Ola Brunkert, ABBA drummer

QuoteBrunkert hit his head against a glass door in his dining room, shattering the glass and cutting himself in the neck. He managed to wrap a towel around his neck and left the house to seek help, but collapsed in the garden.

I honestly thought Clarke had passed a few years ago. I guess there will be a few Sri Lankan houseboys out of work now.
