Stabed in the back

I would like to say this is one of my photoshop creations, but this is an actual photo (the best I can get from a camera phone,) of Brian Khairulla with a 7-inch compass sticking out of his back. He was working near the stacks on 4a when one of the insulators dropped a compass from about a hundred feet up. Mark Edwards and James were working next to him when they heard a thump. Mark attempted to remove the compass, but it seemed to be imbedded into a rib. Safety and Rescue workers imobilized the compass and transported him to Loma Linda where doctors plucked the compass from his back. By a stroke of luck, there were no organs affected and it had not actually hit any bone, but was imbedded in the muscle instead. Brian left emergency a few hours later with some bandages and some happy pills. Later we're going to buy him a six pack of Mikes Hard Lemonade for this little trick!
