Pictured is Jacob Miller, a veteran of the American Civil War. In one of the battles that took place on September 19, 1863, he was shot right in the forehead. His squad, deciding that their comrade had died, left his body on the battlefield. After Miller woke up among the dead, he independently caught up with the retreating squad. After being wounded, he lived for 54 years. 17 years after the memorable battle, a piece of lead fell out of Jacob's wound, a few years later another one, and so, for 14 years, the bullet gradually left the body.

Oil platform crash in Norway, 1980
The Alexander platform was not engaged in oil production, but served as a dormitory for workers who extracted oil on a neighboring platform.
On the evening of March 27, 213 people rested there after a shift. A storm was raging overboard: the wind at a speed of 74 km/ h was raising waves 12 meters high.
One of the six pillars broke, and after 15 minutes the whole structure collapsed on its side.
123 people died then.
