Holy Ouch!
A construction worker had six nails driven into his head in an accident with a high-powered nail gun, but doctors said Wednesday they expect him to make a full recovery.
but wait, it gets better:
"He is basically normal," Quinonez said.
If my doctor said I am basically normal after having six nails in my brain I'd go to a new doctor!

Boy is that guy lucky...........
Nail guns have a switch where you don't have to pull the trigger, all you have to do is tap it against the serface that you want to nail and the gun will shoot a nail. Normally the recoil is enough to bounce the gun back so that it will only shoot one nail, but if the guy was laying on it, 6 shots one after the other...........
