This is crazy.
I also heard, albeit in a tabloid (the now-defunct Weekly World News), that this one guy took an axe to the head and lived... with the axe buried in his skull. Apparently, the axe served as a seal to keep the wound from gushing blood.
Now, I know it coming from a tabloid technically cuts its believability to zero, but I think it's possible. Like the food-fight promotion this restaurant does.
But in all seriousness, I hope this guy is alright.

That isn't as far-fetched as you might think. Car crashes are a good example; sometimes someone gets pinned between a car and a wall and their torso gets partially severed. The car keeps them alive as long as it stays in place.REPO Man wrote:I also heard, albeit in a tabloid (the now-defunct Weekly World News), that this one guy took an axe to the head and lived... with the axe buried in his skull.

At least he still can have kids; hopefully none of them will pop out with knives through their heads, though. Dang, that would make me laugh.

I had never heard of that story before, thanks for posting the link Hobie!Hobie-wan wrote:Hopefully he doesn't have too many lasting effects from it, but glad he survived.
See Phineas Gage.
As far as knife-in-the-head-guy goes... wow! I can't imagine what must have been going through his head at the time...
Tasteless, I know... In all seriousness though, I hope the guy makes a decent recovery. That is horrible that someone could bring themselves to putting a knife through a human skull due to anger over something recreational.
