Korean man complains of severe headache

This X-ray picture shows a 5-centimeter nail stuck in an unidentified South Korean patient's skull Thursday, Dec. 2, 2004. According to a Seoul hospital, doctors found the nail after the man came to the hospital, complaining about a severe headache. They speculate that the nail stuck in the man's head four years ago in an accident but the man didn't know about it. The nail was removed in a surgery last Saturday. (AP Photo/Yonhap).

2. Well, I guess he did!
You'd think that something getting stuck in your brain would mean inevitable death. I'm not sure how many of these type of stories I've heard... each is fascinating.

11. Read a story years and years ago...
...A man was mugged and badly beaten. He recovered, but suffered from recurring headaches. An x-ray revealed five 5 mm. bullets in his face and head...

During the doctor's examination, the poor fellow kept mumbling that major combat operations in Iraq are over.
