Amazing that the knife didn't hit anything major in his brain.
Except his brain.
If he had a full recovery with no brain damage that would be great but I wouldn't count on it. Your sentiment is solid though, at least he didn't die from it.

Nah...it's not as hard to do as you think. The difficult part can be getting the dammed knife back out...as the picture shows. The bones of the skull can "grab" the blade, requiring lots of work to get the thing out of the skull.
It's USUALLY much more effective than this case however...maybe the "stabber" should have wiggled the blade around and removed it. Then he'd have achieved the desired result...or given the "stabee" a good lobotomy. 😛
It's called sharp force trauma. It does interesting things to your cranial bones, different than blunt force or projectile trauma.

there you go, testimony, it doesn't quite hurt as much as you'd think.
Of course he didn't die. In CS, it takes like, 2 swipes.
not if you have no armor on😉 i also get the impression i kill more when i aim for the head., i never checked to confirm but it seems to work better that way.
