Xavier Cummingham is a 10-year-old boy from the US state of Missouri who got attacked by wasps. Fleeing the insects, he fell from a tree house, only to land directly on a foot-long metal meat skewer. The spike penetrated around six inches into his skull, but "miraculously" missed his eyes, brain, spinal cord and major blood vessels.
