Many times people pat each other on the back while talking in friendship. You might have never thought how heavy this joke can be on someone, but the recent news will force you to think. The matter is from Zhejiang province of China where a woman named Zheng has made a shocking claim. Zheng, who works as a security guard at a metro station, told a TV channel that last year her life was ruined due to the actions of one of her colleagues.
pat on the back to wake you up
She was reportedly resting with her head on her desk during her afternoon break when a male colleague named Lu tapped her on the back to wake her up. Zheng recalls that she felt an electric shock before her arms and neck went numb. He claims that in the picture taken by another colleague, the marks of five fingers are clearly visible on his back. After this, Zheng’s condition deteriorated to such an extent that she could not work for a year and now she feels that Lu should compensate her financially.
‘Spinal disc bulged’
When Zheng began complaining, Lu allegedly gave her 3,000 yuan ($400) on the condition that she would not take any legal action against him. She then agreed, but when her condition did not improve even after a month, she went to the hospital where doctors told her that she had a bulging disc in her spine and advised her to take rest for a few weeks. . But the situation was such that she remained missing from work for an entire year.
‘Must have used kung fu techniques’
Over time, Zheng learned that when Lu slapped him, he used a kung fu technique, known as the ‘Iron Sand Palm’ or simply the ‘Iron Palm’, as Lu had always practiced the martial art. Claimed to practice. This technique, taught in many martial arts schools in China, is apparently used to train practitioners to deliver powerful blows by punching a canvas bag filled with sand.
Instead of sympathy, people made fun
Earlier this year, Zheng bluntly told Lu that she wanted 40,000 yuan (US$5,500) as compensation for all her medical bills and lost income due to being unable to work, but he refused and Broke contact with him completely. With no other option, Zheng decided to take his story to the media. Unfortunately, he did not get much sympathy here, instead most people kept making fun of his weakness.
