A man's life was saved by....a nail????

haha that's messed up, and completely insane. But someone was indefinately watching over him, there's no way someone wasn't... You defiantely don't hear a story like this often, it's great, gives you a nice feeling to know that there's definately some kind of angels watching over the us.(At least some of us :P)

That is a really amazing story!! Someone had to be looking out for him. His life is not yet complete! I am surprised more so by his shirt not ripping! That is really cool...

It seems to be commonplace that something strange saves someone's life. Several instances of this are: A police badge saved the life of a police officer, because someone tried to stab him, but ended up stabbing the badge. In another case, a mugger tried to shoot a business executive, but a pen saved him. The bullet hit the pen & was deflected. I am sure that there are plenty of unreported cases like this out there about strange objects saving people's lives in some strange way or another.

I would definitly say that someone was watching out for him. He really must have something more to do in this world. I bet he won't take anything for granted in the future either after something like that. I know I wouldn't. It's amazing how something that small saved him that way. I'm sure he sent up a few thoughts of thanks.

you're right! someone is watching out for him! that is just amazing! and the nail would become a good luck token for the rest of my life if that happened to me!

A nail, i just can't believe it. But that man surely lucky to be survived. I bet he was really suprised to experience something like that too. Glad that he is okay.

Oh wow, what an amazing story. I so think that his angel was watching over him that day. That is just GREAT though. I am so happy he was saved and hung by a nail for goodness sake for 30 minutes.

God is the solution to him.

Wow that is a freaking miracle. Amazing, hu? Well God was definately looking after him. Incredible, a nail for 30 minutes, and held his weight.

Greatt..Nail saving a man's life.. How lucky is the man..

A nail !!!!!!!! intrasting , what can i think it can be happen but for 30 minutes it is just diffecult but can be possible ......... any thing can be happen in this world

I believe in miracles and that is what i called miracles.. haha.. Saved by the nail..and for 30 minutes. Definitely there is someone looking after that man..otherwise... It just like the story i read a few months back..when the little girl fall from the 11th floor and hit the ground.. but she still safe.. only experience minor injury. Hmm.. not only cats that have nine life..

well thats very lucky and unlikly looks like he owes someone big for lookin out for him i mean what are the odds of that hapening twice about 300,000,000,000 to 1 lol so if i fell out my window i would never have that luck i would just splat and hit the ground BOOM! lol P.s what a lucky guy wut does he got a 4 leaf clover in his sock or sumthing Low

I've watched the news on TV. The old man was really scared a lot. I haven't seen the nail but i'm sure it must be a big one.

We if your asking if I believe if angels or some higher power saved him then I say no I just think the man was incredibly luck to survive and have that nail hold on for so long. It was a pretty amazing story though so thanks for sharing with all of us.

Just shows you that you do not go before your time. In this age of technology we will probably hear more of this kind of news. I am glad for him, as I do honor older people. We can learn so much from them and we sadly need it in this time we live in. Thanks for sharing this since this positively is soooo needed by me this week.

How luckys that,? it seems it wasn't his time, evan at 85.

Bless him hey, he definatly has a gaurdian angel watching over him the lucky bloke, and 85 years old sheeesh his lucky his heart held out for that long hehe...sorry no offence here to the elderly ;) Thanks for sharing x

Wow. What a lucky man! I would have been absolutely terrified.

Wow! That is truly amazing! Thank you for sharing that story. :)
