By taking the x-ray from the front, the entire knife is within the frame of his skull. The hilt of the knife appears to be right at the edge of his nose. For my part, the kid's a hero.

If you get stabbed with something, and you can still walk around, do not touch it! It's always when someone yanks it out that stuff starts gushing or spraying! That's what I learned from watching tv!

I am guessing the same concept would apply to the children of Afganistan and I am guess surviving a devestating knife attack would boost my self esteem. I wonder if Afganistani chicks dig scars?
