Ok guys, so, according to the victims we learned survived a head shot, what are the circumstances you need to have in order to survive being shot in the head? - being shot in just one hemisphere - immediate health assistance - low powered gun And! One more thing. - be a woman
Trauma and shock can do some weird things. There was story of someone who was bashed in the head with an axe. They spent the next hour putting the dishwasher on and cleaning before they succumbed to their injuries
Thank you. Now I understand what the deputy was telling me when my son was shot in the head 16 years ago (accidentally by his best friend) and didn't survive. You've put my mind at ease that he didn't suffer, and likely didn't know it happened.
In that millisecond you dial 9-1-1 and get an ambulance ready, turn your head towards the gun so you only get shot in one side, and swap their shotgun with a pistol
my mom survived a suicide attempt last year. the bullet entered the lower left hemisphere and is stopped in the right side of the brain. my mom is recovering miraculously and i get to be her keeper for a while. i could never have imagined someone could live through such a fatal blow
I did not realise that treating a brain shot injury was "just" giving it room to swell and letting the brain do the rest. It is truly magnificent what our brains can do. I am mind blown (please ignore the really bad but unintentional pun)
They would also need to drain blood as it fills the wound and replace it with transfusions, as well as put them on an assisted breathing device. But basically, yes.
My grandpa used to be a cop and a paramedic, he told me a story one time about how a guy had tried to kill himself with a .22 with some really old ammunition. He said the rounds kept flattening on his skull and not penetrating but he was persistent, took around 5 shots to penetrate and kill him.
Reminds me of this story about the repeating volcanic pistol: A suicidal man went to a gun store to buy a .34 volcanic pistol with the ammunition (presumably because at the time it was that or a muzzleloader). Once he got home he shot himself, then chambered a new round and shot himself again, and repeated this process until he emptied the gun, the side of his head was covered in blood, and his wife came home horrified. This is because the ammunition it used, .34 rocket ball, was well a rocket, rockets need time and distance to build up momentum and become lethal, within a dozen meters it may not be lethal, and from the muzzle it has almost zero time or distance to become deadly.
Bull I survived a 22 head shot point blank and I suffer same symptoms of a stroke victim my right side is week I spent 9 months in the hospital and went from facility to facility till I recovered and I still haven't fully recovered yet cause I don't have $$ nothing is Free you're grandpa was lieing or you are lieing I struggle every day now my life is so much more difficult so many thing's I can't do because of my disability it sucks its not fun I don't like you dragging people down and making things known people make mistakes
@@ryanduncan6801 Ok bro but not every situation is the same. There's people that have survived falls from 50 stories up and there's also people that have slipped in the shower and died. Some people survive a grenade, some don't. Just because that happened to you does not mean it HAS to happen to everyone else. I watched this story about a 19 year old that got shot 3 times in the face and his gf was shot and killed and the cops thought he killed her because they couldn't even see the bullet holes in his face. They didn't notice for like a day, they just thought he was acting weird because they thought he killed her. When they finally noticed, they realized that some guys broke into their house and shot him and his girl. I'll find the video and post it here. Not everyone or every situation is the same. Think outside the box.
I had an EMT friend who told me a similar story from one of his first days/weeks. Supposedly the dude who shot himself in the head with a .22 was still talking with EMTs right after and complaining about having survived.
I also said this on the original video, but instant death isn't always the case. I witnessed a suicide when I was 15. He did not die instantly. He survived for about an hour, maybe an hour and a half, but even if he survived, he wouldn't have been the same. Keep that in mind if you ever want to hurt yourself. It's not always instant. People love you. Seek help.
@@MegumiTheGreat I never touched the gun and there were multiple other witnesses. He was drunk and angry and his behavior leading up to it made sense to the police. As for the time of death, I know this because when the police and ambulance showed up they were still trying to save him and right before he got taken into the chopper for transport, they finally gave up and pronounced him dead. I understand your confusion. There's still more to it but it's a lot to type. Edit: Also, the angle of which he shot himself. It was from the right side of the bottom of the jaw to the top of the left back side of his head
@@oliverpotts8664 but they were trespassing and it was night time assuming the man was alone he probably heard a bunch of foot steps and whispering and got scared and thought he need to defend himself you telling me if a bunch a people walk in your house at night you not grabbing your gun and shooting
@@pumpkinspice5848 judging from the picture, the teens were facing away from him/fleeing when he fired, thereby not making them a threat, and the shoot, not a good one.
I can imagine how she was able to do that. If I survived a shot to the head like in her case, the first thing I would do is smoke a cigarette/joint. Tea was probably the most relaxing thing for her.
Nobody is gonna talk about how crazy the Rachael one is? It passed through 4 different parts of her brain including both hemispheres with a hollow point bullet. Hollow points would make your brain explode inside its own skull
I know someone personally who survived a point blank pistol shot to the forehead. It was just a freak survival, she was taken to the hospital and everyone was extremely shocked how little damage was done and how little change took place in her life
one of my high school counselors got shot in the head and the story was one of the craziest I've heard.. unfortunately it did effect his mental health; and he was ultimately forced to leave the school due to it..
@Willham McMuffin PG3D The story where the woman got shot, she made some tea after getting shot. This person is jusy saying what happened in a comedic manner.
Brain: “Hey skull, can you stop that bullet? I’m pretty fragile.” Skull: “Sorry. I’m too weak :(“ Brain: “I’m swelling now! Can you give me some space!” Skull: “lol, No! I’m too strong!”
I'd also like to point out that RFK had 1960s neurosurgery available to him. All the others mentioned happened much more recently, and our ability to stabilise complex brain traumas has improved by leaps and bounds in the interim
Interestingly Robert Kennedy spoke a few phrases before losing consciousness. His last words were “Is everyone (else) ok?) and “Oh no, don’t lift me”. R.I.P. Bobby Kennedy.
I have often wondered how the killer was able to get so close and get off so many shots before someone kicked his ass. If I had been working security for a man of that stature, I would have kept my head on a swivel, I would not trust anyone walking up trying to get close to him. It makes you wonder.
@@kellymccain3403 one factor might be that the people around got startled by the first gun shot. A sudden loud sound will startle most humans into a sort of shock stare before they can react and locate where the sound came from

