A US man has filed a lawsuit against the owner of a strip club after being injured by a dancer's shoe at the premises.
Charles Privette, 35, was visiting the Booby Trap club in Pompano Beach, Florida, when a performer's shoe flew off and smashed a mirrored ceiling, causing both the shoe and glass to hit him.
Privette is now seeking $15,000 in damages with the suit, which claims that the employee "failed to perform her routine in a reasonably safe manner".
The man's attorney added that he had suffered a small cut to his eyebrow, headaches and nose bleeds since making the ill-fated strip club visit in January.
Booby Trap's manager George Gettinger confirmed that paramedics had been called following the incident, but insisted that Privette's injuries had been minor.
He said: "A quote from the paramedics was, 'I can't believe you even called us for this'."
:rotfl: This just makes me laugh
