An x-ray of Nicholas Holderman, a 17-month-old Kentucky tot, shows how a set of car keys penetrated his brain after he fell on them. The keys miraculously avoided damaging his eyesight and have been surgically removed.

A dental office X-ray reveals a four-inch nail embedded in the skull of Patrick Lawler, 23, which was removed at Littleton Adventist Hospital in suburban Denver in 2005. Lawler unknowingly shot himself with a nail gun while working at a ski resort and thought he was merely suffering a minor toothache and blurry vision as a result. When painkillers and ice failed to stop the ache six days later, he went to a dental office where the nail was discovered.

The x-ray of Ron Hunt's skull shows an 18-inch-long drill bit that pierced Hunt's eye socket and went through his head, just nudging his brain. Hunt, a Truckee, Calif., construction worker, fell off a ladder Friday, Aug. 15, 2003, and landed on the drill he was using at a construction site.

X-ray images show how a teenage boy cheated death when a 5-inch knife was plunged into his head. The 16-year-old and two other young men were injured when they tried to stop a friend from being robbed at a bus stop. He was rushed to hospital with the kitchen knife still stuck in his forehead after the attack in Walworth, south London, in November 2007.
 
The horror of the injuries made me shudder too!
OTOH, I have an x-ray of my right shoulder that looks something like that with the artificial joint I now have.
The first time I saw it in an x-ray I could hardly believe it was in there - but I sure am glad it is!
