summary? Did you read it?

        The fine summary only says they rode across a field between two towns. It doesn't say whether it was private property.

    I'm going to use this article to justify my position on wearing a bra while out cycling.