My uncle was shot in the head while waiting in his car outside a food joint at night back in the early 80’s. He was in the right place at the wrong time. He received medical attention and manage to pull through his injury, however the event left him permanently blind. He lived a generally normal life, though his health slowly and gradually declined throughout the years. Having had strokes multiple times had made the left side of his body become more numb, which made it harder for him to function properly as he got older. He passed away in his late 60’s a few years ago. His doctors that rescued him called *Eddie Ortiz* “a walking miracle”.
@@moonster2343 It wasn't a miracle. The bloke got shot in the head, surgeons worked endless hours to save him and he had long term effects dying in his 60's after many strokes and slight paralysis of the left side of his body.
@@sullythedude No he isn't. He's not a victim of shit, he is malicious and rageful, he makes other people victims, he is not a victim for causing harm to others
@@sullythedude dude come on. "it was not an objective refrence to the meaning of victim" literally nonsense, if it doesn't have anything to do with the word, don't use the word, because everyone else reads the word victim and understands it as meaning victim. Calling someone a victim is calling them a victim, I'm sorry but no, being a horrible human does not mean you are a victim of that, it just makes you a horrible person. I don't know what your specific circumstances are but I say the same, you causing hard to other people does not make you a victim, in any way, you can face repercussions for that, negative ones, but you are no longer a victim when you face the consequences of hurting others unless those consequences greatly out do your own. I'm not perpetuating this idea of "well they're a victim too in their own way right?" because they simply aren't, using it to call someone who objectively is not a victim and harms others inherently takes away the value from the word, calling them a victim inherently gives them vindication. This is bullshit that only gets used to diminish the actions of what they did and gain sympathy, notice how people only ever apply this shit to white men who have caused horrible crimes? There is no reality in which him being a bad person and causing harm to others makes him a "victim" in any sense of the word
I personally know someone who was shot in the head with a 9mm. He had a grapefruit size chunk of his head missing on the left side. He’s alive and well. He had a wife, kids and is a police officer. True miracle!
Maybe I wrote about this case in the original video, but I think it fits here, too^^ We had a case of a head shot that would have been survived, if it would have been the only injury. The other being a shot through the heart, which was not survived. The patient was hit over the counter with a pistol right in the middle of the forehead. We could see at autopsy, that the bullet passed between the hemispheres and came to a stop in the occipital bone. The damage to the brain was absolutely minimal, no major blood vessel was hit, nothing. He would have survived that shot, since an ambulance was at the scene rather quickly. Unfortunately, the shooter fired several shots and hit the heart and the lung. That was the most lucky unlucky guy on my table ...
A very rare case happened with my uncle, he was shot in head with a sawed off 12 gauge buckshot from a distance of 3-4 meters. the pellets hit him just below the pinna, an another round was fired on the back. The shots damaged the internal ear and few shots penetrated the brain, the right side jaw was damaged along with the internal ear. He went through multiple consecutive brain surgeries to remove the pellets. Luckily he survived the ordeal and still has pellets in the back. He spent almost 6 months in hospital. He has all motor skill and other functions intact except hearing through the right ear.

