A CONTESTANT in a charity arm-wrestling bout pushed herself to the limit and beyond, snapping her arm as she desperately tried to beat her opponent.

Competing in the Delaware Arm Wrestling Lady League competitor Rogue Scout, real name Megan Weber, easily beat her opponent Sweet Treats with her right arm in her first bout.

Switching to her left, Weber found the going much tougher.

Eventually her epic battle with Sweet Treats ended in a snap - literally.

She broke her left arm.

“You never expect things like that to happen,” the 31-year-old physical therapist told Delaware's News Journal.

"I was looking forward to a fun thing to do for a good cause. It’s nobody’s fault. It’s just a freak thing that happened."
