Iam guessing it was not the sharp end that went in first.... So much about the 'running with scissors'..... (I am just assuming they faked that Xray! It's too yucky to accept it's real!)
If that makes you feel better, I guess you can, but they did interview the surgeon who extracted them.
of course only because it makes me feel better...like that infamous ER story (RL one that is) with the guy having a 6 inch or so hunting knife stuck in his skull, though it got there in a nefarious way, not by falling with scissors....
Sometime get an ER nurse to talk about lightbulbs and soda bottles... and where they have been taken out of. Or a corrections officer.
Somehow the line "I slipped and fell on it" is more believable in this case than most of the ones you're referencing
