A 27-year-old man in Mumbai, India, made headlines by walking to the hospital with a cleaver lodged in his head. The man, covered in blood, amazed onlookers by remaining conscious and casually walking through the hospital corridors.
According to Indian media reports, the incident occurred on the night of May 2 near a fried chicken shop. The man, allegedly ambushed by three young men following a previous argument, had a cleaver-like sharp object stuck in his head.
DID NOT LOSE CONSCIOUSNESS DURING THE ATTACK
It is claimed that one of the attackers embedded the cleaver in the man's head while the other two struck him with punches and kicks. Despite severe injuries, the man did not lose consciousness and was taken to Sion Hospital in Mumbai on a friend's motorcycle.
HOSPITAL FOOTAGE SHOCKED VIEWERS
Videos circulating on social media showed the man walking inside the hospital with the cleaver embedded in the left side of his head. Footage also captured a person narrowly avoiding bumping into the handle of the cleaver.
CALLED A "MIRACLE"
One of the doctors who treated the man at the hospital reportedly described his survival as a "miracle." Doctors stated that the cleaver penetrated the skull approximately 3 centimeters deep but did not damage any vital areas of the brain. As a result, the man did not lose his ability to speak or move.
OUT OF DANGER AFTER SURGERY
