I’m guessing this guy was ‘hammered’.

At first he ignored it because of the sticker on the mirror that read, ‘objects stuck in your head in the mirror may be closer than they appear’.

The moral of this story is ‘don’t look in the rear view mirror!’

“Luckily for him, the tool missed his brain and became lodged in his frontal lobe”
Whut?
This story reminds me of Keith Richards (Rolling Stone) falling out of a coconut tree a while back.
Lucky for him he landed on his head.

Report doesn’t mention which side of the cranium the screwdriver came from. Better take an MRI to see if they missed something.

The Screwdriver wasn't sterile so it wasn't ready to be put in direct contact with the brain So ,what procedure do Polish Hospitals have that requires a Screwdriver to be in direct contact with the Brain?
I thought 'Screw loose' was just a metaphor!
Ahhh!

Phillip needs to be more careful with his tool.

Not the first time a man’s tool almost got him killed.

Next time I misplace something, such as my sawzall, I'm going to look in my car mirror in case it's stuck in my head.

So true. When the weather is bad we like to watch the Investigation Discovery channel. Tools get fellers killed on there all the time.

The old story of Phineas Gage (who had a crowbar blown through his head) shows that massive head damage doesn’t even necessarily result in loss of consciousness.

Talk about being screwed. I’d still rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy. If he’d kept going, he would have gotten the full Rose Marie Kennedy.

About 25 years ago I actually had something similar happen to me, but on a smaller scale.
I was cleaning rust off of a metal part with a wire wheel on a bench grinder. I felt something hit me in the forehead and I stopped momentarily to look in a mirror, but I couldn’t see anything. A week later I developed a a pimple-like bump that started to itch. Another 2 weeks went by before it started looking worse. That’s when I went to a doctor. At first he though it was a small boil and tried to lance it, That’s when we discovered something hard and metallic in the center. He gave up trying to use tweezers and grabbed onto the end of the metal with a pair of needlenose pliers. What came out was a 2 inch long wire that had come loose from the wire wheel.

The impact was so hard the screwdriver managed to penetrate five centimetres into the front of his head. Luckily for him, the tool missed his brain and became lodged in the frontal lobe of his cranium.So then the frontal lobe is not part of the "brain" there in Poland???
You can dig 5 centimeters in and not find any brain matter???
