Worker survives bar through skull
A 24-year-old Brazilian construction worker survived after a six-foot
metal bar fell from the fifth floor and pierced his head.

Doctors at Rio de Janeiro's Miguel Couto Hospital removed the bar from
Eduardo Leite's skull during a five-hour-long operation, the Globo TV
network reported.

Hospital spokesman Luiz Essinger said Mr Leite was lucid and showed no
ill effects of the operation.


He doesn't look very healthy in that picture!
