Accused of cheating, teenager gets a knife lodged in his skull.
There's nothing worse than becoming the victim of a wall hack. Check that. Getting a rusty 12-inch knife driven into your skull is worse. Much worse. Just ask the kid who lived to tell the tale after being accused of using a wall-hack in Counter-Strike.
Gaming site Sanaku Complex broke the bizarre story, which recently took place in a net cafe in the Chinese province of Jilin. A group of teens in the cafe noticed another player was using a wall hack and confronted him. A fight broke out, and the 17-year-old cheater ended up with a knife lodged in his skull.
Somehow, the teen not only didn't die, he never lost consciousness. The boy was rushed to the emergency room, and after 10 hours of surgery, the blade was successfully removed. From Sankaku:
According to doctors, the blade missed major arteries, which kept him from hemorrhaging, and managed to somehow avoid affecting motor skills even though the blade passed through areas that handle those functions.
The boy is now under observation in the hospital's recovery ward.
Although he would be kinda old/dead now I'd imagine.
