I have never been spear fishing, but I would suspect this is NOT how it is done. Just a guess.

No, LC...my brother emailed me the picture. I can look around, if I find it I will post it. But you are a pretty good seeker of news stories, so if you could not find it...

you have to be careful with those things!

Medical experts have been left stunned after the stainless steel spear narrowly missed every major blood vessel in the brain of 16-year-old Yasser Lopez.

A dramatic X-ray scan shows part of the spear protruding from his skull after rescuers cut down 18 inches of the spear from the outside of his head to allow doctors to carry out a full radiographic examination.

The freak accident occurred on 7 June when Mr Lopez, of Miami-Dade County, Florida, was on a fishing trip with friends.

As the schoolboy’s friend loaded the speargun, the spear accidentally deployed, hitting him in the head.

The spear entered the teenager’s head two inches above the right eye and came out the back of his skull.

Lopez was then rushed to Jackson Memorial Hospital's Ryder Trauma Center where doctors were able to successfully remove the spear from his skull and brain.

When he arrived at JMH via helicopter, doctors said the main thing was to fight their urge to quickly yank out the imposing foreign object from the teen’s head. Instead, they used a rebar cutters and vise grips from the Miami-Dade fire department to stabilize the spear and eventually figured out how to remove the spear and its bulky tip.
