Sydney, Oct 1 (IANS) A man in Australia, asked to wait 10 hours for a doctor to fix his sliced lip, rather opted to use dental floss and a sewing needle to do it himself.

Allan Dell, 26, from Darwin city, said he had no medical background but had pierced meat in the kitchen, Australia’s Daily Telegraph reported.
“I’m also a chef so I’m not too strange with threading meat … I used dental floss and a sewing needle – but I sterilised it all first,” said Dell, adding that he grew up in New South Wales.

Dell had his lip sliced from the base of his nose down to his teeth in an accident that left him hit in the face with a guitar.
