Breaking Skulls and Records
Reports confirm that Michael Hill has secured the Guinness World Record for the “Largest Object Removed From Human Skull,” a peculiar and unwelcome achievement. His resilience came to the fore when he endured a knife assault on April 25, 1998, wherein a 20 cm (8 in) survival knife became lodged in his brain. Astonishingly, he managed to journey to a neighbor’s residence post-attack, maintaining consciousness despite the daunting intrusion into his brain matter. Regrettably, the incident left him grappling with memory impairment and the partial loss of function in his left hand. Michael Hill’s compelling saga garnered attention on the TLC network’s program “Trauma: Life in the E.R.”
