Look at it! You think you’ve had a close call?!?! This is a close call! The would be victim in this case showed up at a Mallha, East Gouta Syria hospital seeking treatment after a sniper attack saying he’d been shot through the ear. No word on whether or not his hearing is intact but, if his was a rifle wound, the fact his head is still largely in tact and he’s not pushing up daisies is a miracle by any measure. One cannot calculate the odds of being at exactly the right angle and having the bullet pass through on just the right trajectory as to pierce this man’s ear without hitting any other part of his body or killing him outright. They said God only looks after children and fools. The man is obviously no child so we guess if he does not take this as a clue that it is time to get out of Syria, he is a fool.

Occasionally, a twitch from an itch will save your life… or favorable windage.
Yikes!
