Oh my! Man survives being pierced by 15- inch piece of wood (pic)

How did he survive this? The medical staff at
a Polish Emergency ward were surprised when
40 year old Kamil Podwinski calmly walked
into their medical centre with a 15inch piece
of wood stuck right through his head.
According to New York Post, Mr Podwinski
was renovating his home in Konin Poland
when the freak accident happened. He
reportedly told the nurses he was working
when he slipped and fell face first onto a
sharp piece of wood. The wood entered his
face just below his eye socket and came out
through the back of his neck. And he survived.
He actually took himself to the hospital.
At the hospital, the staff had to call the fire
service department because they'd never dealt
with something like that before and were
scared they might cause more injury trying to
remove the piece of wood out of the man. The
fire service arrived the hospital and helped the
medical team remove the wood without
causing further damage.
The incident has since been described as a
miracle as the man who was calm through out
the ordeal, didn't suffer serious injuries and is
recovering in the hospital.
