A plum picking expedition nearly ended in tragedy for an 8-year-old boy who was impaled through the chest by a tree branch, which reportedly missed his heart by mere millimeters. Suresh Sakaram, of Pati, India, reportedly lost his footing while climbing a plum tree on Wednesday and fell onto a branch below, according to SWNS.

The tree branch, which measured 52-centimeters, went straight through his chest and out of his back. The fall broke several of the boy’s ribs and injured his lung, SWNS reported. However, despite his severe injuries, the boy allegedly managed to stand up and walk his 6-year-old sister hand back to their house before he collapsed.

Good for him. He was probably afraid she might get raped if he walked home alone. He was probably also afraid he might get raped if he collapsed anywhere but at home.
 
Wow, he is a brave little dude. No wonder he's trusted with his younger sister, because he takes his responsibility so seriously.
 
Looks about right for 52 centimeters to me. 52 millimeters would only be a couple of inches, and it looks way longer than that in the photo.
 
I didn't even think about what you were thinking, ha ha. That you meant diameter didn't dawn on me even though I know you always know what you're talking about. :D
