This shows how the iron rod penetrated the skull of Phineas Gage. On Sept. 13, 1848, in Cavendish, VT, USA, an explosion drove a 3.5 foot long iron rod through the skull of railroad worker Phineas Gage, blinding one eye and changing his temperament- yet he lived another 12 years in good health!

And extinct species of snake, which lived in Colombian jungles 58 million years ago, could reach the lengths of 42 feet- longer than a bus!