8:47 Fun Fact about Gabby, she’s the husband of Mark Kelly, the brother of Scott Kelly, astronaut of NASA that went to the ISS to stay 365 days, between 2015-2016
Mark and Scott have both been astronauts, and they're also identical twins. After Giffords' shooting, Mark retired from NASA to be with his wife, and he later entered politics. When Scott spend his year in space, Mark was used as a sort of control test subject for comparison, which helped them identify and study the effects of prolonged space flight.
@@Boredman567 If they're identical twins and both are astronauts, how do they know for sure which one is in space? How do WE know which one is in the Senate?
Yeah, they don’t put you to sleep for stitches. I had stitches right after a fall right above my left eye. The anesthesia wore off after the third and I started to feel it. It hurt like a bitch.
@@henrylongworth It was. Never had stitches besides then. It hurt like a bitch. But depending on how you are, you may prefer skin glue. That time they did 4 stitches and some skin glue. I felt the last 2 stitches unnumbed, and the skin glue burned like a bitch. So if the numbness wears off you’ll either feel a sharp threat going in and out, or a burning feeling for a good 50 seconds.
Worked security in an ER for the past decade and one of the most memorable events was a guy brought in after an officer involved shooting through his windshield. Took a .223 between the eyes and the casing penetrated his chest and he was still fighting us in the trauma bay to get up to pee. He flew out shortly after and survived it. No doubt the windshield cut the velocity of an already small round a lot, but damn.
@@ZEMPHYRRIANs420gaming-bl7wm No argument there in terms of velocity, but I'd be really curious to see how the windshield affected it on a high speed camera, whether it hit in a spin or somewhere in a tumble and I kinda wish I'd been able to see a scan of the patient's head but I was tied up at the time. Of course my example was anecdotal and recreating it ten times might yield ten different results, but I was still surprised just how unaffected he was by it and my impulse was that I wouldn't want to rely on that round at home. Medical seemed more concerned by the chest injury too so I have to assume the "headshot" was pretty superficial in that one instance. But it was dead center, no mistaking that even with the wound packs in place.
I can confirm that this video is true because a guy here on my street was shot in the head right in the brain region and remained alive and answering questions, later he died because of The serious Bleeding
My best friend shot himself in the head with a .45 ACP and survived. He put the gun under his chin, and the bullet came out of the top of his head passing through he frontal lobe of his brain. He did it on a Friday night and was found on Monday morning. It’s remarkable he survived this. But he is blind in his left eye, deaf in his left ear and can’t taste with the left side of his tongue.
Robert Lawrence was a British Army officer shot by an Argentinian sniper at the Battle of Mount Tumbledown (Falklands War, 1982). The FAL rifle round took 43% of Lawrence's brain, and he received no medical attention for six hours - in mass casualty situations, limited resources are not wasted on those deemed to have very little chance of surviving. Lawrence has a slight limp, and his left arm is paralysed.
This is something I've always wanted to know about out of sheer morbid curiosity. I can't believe someone on UA-cam actually made 2 videos on the subject. You can really find ANYTHING on the internet. To the content maker: thank you for the highly informative video!
What is said at 10:59 is not correct. Robert Kennedy was hit by three of the eight shots fired, not four. He had four wounds on his body, but two of them were from the same bullet (an entry wound and an exit wound). This is stated in the Autopsy Report.
@@SPECTREA-vm7fy I think you might be confusing the weapon used with that used in Robert Kennedy's brother, John F. Kennedy's assassination. President John F. Kennedy was assassinated by Lee Harvey Oswald who did use a rifle. But Robert Kennedy was assassinated by Sirhan Bishara Sirhan, who used a .22 Caliber Revolver to kill Robert Kennedy.
I think RFK probably also bleed out way too fast to help oxidize and regenerate his head wound !! The 2 that hit his right armpit area might've severed a major artery in the general location and would've most likely died regardless of the head trauma!! I mean..he was hit with like 4-5 of the 8 and that's a tough thing to recover from regardless of where it hit !!
Another big difference between the case of Kennedy and the women was that he was shot in the 1960s where the others were shot much more recently. Medical Science wasn't terrible back then, but has improved significantly since, and many surgeries just weren't possible in 1968
Is it okay that my head legitimately hurts after watching this video? It reminds me how vulnerable we humans are, and in the same time, how amazing are body is that it can recover from even a headshot. (Which is I know the exception.)
our body is actually pretty strong and can withstand a lot of things. we humans just found a loophole to our body which is getting a small high speed bullet through it which is fast and compact enough to pierce through any type of body tissue. our brain, being our most important organ second to the heart when it comes to staying alive, is being protected by a pretty thick skull which takes a lot of force to break through. in other words, our body is pretty awesome but our technology beats our body
@@simonwouters341 Actually compared to almost every other animal, our bodies are super weak. I’m just glad that there are no raccoons running around with glock 19s!
@@Echo-hg7gu Kinda correct. Our bodies are weak compared to a lot of animals but what we have over them is an insane ability to heal. Things that would be 100% fatal to many species on the planet are easily survivable, even without professional medical attention. Human's ability to heal is insane.
@@haydenrueps6866 Humans are not fragile, we're simply evolved for resilience rather than raw toughness, meaning we evolved to tolerate grievous injuries instead of being tough enough to not get hurt in the first place, because the former is much more efficient than the latter
I forget the exact case, but there was a murder case where a man and his girlfriend were ambushed and shot in their own home. The man was shot directly in the head and survived for a couple of days when the scene was discovered. Police didn't believe him when he said he was shot in the head in the interview and they kept him from medical care for hours. When one officer noticed the injury, he rushed him to the hospital and he made a near full recovery (he suffers seizures and learning difficulties to this day, so yes, it was a brain shot). His case was one in a billion tho.

