Dante Autullo shoots nail into head and doesn’t notice (x-ray photos)

DANTE Autullo did not realise his nail gun had fired a 7.62cm nail into his head.

Says Dante Autullo, of Chicago:

“When they brought in the picture, I said to the doctor ‘Is this a joke? Did you get that out of the doctors joke file?’ The doctor said ‘No man, that’s in your head.'”

Autullo has undergone surgery at Advocate Christ medical centre in Oak Lawn. On the way to another hospital, he had the presence of mind to post a picture of the X-ray on Facebook.

Other doctors can now download the ‘nail’ photo and add it to that infamous joke file – between ‘nadsectomy’ and ‘nappy rash in adults’…
