Re: Extreme X-Ray Images
Last month, 8-year-old Haley Lents of Indiana swallowed 10 magnets and 20 steel balls from a Magnetix toy set. The magnets and balls attracted one another within her digestive tract, ripping a total of eight holes in her intestines and forcing her parents to rush her to the hospital for emergency surgery. Lents later told reporters that the magnets and steel balls "looked like candy."

Re: Extreme X-Ray Images
A 2-year-old from Minnesota was treated at the Mayo Clinic in December after she tripped and fell on a screwdriver. The tool entered her head above her left eye. Fortunately, doctors were able to remove the screwdriver without surgery, and the girl escaped without major injury, according to media reports.

Re: Extreme X-Ray Images
The 5-centimeter nail shown in this X-ray was found after a man came to a Seoul, South Korea, hospital complaining of a severe headache. After examining and interviewing the man, doctors speculated that the nail had been the result of an accident four years before his visit, but that the man did not know the nail was lodged in his head.

This X-ray reveals a cell phone lodged in a Salvadoran prisoner's lower intestine. According to news reports, the man is one of four prisoners who are members of the Mara Salvatrucha street gang. The men were caught with cell phones, spare chips and a charger that they had attempted to smuggle, according to authorities at San Salvador's Zacatecoluca prison.

Re: Extreme X-Ray Images
Damn. I thought it was bad when my then 8 year old daughter "accidentally" swallowed a magnetic ball from the Magnetix set. (Daughter said the ball rolled off her dresser and fell in her wide open mouth and down her throat. |
