The dude is super lucky to be alive. I bet they called 911 seconds after starting the HF enema. Add that to the list of the stupid things people have done on booger sugar. 5 months later he needed more surgery because he had more problems pooping.

"This case demonstrates that a hydrofluoric acid enema can cause fulminant acute colitis and chronic colonic strictures."

Knowing what little I know of HF, the administration of a concentrated HF enema shouldn't be survivable. It binds to the calcium in your blood and quickly stops the heart.

Something smells fishy here.
