Survives Screwdriver Through Skull


2-year-old Girl Survives Screwdriver Through Skull

A 2-year-old Farmington, Minn., girl suffered only a bruise when a screwdriver went right into her head, according to the Minneapolis Star Tribune.

Teagan Gislason was playing with some other children in a supervised area during a church service in Cannon Falls, Minn., Dec. 19 when she found the screwdriver and started running with it and fell.

It pierced her skull, just above her left eye.

Neither her eye nor her brain was damaged and doctors did not need to perform surgery to remove it, although it did take four hours to extract the tool from her head.

I once saw on tv a guy that tried to commit suicide by firing staples into his skull using a staple gun. Fortunately the guy survived with no serious damage to his brain.

At any rate, it got no worse.
