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.
