Student Parties For Days With Bullet In His Head

Sometimes, you just can't stop the party. It's like Diddy said, "can't stop, won't stop." A student partied for days with a bullet in his head.

If that won't stop the party, I'm not sure what could. Turns out, he wasn't even aware of what happened!

Now, I'm no stranger to taking shots at parties. However, the shots I'm taking are typically tequila. They certainly aren't gun shots!

According to The New York Post, a medical student in Brazil has a 'high shot tolerance' after partying for several days with a bullet lodged in his brain! He wasn't even aware! He thought it was an injury from a rock!

The incident happened on New Year's Eve in Cabo Frio, which is close to Rio De Janeiro. Personally, I've never been to Rio or Brazil, but I'm familiar with it. From what I know, they like to party. I have to imagine that intensifies on New Year's Eve.

According to The New York Post, the student was hanging out with friends on a beach when he felt something strike him in the head. Initially, he believed he was hit by a rock because he didn't hear anything that would make him believe otherwise.

He told Globo 1, "I thought it was a stone, a bad joke, that someone picked up and threw a rock...If there was a noise, I could imagine what it could be. But I didn't hear anything, it was completely normal."

Could he have been shot by a silencer? That would be odd. Totally oblivious to what had just occurred, he continued partying. One of the people with his was actually a doctor and helped him stop the bleeding and treat his wound, per the New York Post.

Four days later, he realized there was definitely a problem here. According to the New York Post, he started suffering from arm spasms while on a car ride home. He was losing some of his motor skills. Things were not normal.

According to the New York Post, he then went to the hospital where they discovered he had a 9mm bullet in his head. Doctors say he was lucky he didn't suffer more serious damage by not having it addressed.

The New York Post says doctors were able to successfully extract the bullet without causing any further problems. Police are now attempting to identify where the bullet came from and who fired the shot.

Now, I've never been shot. However, I feel like I would notice if I had been shot. I would know! There's no way I could just continue on partying. Then again, I'm not in Brazil.

There are no shortage of ways that you can end up in the Emergency Room. Sometimes, it's something completely unpreventable. Other times, it's something that certainly could have been prevented with a little common sense. These 7 strange items have been found inside people's bodies.

According to Fox News, in 2021, foreign objects stuck in people's bodies was the ninth leading cause of accidental injuries that led to trips to the emergency room. Data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says that in 2021 nearly 278,000 adults in the United States went to the E.R. due to some sort of object being stuck inside their body.

Regarding these objects being a common reason for trips to the Emergency Room, Dr. Marc Spiegel, a clinical professor of medicine at NYU Langone Medical Center, told Fox News, "Foreign objects being stuck in strange places is predictable at number nine, when you consider that more than half are sex toys." He continued, telling Fox News, "But there is also the factor of people absentmindedly poking themselves with objects, especially in the nose, ears, and mouth."

This makes sense. Adult toys are often designed and intended to go inside of our bodies. Accidents can happen, they can get stuck, and that will indeed lead to a trip to the Emergency Room. While it may be embarrassing, I think we can all understand that it happens. What's not as common are random items getting stuck up noses that are not intended to go up there.

Emergency Room doctors have seen it all...and then some, I'm sure. Look around the room you're in now. I'd be willing to bet there are at least ten objects within grabbing distance that could fit inside one of your orifices. It might take a little effort, but they can fit if you want them to. Now, the shocking thing about the data that Fox News is talking about is that it specifically states "adults." Most of these items I could see a child easily getting stuck up their nose, or swallowing on accident. An adult ending up with these things inside of them somehow feels less accidental and more...on purpose.

Here are seven strange items that have been found inside people's bodies. All of these things led to a trip to the Emergency Room. It shouldn't have to be said, but I'm going to say it anyways. Please, don't try any of these at home. Don't become a story.

According to Fox News, Dr. Marc Siegel once treated a 10-year-old patient whose nasal passage was clogged and causing them a lot of pain. Dr. Siegel says it took him a while to figure out that the child had stuck a battery up there. Dr. Siegel told Fox News, "Luckily, it didn't leak and we were able to get it out."

Fox News points out that someone had to go to the ER because they had an orange peel up their nose. Definitely not where that belongs. At least everything would smell good for a while...

Magnets are likely one of the most common items discovered in bodies, especially in younger people. Their shape can make them dangerous and easy to swallow. It's important to always pay attention to children around magnets. They can be swallowed, put up noses, in ears, basically anywhere you could think of!

Fox News mentions that someone had to visit the Emergency Room because they put a game piece from the game Battleship up their ear. While it may be off the board, and a good place to hide a ship from being sunk, it's not a smart idea. It can be stuck up their and difficult to get out. Another good reason to pay extra close attention when kids are playing games. Especially games with tiny pieces like Battleship.

Plastic items are commonly found in the body inside the Emergency Room. They can be found in the stomach, nose, ear, or anywhere you can imagine. According to Fox News, someone went to the ER because a plastic sword was stuck up their ear. That must hurt. Even though it's plastic it still has a pointy edge! Ouch.

Fox News says that someone had to go to the Emergency Room because they ingested a steak knife. I mean I've heard of the circus performers who swallow swords, but I don't think you're supposed to try that at home. Why would anyone try that? I wouldn't want to swallow a spoon, let alone a knife. Eek!

I've had some wild horrible dart throws in my day. However, even the worst throw only ends up on the wall instead of the board. I've never had a dart end up inside my body. It has happened, though. According to Fox News, someone has had to visit the Emergency Room because they ingested darts. Why would anyone think about putting a sharp object anywhere close to their mouth? I don't understand people...

I feel like I would have known! This is a crazy story!
