US boy survives after falling on rod that pierced his skull
A 10-year-old boy from Missouri has survived after he tumbled from a treehouse and landed on a meat skewer that pierced through his skull. The skewer completely missed his eye, brain, spinal cord and major blood vessels, which the doctors described as "miraculous". "He is recovering now...thanks to about 100 people who worked together to save him," the hospital said.
