A burly 120.6kg rugby player in Wales, UK, suffered a stroke while training - and woke up gay.
Chris Birch, 26, was straight and engaged when the freak accident switched off his affection for the opposite sex.
The Welshman was showing off to pals when he attempted a back flip but ended up breaking his neck.
He endured a stroke during the ordeal and was rushed to hospital where his family – including his fiancée – waited anxiously for news.
But when he came round he fancied guys instead of girls. He said: "I was gay when I woke up and I still am."
