Young boy Recovering After Fishing Spear Impales Forehead
Loading the player ...
A Miami teen who was impaled in the forehead in a spearfishing gun accident in early June is very, very lucky, according to surgeons who were able to remove the long piece of metal that was lodged all the way through his brain.
16-year-old Yasser Lopez is recovering well; doctors with Jackson Memorial Hospital said at a press conference Monday he will likely rehabilitate without additional surgery.
According to a report given to Jackson doctors, the two teens were not underwater when the spear gun Lopez's friend was holding discharged.
Doctors say the report noted that both boys "woke up" to find that Lopez had a spear in his forehead, suggesting that Lopez lost consciousness initially and that the friend may have passed out in shock.
According to the hospital, the fishing spear entered Lopez's head about an inch above his right eye.

Is it possible to be considered lucky on this one? On one hand, you took a spear through the head, on the other hand, you took a spear to the head (and somehow avoided major injury or death)

When they did the operation they also noticed some small particles of brain matter lodged inside his skull They remove it along with the spear and now Yasser is doing just dandy.

I would say he was just very lucky. If he was very, very lucky the spear would have missed.

My sister shot me in the forehead with a home made bow and arrow when I was eight. The arrow was just a blunt piece of cane and I was holding up a cardboard box with a target painted on it. Needed three stitches but bounced off. She thought she'd killed me, can't imagine how this guys mate feels.
