      Just pull the wires on both sides out so you’re even. You don’t want one up tit and one down tit

        If I manage to stab myself we have paramedics on site so I should survive. Do you think I could claim it under workcover as a workplace injury?

          the rough sharp ends will cut through the lining and then start cutting you

            It’s ok, it was getting a bit stabby but the whole thing was off as soon as I got to my car to go home. I don’t think I could have pulled the wire out without major bra surgery unfortunately - although if I hadn’t been about to go home anyway I probably would have resorted to that.

      Ah bugger! I’ve never actually snapped one, just had that slow extrusion of one side out through a tiny gap, a millimetre at a time until my boob is being uncomfortably prodded.

        I’ve had that a few times, and one time the wire just worked it’s way out the side so far it was basically an overwire!
