Crazy homeless guy with needles in arm

So there is this old homeless guy that i see all the time on my way around town/school named Lary. He's told me he slams meth, and sometimes H. But anyway the other day I see him flying a sign for change with a sling on. So as I passed him I said hi at least, and asked what was up with the sling; if he was using it to try and get more change. He's old and his eyes aren't that good, and he tells me......
It's from the hospital he just got out of because his arm is infected and swelling up. They scanned his arm and said he had multiple broken needle tips IN HIS ARM!!!!!!!!!
To this he just cackled also, with not a care in the world. Scary as fuck.
BTW he is schizophrenic so this could be the reason he seems not to have any fear.

Besides the fact that he does mad dope, hes actually pretty nice. Always laughing/cackling and smiling. Sometimes he almost seems more happy with the fact that his insane? Told me he started hearing voices when he was about 10-12 but at 14 was already doing mad gack down south. Eeeek.

Well clearly not that easy, but you're acting like you'd need fucking superman to break them. You dont, they break all the time.

They do if they have been used over and over. Quite easily in fact.

really because I typically give injections to the critters here and have a hard time breaking the needles, they bend at a 90 before they break, doesnt matter which brand, termero, BD, Nipro, nothing finer than 25ga has broken easily

how many uses before they get so weak, heating them anneals them and makes them softer, easier to bend

Yeah i have no clue, because he said points as in he had multiple in his arm. But when hes twacked he shakes really bad. So just imagine being skitzo/homeless in almost pitch black/riding a meth high/shaking........Thats how he has em.

Not sure exactly, not something you keep track of when your shooting dope. I used U-100 insulin syringes and only ever had one break while it was in my arm.
I guess I should rephrase that to say that they CAN break, especially if they have had a flame applied to them previously.
I have seen it happen to someone else and they couldn't get it out of their arm. Thankfully I was able to pull mine out with tweezers. Also thankfully it's been years since I was a junkie.

it has to be quenched to make it brittle, typically, oil, brine or water is used to quench it, it's known as tempering, my father was a junkie for nearly 30 years, never reported a broken needle in his arm

I only know that it happened to me and one other person I know personally. I guess it's not that common. 
Edit: It could be that the one that broke in my arm had been bent at the base and then bent back straight which weakened it because it broke off at the base.
