Sword-Swallower Was Injured Swallowing Swords
A sword swallower from San Diego was hospitalized after sustaining serious injuries . . . swallowing swords.
A local San Diego, sword swallower named Scott Nelson, also known as “Murrugun The Mystic” had to undergo some pretty crazy medical procedures. Some swords he swallowed sliced his abdominal cavity, and a lobe of his liver was pierced!
Doctors did not think that Nelson was going to survive. He spent over a month in the hospital, unable to eat solid food and a large portion of one of his lungs removed.
It sounds like he’ll survive, and he set up a GoFundMe for help with his medical bills.
