Mugging victim Julia Popova calmly went home after being robbed on her way home from work - without realising she had a six inch knife stuck into her neck.
The 22-year-old office worker had grappled with her attacker when he snatched her handbag as she walked to her parents' home in the Russian capital Moscow.
But she was so shocked by the ordeal she didn't know that the thug had buried a kitchen knife in her neck just fractions of an inch from her spinal cord.
Her horrified parents rushed her to hospital where surgeons managed to remove the blade without damaging Julia's spine.
"Shock had kicked in and her body prevented her from feeling any pain. She simply walked home without feeling the knife in her back," said one medic.
There's a photo of the knife in the link.

Adrenalin is awesome. Your body recognises it's been stabbed but just doesn't want to bother you with that shit until things are under control. The human body is remarkable.

I remember watching something very similar to a woman with the same area affected many years ago on TV. Whether it's the same case or just a huge coincidence, I don't know.
Pretty crazy either way :/

That is a really gross picture. The human body is super weird sometimes.

I'm liking the news story underneath that one.

I do muay thai stuff, I haven't sparred hard yet at all, but from all the fighters and listening to them, they always say you feel very little during an actual fight, one said getting kicked hurts more in sparring with pads ON.

That pic is nuts!
short story: I broke my left arm when I was about 6.It was broken in two places, making my normally straight arm look like a Z. Anyway it was about a 20 minute drive to the hostpital give or take, and as were turning into the parking lot my mother tells me "dont look at your arm". I actually didnt even know it was broken, the instant i looked at it i felt the pain and started crying.

That's fucked up but I've seen it happen before (on TV of course), some middle aged woman walking around the supermarket with a massive blade sticking out her back. Adrenaline is pretty ridiculous.