Seen the results of a 12ga in the mouth suicide when I was about 11 years old when a depressed fellow placed the end of the barrel in his mouth sitting against his garage. I rode up on my bike to what was left of him about 20 seconds after he did it since an alleyway passed behind his garage. I just stood and looked at the red foam coming out of his upper neck area and the amazing amount of material all over the garage and thought to myself "Man, humans sure can make a mess"
Damn look at the paranoid schizos face, he doesn't even realize what he did was so awful. I had a schizo friend that wouldn't seek treatment and I had to get out of the situation once they start getting paranoid you literally don't wanna be near them at all that shit is dangerous
Pour one out for all the people with schizophrenia, there’s not many disorders worse than that one. Namely because they have humanity like the rest of us, just with episodes of terrifying paranoia
11:13 the Ambassador Hotel (3400 Wilshire) where Kennedy was shot was actually only 2 miles and a 10 minute drive away from Good Samaritan Hospital (1225 Wilshire). The present day site of the hotel is in Koreatown and now a school named after RFK. So he did get medical attention quicker than the video shows but, with the circumstances that RFK had, even modern neurosurgery probably wouldn’t have saved his life.
That's why special forces and police snipers aim for the brain stem. So the imaginary line between the nabe of the neck or just below the nose. That kind of shot will be a instant kill if it hits as a destroyed brain stem is basically internal decapitation.
I remember when Gabby Giffords was shot, I was about 7 years old. A 9 year old girl was also shot that day and unfortunately didn't make it. She went to my elementary school, and there was a huge memorial for her held at the school. Rest in peace Christina Taylor Green❤
My dad is an electrician and met a guy at a work party who survived a contact shot from a hitchhiker he shouldn't have picked up. The guy pulled a gun on him and told him to get in the boot, then shot him and closed it. He woke up and happened to be aware of where the switch is inside the boot, so he opened it and rolled out onto the road. His head was bandaged up when my dad met him. Can only assume it wasn't hollow point.
Ah yes, I remember hearing this study at the Mafia and Gang conference last year during talk on "things we most commonly tell our members". Really interesting data.
Robert Lawrence MC survived despite violating most of these principles. He was an junior officer in the Scots Guards during the Falklands War, and was shot in the final couple of hours of the war at the Battle of Mount Tumbledown. He was shot by a sniper using an FAL rifle firing a 7.62x51mm bullet, advancing in the heat of battle the sniper had been missed so shot Lawrence from behind (no idea at the range, but couldn't have been massive). He had to wait 2 hours before being evacuated by helicopter. Then he got to the makeshift hospital and was left outside for another 4 hours as he was assumed to have little chance of survival. He'd been shot in the back of the head with the bullet through the hairline above his right eye, he lost something like 40-45% of his brain. I suspect it might be relevant that he was injured in June (winter in the Falklands) and was lying in snow while he was waiting to be evacuated. Would be interested to know what anyone more knowledgeable than I thinks. Just commenting out of interest, this is in no way intended as saying the content of this video is wrong or any such idiocy.
James Brady died 33 years, 4 months and 5 days after he was shot in the head by James Hinkley Jr. during the Regan Assassination attempt. Hinkley could not be prosecuted for this under Washington DC's "year and a day" rule regarding murders.
In the 19th century I believe, the cerebellum was given the nickname "heaven's gate." Once it takes serious damage, chances of survival are slim, especially from a gunshot wound

