Bullet Deflector Bra

A woman that lives on the west side of Detroit watched how some youths were breaking into a house next door while her neighbor was away and the house was left alone. Police believes that a member of the gang saw her looking out of the window at them, and shoot her. The bullet smashed the window and hit her, but instead of accomplishing its purpose of killing the 57 year old woman, the bullet was deflected off the wiring in her bra. The suspects then drove away after shooting.
Her name was not mentioned, but the woman was taken to the hospital and amazingly was released the same day. “It did slow the bullet down, she sustained injuries but they’re not life-threatening.” Said a police spokesman. Police in Detroit added that one of the three intruders fired a shot when the woman looked out of her window and saw them raiding the house.
Local police Eren Stephens Bell told the Detroit News: “We need to get some bulletproof vests made from that. It is some strong wire.”

Luck, or Not?

Something weird has been going on with the Croatian music teacher Frane Selak. Optimists would consider these events as a blessing, while pessimists as a curse. Frane Selak was born in 1929, and is well known for his extreme luck in fatal accidents and spectacular escapes; although there is actually no evidence that support his claims has been discovered.
His first near-death experience began on January in 1962, when Selak was traveling to Dubrovnik on a train. He had no idea what was about to come next. The train suddenly plunged into the icy river while traveling, which resulted in 17 casualties. Frane managed to escape with nothing more than a broken arm, and some minor bruises.
In 1963, this man was flying from Zagreb to Rijeka when the door abruptly was blown away from the cockpit of the plane, and he was blown off into the sky. This time the accident resulted in 19 casualties, and Selak landed luckily on a haystack, and woke up in the hospital with minor injuries.
His third near-death adventure was on 1966 while traveling on a bus that crashed and plunged into a river. There were four casualties, and again, Frane cheated death once more escaping unharmed.
In 1970, he was driving when a faulty fuel pump caused his car to catch fire. Zelak saved his life again when he left the car before the fuel tank exploded.
A similar accident happened in 1973 when his car again caught fire and started to blow flames through the air vents. His only injury was the loss of much of his hair which was burned to the roots.
In 1995, he was in Zagreb, Croatia when a bus hit him causing him minor injuries.
The next year, while driving through a mountain road, Zelak drove off the a guardrail to escape an oncoming United Nations truck, and while falling landed on a tree while he watched his car exploding 300 feet below.
To finish the story, Selak won 1 million dollars in the Croatian lottery on 2003, and he is constantly nicknamed “Lucky” by his friends for all his lucky events.
