Man Fails To Notice 2.5 inch Nail in Head

A Kansas man who had a 2.5 inch nail shot into his skull has told American TV he did not even notice it.

Home renovator George Chandler said he only felt a sting.

He and his friend Phil Kern were using a nail gun to put up lattice work at his home.

The hose of the tool got caught and when Mr Kern tried to free it up, Mr Chandler stood up at the same moment the gun discharged.

After searching in vain for the rogue nail, Mr Kern spotted it sticking out of his friend's head.
