Would you harm yourself to escape a death trap? During the Battle of Stalingrad, a German soldier shot his own foot because it might have been the only way to get out alive.

Surrounded by Soviet forces in the brutal winter of 1942, the German Sixth Army had no way to retreat. Supplies dwindled and morale crumbled. A handful of transport planes were still flying, but priority went to the wounded. In desperation, some soldiers injured themselves just enough to be classified as casualties, hoping for a seat on a plane and a chance at survival. This is a haunting snapshot of how far humans will go when trapped between certain death and a painful escape.
