Watermelon to the Face Incredible Trauma Video: ICD Code Anyone? (Amazing Race Clip)

I'd hate to be this lady who got her face traumatized by a watermelon sling shot launcher during the Amazing Race Show.  I can only imagine what that EMT report would be like on the way in to the ER as a trauma.  No matter how many times you watch this watermelon attack her face at full force, in slow motion, you can't help but feel sorry laugh your ass off at this woman.  She's slinging watermelons.  What did she thing was going to happen? 

I wonder what the ICD code would be for facial fruit trauma. We know that watermelon stomach carries the ICD 537.82, but  I couldn't find one for watermelon face. 

Go here where I explain ICD and CPT codes.
