MAN SHOOTS 3½ NAIL INTO BRAIN AND FINDS OUT 24 HOURS LATER VIDEO
Gail Glaenzer often teased accident-prone fiancé Dante Autullo about their long engagement, joking that she wanted to marry before he hurt himself too badly. “I told him, I want to get married while your face is pretty for wedding pictures,” she said.
Thursday morning, Autullo awoke at Advocate Christ Medical Center following surgery to remove a 3½-inch nail he accidentally shot into his brain -- not even aware that he had -- while working in his Orland Park garage on Tuesday morning.
“He got real close to his face,” Glaenzer said this morning, finally able to joke about the situation.
As of Friday morning, Autullo was awake and talking after an operation that removed the nail and replaced a contaminated piece of his skull with a patch of mesh and plate of titanium. “All things considered, he’s doing 100 percent,” Glaenzer said. Autullo is expected to remain in the hospital another three days.
Autullo didn’t even realize what he had done until an X-ray showed the results some 36 hours later. He had thought the nail whizzed by his head. There was only a small mark, and it wasn’t until he felt nauseated the next day that Glaenzer took him to an immediate care center for a checkup. “I can’t wrap my brain around the fact he had a nail in his,” Glaenzer said.
Autullo’s nail gun, she said, fires when the trigger isdepressed and a sensor at the head of the gun flattens against a surface. This time, the gun recoiled, bringing it up against his head. Autullo saw a small wound, but thought it came from his contact with the nail gun. “He sent me a picture right after it happened,” Glaenzer said. “He said, 'I shot myself accidentally. . .I heard it shoot past my ear.’ I asked, ‘Did you see it (the nail) on the ground?’ He said ‘no.’ He’s like, ‘Well, there’s other crap on the ground.’ “He thought the teeth of the sensor cut him because it hit his head real quick,” she said.
Autullo continued working but woke up after a nap Wednesday feeling nauseated with a nasty headache. “When he got up he looked horrible, he did not feel good at all,” Glaenzer said. “His head hurt – I asked him what his pain was on a scale of 1 to 10 and he said 14. And he was nauseous.”
They went to the immediate care center and eventually to Christ Medical Center. Glaenzer credited their family with rushing to their side, and her sister for watching the couple’s four children.
But at the hospital, Autullo’s brother passed out while the surgeon explained potential risks of the surgery. “Between the two of them, (they) almost killed me,” she said.

MAN WINS LAMBORGHINI, WRECKS IT HOURS LATER VIDEO
The Thrill Of Victory. The Agony of Defeat. Rarely does one person get to experience such highs and lows within mere hours of each other, but when it happens, the comedown is often all the more painful. Just ask Santaquin, Utah resident David Dopp. The Frito-Lay truck driver won a green Lamborghini Murciélago LP640 Roadster, grand prize in the "Joe Schmo To Lambo" contest operated by Maverik gas stations and teamgive.org last month.
Dopp, father of six, was finally presented the car on Saturday afternoon, after which he set about driving it around the neighborhood, giving rides to friends. His elation wouldn't last. Less than six hours after taking delivery of the Lamborghini, Dopp lost control of the 640-horsepower Italian, hopped a curb and spun it into an embankment 75 feet from the road. A witness, Miles Davis (yes, really), said that skid marks were evident on the road and that the car ended up facing the wrong direction. Neither Dopp nor his friend in the passenger seat were injured.
Police say the accident was likely "speed-related," although Dopp reportedly says he was only doing 40-50 mph when he lost control of the car on a section of road with a 35-mph speed limit. Dopp maintains he might have hit some black ice or gravel.
While the extent of the damage to the Lamborghini is not immediately clear, local publication InSantaquin News notes that Dopp has full insurance.
