A Japanese biker failed to notice his leg had been severed below the knee when he hit a safety barrier, and rode on for 2km, leaving a friend to pick up the limb.

The 54-year-old office worker was out on his motorcycle with a group of friends in the city of Hamamatsu, west of Tokyo, yesterday, when he was unable to negotiate a curve in the road and bumped into the central barrier, the Mainichi Shimbun said.

He felt excruciating pain, but did not notice that his right leg was missing until he stopped at the next junction, the paper quoted local police as saying.

The man and his leg were taken to hospital, but the limb had been crushed in the collision, the paper said.

See, these are the thing I love to read about. It's a little funny but you don't know if you should laugh.

It's never good when someone loses a leg but to not notice you only have one!

It has begun. The Japanese are getting dumber. Sweet.

Poor guy...but I suppose this story is comical...in a twisted, dark sort of way.

Hmm. That's gotta suck. Looking down and realizing your leg is missing. Bad day, my friend -- bad day.