They would also need to drain blood as it fills the wound and replace it with transfusions, as well as put them on an assisted breathing device. But basically, yes.

Reminds me of this story about the repeating volcanic pistol:
A suicidal man went to a gun store to buy a .34 volcanic pistol with the ammunition (presumably because at the time it was that or a muzzleloader). Once he got home he shot himself, then chambered a new round and shot himself again, and repeated this process until he emptied the gun, the side of his head was covered in blood, and his wife came home horrified.
This is because the ammunition it used, .34 rocket ball, was well a rocket, rockets need time and distance to build up momentum and become lethal, within a dozen meters it may not be lethal, and from the muzzle it has almost zero time or distance to become deadly.

@@ryanduncan6801 Ok bro but not every situation is the same. There's people that have survived falls from 50 stories up and there's also people that have slipped in the shower and died. Some people survive a grenade, some don't. Just because that happened to you does not mean it HAS to happen to everyone else. I watched this story about a 19 year old that got shot 3 times in the face and his gf was shot and killed and the cops thought he killed her because they couldn't even see the bullet holes in his face. They didn't notice for like a day, they just thought he was acting weird because they thought he killed her. When they finally noticed, they realized that some guys broke into their house and shot him and his girl. I'll find the video and post it here. Not everyone or every situation is the same. Think outside the box.
I had an EMT friend who told me a similar story from one of his first days/weeks. Supposedly the dude who shot himself in the head with a .22 was still talking with EMTs right after and complaining about having survived.

My uncle was shot in the head while waiting in his car outside a food joint at night back in the early 80’s. He was in the right place at the wrong time. He received medical attention and manage to pull through his injury, however the event left him permanently blind.
He lived a generally normal life, though his health slowly and gradually declined throughout the years. Having had strokes multiple times had made the left side of his body become more numb, which made it harder for him to function properly as he got older. He passed away in his late 60’s a few years ago.

I'm not perpetuating this idea of "well they're a victim too in their own way right?" because they simply aren't, using it to call someone who objectively is not a victim and harms others inherently takes away the value from the word, calling them a victim inherently gives them vindication. This is bullshit that only gets used to diminish the actions of what they did and gain sympathy, notice how people only ever apply this shit to white men who have caused horrible crimes?

We had a case of a head shot that would have been survived, if it would have been the only injury. The other being a shot through the heart, which was not survived. The patient was hit over the counter with a pistol right in the middle of the forehead. We could see at autopsy, that the bullet passed between the hemispheres and came to a stop in the occipital bone. The damage to the brain was absolutely minimal, no major blood vessel was hit, nothing. He would have survived that shot, since an ambulance was at the scene rather quickly. Unfortunately, the shooter fired several shots and hit the heart and the lung. That was the most lucky unlucky guy on my table ...
A very rare case happened with my uncle, he was shot in head with a sawed off 12 gauge buckshot from a distance of 3-4 meters. the pellets hit him just below the pinna, an another round was fired on the back. The shots damaged the internal ear and few shots penetrated the brain, the right side jaw was damaged along with the internal ear. He went through multiple consecutive brain surgeries to remove the pellets. Luckily he survived the ordeal and still has pellets in the back. He spent almost 6 months in hospital. He has all motor skill and other functions intact except hearing through the right ear.

