A pig appears to have got the ultimate revenge at a Hong Kong slaughterhouse — knocking over and killing a butcher with the cleaver about to be used on him.

Police told CNN that the pig had been shot with an electric stun gun at the Sheung Shui Slaughterhouse on Friday when it suddenly woke and pounced on a 61-year-old worker.

The swine knocked over his would-be slaughterer — who seemingly dropped his 15-inch meat cleaver onto his own foot.

Another worker found the butcher — named by local media as Cai — with the cleaver in his hand and his left foot bleeding profusely from the wound, police said.

He was rushed by ambulance to a local hospital, but was pronounced

There’s a really good joke in there somewhere ... I’m counting on you FReepers to find it 😆. That being said, sorry for the guy’s family, you wouldn’t expect an occupation like that to be dangerous in that way.

I think back in 2013 there was a mobster in Italy who fed a rival to pigs to be eaten alive. People who think pigs are cute should think again.

Sometimes you bring home the bacon. Sometimes the bacon brings you home.

Can someone actually die from blood loss resulting from a foor injury like that? Was that the cause of death or something else?

I think you can die from just about anything.

I think karma implies that he was doing something wrong, and there’s nothing wrong with bacon.

“I think karma implies that he was doing something wrong, and there’s nothing wrong with bacon.”

Tell that to the pig.

Yup. I had heard a story of a man who kept a pig as a pet in his basement. He fell down the stairs, was knocked out cold, and his pig ate him alive. They are pigs,after all.

My friend was offered a job at a slaughterhouse

His job would have been to remove and collect all the innards and organs.

While the pay was decent, we both agreed the job would be absolutely Offal.
