- This actually happened: An 88-year-old Frenchman walked into a hospital with a WWI artillery shell sticking out of his keister. The unfired round is eight inches long and more than two inches wide.
- The hospital had to be evacuated in case the man’s buttocks exploded, but bomb disposal experts said the ancient shell was not likely to go off.
- Doctors made an incision in the elderly man’s abdomen (ouch!) and removed the collector’s piece from his back door.
