Darwin award.... close miss

Torino Italy
a lucky clever guy impales himself in the neck with a crossbows dart .... and survives  (A)
he was cleaning the crossbow when accidentally the dart released
the dart passed through the thyroid arteria and broke a vertebra without damaging the spinal cord but he was conscious and could speak at the emergency hospital
He's possibly both the luckiest and smartest guy on earth   )-w(

Not so sure about the smartest part GlisGlis. Maybe we need a emoji for that guy. Never mind probably not. I have always wondered how people could shoot themselves cleaning their guns. How do you even clean a gun with a bullet in the barrel?🤔 Now a crossbow gee I guess I'm just not very bright.
