A 10-year-old boy who impaled himself after falling face-first onto a 12-inch meat skewer survived, thanks to “one in a million” luck.

Xavier Cunningham was playing in a tree house with friends on Sept. 8, when yellow jacket wasps bombarded them, causing him to fall 4 feet off the ladder, landing on a metal meat skewer sticking straight up.
