Oh my! Man survives being speared 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.
