An Indian teenager is recovering from a horrific bus crash that left him with a metal pole sticking out of his head. In the crash, a 4-foot length of safety rail went clear through the skull of Manit Rajpurohit and pinned him into his seat. Rajpurohit was freed and taken to a hospital where, surgeon Dr. Sharan Patil relates, “The first thing he said to me was, ‘Get this bloody thing out of my head.’” Miraculously, Patil said, the pole “missed every vital part” of Rajpurohit’s brain and was removed without causing further damage.
Tyra Banks doesn’t have a steady boyfriend because she won’t let anyone spend the night and see her without a wig. The 33-year-old model promotes a message of feminine strength and self-reliance on her daily talk show The Tyra Banks Show, but “is really insecure about her hair,” a source tells Celebrity News Service. “Tyra feels like guys are with her for her image that they see on TV and in magazines. If one wakes up without her glamorous hair, she’s worried he may not call back.”
