Some kinda luck... Worked with a guy once that carried an air spiker around with his finger on the trigger. He went to step over some material and as he brought his right foot up, bumped the safety of the gun. Skewered his aikilies (sp???) tendon. Kinda gave me the willies. Worst part of it was, we were working in a small town where I had no idea where the hospital was. Had to stop at a grocery store and get directions. Pulled the nail out and he took it home in a ziploc baggy. Wierd, I thought. Why would you want that kind of souvenier? Anyways, he was back to work the next day....a little more cautious.
*Willies achillies in aisle three! Special today only for fast fingered shoppers.
*headline says "5 inch nail in his head" but that only looks a like 12d or 16d at best. read more and they said it went into his head 5 inches. hmmmm.
*could be a typo from handwritten notes. My threes and fives look alike to some. It must be the engineer coming out in you Steve.
*Bogus website.That is not CNN's web address. All the links to more info at the actual CNN site are real.Same thing a while back about Bill Gates trying to patrent 1's and 0's. James DuHamel
*James, if that's a bogus website, they did one hell of a job. All the links that I pushed worked, right down to the video. Even the wheather link. Man those guys sure are good, wonder how they do it.Dano
*I got that off a regulare E-mail on contruction industry news from Building Online -http://www.BuildingOnline.com/I doubt they're hoaxing me
*> I doubt they're hoaxing me Maybe they simply didn't catch it. That's the beauty(?) of hoaxes, people pass them on.On the other hand, I don't understand how http://www.cnn.com/2001/US/08/28/nail.in.head/ is not CNN's address.Rich Beckman
*Page source codes indicate this is CNN and hitting it brings up a pop up ad to subscribe CNNIt is harder to believe the report than to believe that the site is hoax. I know I've stuck a roof nail in my hand a couple of times like this but this dude must've been realy hauling on the line to generate this much force. Or else he's a puddinhead
