I get it about the nigh indestructible eye, but this? How did the eye get out of this unharmed? I mean – aside from being popped out of the eye socket…
I think this man took a mighty machete blow to the face. You can tell a single slash by a sharp object with long blade cut its way through his face and parts of skull. There wasn’t any backstory as to what lead to this extensive craniofacial (affecting face and skull) trauma, but it messed him up good.
The blow sliced victim’s jaw in half, exposing separated sets of teeth with the tongue between them. It also sliced off part of his left cheek bone but even though it scratched the surface of the upper skull, it did not cut into the brain. That clearly saved the man’s life, but left him with insanely extensive craniofacial trauma.
No problem for a team of neurosurgeons, plastic surgeons and ophthalmologists from Yamakanmardi Village in Belgaum District, India who patched this man up into the Frankenstein creature you can see in one of the photos. Impressive job, considering how extensive the damage was. The patient will have a bad ass scar for the rest of his life to remind him of the event.
