Just a couple of days ago while talking to my best friend, we were having one of our ‘wouldn’t it be so cool if..’ kind of conversations, we ended up discussing all that we would do if we were filthy rich. And to our surprise, discussing the possible surgeries that we might opt for once we have enough money to spend on such things came rather naturally to us, thanks to the Kardashians perhaps. From a botox to cheek implants, we talked about everything, ultimately settling to down to the idea that I would do well with perky breast implants. Especially after today, when the news of how breast implants on a lady saved her from a gun shot.
In a kind of a startling piece of news, the word about a woman surviving a close range gun-shot has gotten around. That by itself isn’t amazing, what is amazing is the fact that it was her silicon breast implants that deflected the bullet and saved her life. The study around this case revealed how this 30-year-old woman, who was shot point blank, was saved as the silicons changed the course of the bullet.
Surgeon Giancarlo McEvenue, who studied this said, “The implant caused the change in the trajectory of the bullet.” He further said, “The bullet wound entry was on the left breast, but the rib fracture was on the right side. The bullet entered the skin on the left side first, and then ricocheted across her sternum into the right breast and broke her rib on the right side,” ultimately saving her life.

The event took place in 2018 in Toronto, only recently found its way back into the news, giving us quite some food for thought, as we discover such hidden and new benefits of having done a breast implant. In fact, the study further elucidated how the two types of silicone shells – one with saline and one with saline gel, are both effective in slowing the speed of the bullet and deflecting shot gun pellets respectively.
And considering the woman who was shot, reportedly walked herself to the hospital and was talking even after being shot, gives us enough reason to opt for it when the time comes. After all, with such two in one benefits, of having a killer cleavage and dodging a killer, it seems to be the breast option available!
