Former Sen. Harry Reid says exercise device caused career-ending injuries; device maker disputes claims

By Gerren Keith Gaynor | Fox News

Was former U.S. Sen. Harry Reid a victim of a faulty exercise device -- or of his own failure to learn how to use it properly?

That's what a jury will decide in a trial now underway in Nevada over Reid's lawsuit, in which he claims he took a nasty fall when a TheraBand exercise device slipped from his hands in January 2015.

”I hurt myself really bad,” Reid, 79, who now uses a wheelchair, testified Thursday. “I just knew that I was hurt, and I needed to get some help.”

Reid is blind in his right eye since the accident, which he blamed on an “unreasonably dangerous” elastic physical resistance band.

The exercise machine might have made Harry fall, but it was Harry's brother who left his fist there where Harry's eye would hit it.

Exactly.

The maker of the exercise device should donate one, free of charge, to Adam Schiff.

I'd love to read the depositions in this case. They must be hilarious.  Will Harry's brother testify?
