Скачать или смотреть The Execution Survivor: Shot 9 Times by a Firing Squad (Including the Head) - Wenseslao Moguel

Discover how a Mexican rebel transformed from a corpse in a pile of bodies into a living medical curiosity, as Wenseslao Moguel survived a formal execution by federal troops during the Mexican Revolution, including a final coup de grâce shot at point-blank range.This grim survival story traces the events of March 18, 1915, featuring the firing squad of nine soldiers who pumped bullets into his body, the officer who delivered the final mercy shot behind his ear which managed to destroy his jaw but missed his brain stem, and the agony of waiting for the soldiers to leave so he could crawl away to safety.Through the photographic evidence of "El Fusilado" (The Executed One) showing the crater in his face, his later career touring with Ripley's Believe It or Not! where he allowed audiences to touch the bullet holes, and the medical analysis of how the bullets missed vital organs by millimeters, this narrative reveals the chaotic brutality of the revolution and the sheer luck required to cheat death ten times in ten seconds, ultimately proving that a bullet to the head is not always a sentence to the grave.
