Re: Man shoots self but doesn't realize it until 3 days later

My low opinion of "Mexican Carry" is based on my observations of other people's pain. Anyone who wants to carry that way deserves EXACTLY whatever happens to him. :mrgreen:

Nothing wrong with Mexican carry. There are certain weapons I wont use it with. You just have to use your noggin.

He passed out in the process, woke up the next day not remembering anything of the previous day, but had one heckuva headache. So he went to the ER, they took some X-rays, and he had about 9 or 10 nails embedded in his brain. On both sides. It was a very interesting picture.

Update: OK, it was 12 nails http://www.nbcnews.com/id/12425803/ns/h ... ails-head/
"Surgeons removed the nails with needle-nosed pliers and a drill..."

remind me not to have surgery performed in Portland, Oregon.
When I was in college I worked as a framer. We had a worker who accidentally shot himself through the knuckles from index finger to pinky. The ER didn't have any tools or a clue as how to remove the nail. It took two of us holding on to his hand and two of us pulling on the nail with vice-grips ( provided by us) to remove the nail.
