Hand Pruners Leave Hands, Enter Eye Socket, Neck. TaDa! [X-Ray]


TUCSON - 86-year-old Leroy Luetscher dropped his pruning shears while working in the garden. You know what happened next:

When Luetscher went to pick them up, he lost his balance and fell face-down on the handle. The handle penetrated his eye socket and went down into his neck, resting on the external carotid artery. Half the shears were left in his head, while the other half was sticking out.

His eye is now held in by metal mesh. Photo via University Medical Center.
