A construction worker who allegedly fell 15 feet onto a steel
bar that impaled him through his nostril before exiting through his skull
miraculously survived the horrific injury and remained conscious throughout the
ordeal.
After the accident, which occurred on Saturday in China, Li
Xuedong, 45, was allegedly driven two hours away to General Hospital of
Shenyang Military Region while his family members held the steel bar in place,
AsiaWire reported.
Xeudong arrived at the hospital with six inches of the bar
sticking out through the top of his head, but doctors didn’t know what the
extent of the damage was inside of his skull. According to AsiaWire, brain
scans showed “there was minimal bleeding, which was very positive.”
The hospital then allegedly called in a fire service who
shortened the steel bar before he was whisked into surgery to have the
remaining pieces removed. He is said to
be in stable condition.
“The patient is conscious and lucid,” a hospital
spokesperson told AsiaWire.
