MAN DRILLS THROUGH SKULL
A Californian man is lucky to be alive after an accident on a construction site.
Ron Hunt was drilling into a wall when the ladder he was standing on slipped.
His head was impaled on the drill bit.
Surgeons had to literally unscrew the tool from his skull.
Mr Hunt lost the sight in his right eye but still considers himself to be a very lucky man.
It looks like the drill didn't penetrate the brain. I suspect it went in the eye socket and out behind his jaw. Whatever happened he is one lucky guy and still may be smarter than the Californians voting for Bustamante.