Worked security in an ER for the past decade and one of the most memorable events was a guy brought in after an officer involved shooting through his windshield. Took a .223 between the eyes and the casing penetrated his chest and he was still fighting us in the trauma bay to get up to pee. He flew out shortly after and survived it. No doubt the windshield cut the velocity of an already small round a lot, but damn.
Even after penetrating the windshield .223 will inflict more damage to tissue than most pistol calibers
@@ZEMPHYRRIANs420gaming-bl7wm No argument there in terms of velocity, but I'd be really curious to see how the windshield affected it on a high speed camera, whether it hit in a spin or somewhere in a tumble and I kinda wish I'd been able to see a scan of the patient's head but I was tied up at the time. Of course my example was anecdotal and recreating it ten times might yield ten different results, but I was still surprised just how unaffected he was by it and my impulse was that I wouldn't want to rely on that round at home. Medical seemed more concerned by the chest injury too so I have to assume the "headshot" was pretty superficial in that one instance. But it was dead center, no mistaking that even with the wound packs in place.
I can confirm that this video is true because a guy here on my street was shot in the head right in the brain region and remained alive and answering questions, later he died because of The serious Bleeding

Robert Lawrence was a British Army officer shot by an Argentinian sniper at the Battle of Mount Tumbledown (Falklands War, 1982).

I think RFK probably also bleed out way too fast to help oxidize and regenerate his head wound !! The 2 that hit his right armpit area might've severed a major artery in the general location and would've most likely died regardless of the head trauma!! I mean..he was hit with like 4-5 of the 8 and that's a tough thing to recover from regardless of where it hit !!
Another big difference between the case of Kennedy and the women was that he was shot in the 1960s where the others were shot much more recently. Medical Science wasn't terrible back then, but has improved significantly since, and many surgeries just weren't possible in 1968
Is it okay that my head legitimately hurts after watching this video? It reminds me how vulnerable we humans are, and in the same time, how amazing are body is that it can recover from even a headshot. (Which is I know the exception.)
our body is actually pretty strong and can withstand a lot of things. we humans just found a loophole to our body which is getting a small high speed bullet through it which is fast and compact enough to pierce through any type of body tissue. our brain, being our most important organ second to the heart when it comes to staying alive, is being protected by a pretty thick skull which takes a lot of force to break through.

"From where you're kneeling it must seem like an 18-carat run of bad luck. Truth is...the game was rigged from the start."
I forget the exact case, but there was a murder case where a man and his girlfriend were ambushed and shot in their own home. The man was shot directly in the head and survived for a couple of days when the scene was discovered. Police didn't believe him when he said he was shot in the head in the interview and they kept him from medical care for hours. When one officer noticed the injury, he rushed him to the hospital and he made a near full recovery (he suffers seizures and learning difficulties to this day, so yes, it was a brain shot). His case was one in a billion tho.
Yeah I remember that one. He kept saying he couldn’t remember what happened and the cops didn’t believe him until they saw the wound

11:13 the Ambassador Hotel (3400 Wilshire) where Kennedy was shot was actually only 2 miles and a 10 minute drive away from Good Samaritan Hospital (1225 Wilshire). The present day site of the hotel is in Koreatown and now a school named after RFK. So he did get medical attention quicker than the video shows but, with the circumstances that RFK had, even modern neurosurgery probably wouldn’t have saved his life.
That's why special forces and police snipers aim for the brain stem. So the imaginary line between the nabe of the neck or just below the nose.
That kind of shot will be a instant kill if it hits as a destroyed brain stem is basically internal decapitation.

He was shot by a sniper using an FAL rifle firing a 7.62x51mm bullet, advancing in the heat of battle the sniper had been missed so shot Lawrence from behind (no idea at the range, but couldn't have been massive). He had to wait 2 hours before being evacuated by helicopter. Then he got to the makeshift hospital and was left outside for another 4 hours as he was assumed to have little chance of survival. He'd been shot in the back of the head with the bullet through the hairline above his right eye, he lost something like 40-45% of his brain.
I suspect it might be relevant that he was injured in June (winter in the Falklands) and was lying in snow while he was waiting to be evacuated. Would be interested to know what anyone more knowledgeable than I thinks.
Just commenting out of interest, this is in no way intended as saying the content of this video is wrong or any such idiocy.
I survived a shot to the head by armed robbers and i haven't been able to sleep well or go out at night.
which part lf your brain did it affect?
@@vedprakashsahu4697 no idea
James Brady died 33 years, 4 months and 5 days after he was shot in the head by James Hinkley Jr. during the Regan Assassination attempt. Hinkley could not be prosecuted for this under Washington DC's "year and a day" rule regarding murders.
In the 19th century I believe, the cerebellum was given the nickname "heaven's gate." Once it takes serious damage, chances of survival are slim, especially from a gunshot wound
