Man sleeps through head shot

Sleepy man doesn't notice head shot
Tuesday, May 22, 2007

Following on from the story of the man who managed to stay asleep whilst being stabbed nine times come an even more impressive story of determined sleeping – a man in America who didn't wake up despite being shot in the head.

Michael Lusher, 37, of West Virginia was sleeping in his mobile home in the early hours of Sunday morning when an unknown gunman fired five bullets into the trailer and his truck. One of them struck Lusher in the head. But he didn't notice. He only became aware of the fact that he'd been shot about four hours later, when he woke up and spotted that there was blood coming from his head.

Fortunately for him, the bullet seems to have slowed down considerably as it passed through two walls before hitting him. Equally fortunately, Lusher had only just returned home from a long night out, and so was presumably slightly anaesthetised already. Cpl. R.H. McQuaid of the local Sheriff's Department said: 'We're just glad he didn't suffer any life-threatening injuries with a head wound.'

If you've never seen the film "I Love You To Death" with Tracy Ulman and Kevin Klein, I recommend it. It's based a true story and the guy who is shot in the head survives as well due to drugs and alcohol.
