Today, jumping over the stiles in the Paris subway, I caught my shin on the turnstile. I put my hands out reflexively to avoid busting my face on the ground, but ended up suspended upside down from the metal bars. A kid took a photo. FML

you were wearing a tourniquet? I think this word may have been used incorrectly.

'Turnstile' is 'tourniquet' in French, and this FML looks like it was translated from the French version of the site, so it was probably lost in translation.

The username was in French, so it was likely translated from the French version of the site.
