EuroVision: This is Only a Test

No, this is not the most recent victim of a Marco Materazzi studs-up challenge.
It’s actually a “mock injury victim” in a disaster simulation/”security excercise” that took place yesterday in preparation for Euro 2008 at Stade de Suisse Wankdorf (thanks for the correction, Adrian) stadium in Bern, Switzerland.
I think the pseudo-gaping wound with fake blood is an especially nice touch.

Can I just mention that it is ‘Stade de Suisse Wankdorf’. It’s kind of important to the supporters of the club home team.
