Is Ringing THAT Dangerous??!

The photo shows two ringers from my tower who both damaged their right foot within a few days of each other,thus forming what they chose to call ‘Club Foot’. They found that they could still enjoy ringing, even wearing a surgical boot, provided they added a little extra height to their other foot. But it also meant that I then had to convince members of the congregation that ringing wasn’t dangerous as they caught sight of them leaving the tower.I’m pleased to report that they’re both now back in normal footwear and have since rung a quarter peal together.
