Woman Impaled By Tree Survives Bizarre Accident!
Filed under: Wacky, Tacky & True > If You Are Easily Offended.....

This is all kinds of CRAZY!
22-year-old Michelle Childers and her husband Daniel were taking a leisurely drive in the Idaho Mountains when Michelle was impaled in the NECK with a 13-inch spruce tree branch that crashed through one of their truck windows!
She was so shell-shocked she didn't even immediately realize what had happened, asking her husband, "Where is it?"
Michelle's life was miraculously saved after a 6-hour operation at St. Patrick Hospital in Missoula, Montana.
That looks SO unbelievably painful!
Luckily, Michelle is now recovering at home.
Get well soon!

lol merry christmas
OMGGG!!!!! That looks like it hurtssss
gah post a warning before you show those pics, my lunch almost came back up!
that looks so painful though, hope she recovers quickly and soon!
Talk about having a guardian angel!!
…dear God. Were they able to save the branch also?
I am glad she survived but this is not a medical blog and seeing this picture is just too disturbing.
Why does she look like Hailey Glassman?
HOLY FUCK can you please put a warning up???? i've been sick for a week and that did not help
OMFG, in her neck! whatthehell
Yikes! Glad she's going to be okay.
WTF!!!!!????
* I nearly had an accident on my White Cotton Panties !!!
HEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHE WIPEOUT!!!
OMGGGG WTF PEREZ??? CANT YOU GIVE WARNINGS?????
OMG, Perez! You should not put such pictures open like that! It should be under "Click here to see the bizarre photos" or something like that. I now have to scroll quickly on the page!
…Perez, you have had thicker things in your throat and no one was worried, right?
thats what happens when her husband is a rookie off road driver!!arghhhh!!!!
All I can say is WOW. That is unreal. She was on the Today Show this morning but I didn't stick around for the segment. I'm glad she is okay. She has quite a story to tell for the rest of her life! Unbelievable!
God bless her, but did you have to post the pictures???
Oh sweet jesus, that's insane!!!
holy shit!
Damn, I'm not that squeamish, but you could have filed that under an "if you are easily offended" tag.
next time just leave the picture for our imagination…
Holy Sh$%t someone was definately looking out for her
Mario you criptard..your site is so damn slow and you suck fat ones too!!!
Oh my goodness!!!! Can't believe she is even conscious in that photo. Good for her for getting through something like that and what super work that medical team did! Well done to everyone involved.
poor thing! glad she survived and is ok.
This happend on Grey's Anatomy on season to a guy! It's happened before.
oh man you should take this down, that picture is actually making me sick to my stomach. put it in a "if you are easily offended" section or something.
that is horrible bizarre, i hope she recovers well.
Ouch! I'm glad she's okay!
Re: karencarpenter – Heeheehee! Love that comment!
Re: karencarpenter – yup they killed the tree!! call peta!!1!
That's awful!!
dam hope u feel batter and wow ur my new hero
omg! Perhaps this could have been put into another link so people have the choice to see it or not…
Was anyone else reminded of Evil Dead here?
that sucks!!
there should be a warning before seeing these pics. thats disgusting.
This takes the expression "getting smashed outta your tree" to a whole new level.
that is sickening you need to put that behind a link because not everyone can stomach that.
WTF???????????? IS THIS FO REAL?
poor girl
guessing she aint gonna swallow for a while, her poor husband
she looks like stephanie pratt! wow
Right out of Grey's A. They had this shiz happened on that show. Glad she is alright. I would have freaked out!
Re: karencarpenter – lol!!good one!!
omg omg omg omg faint
WTF THIS IS olddddddddddddddddddddddd NEWS
EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
This is one you should have put under "Easily Offended!" I was not prepared to see that!!! Very disturbing!
Ummm Perez… You should have put this behind a cut… this is disturbing. I would have clicked on it, but lots of people don't want to come to your site to see something like that…. poor girl… OWW!
Jesus christ, Perez !!!!!!! I'm eating lunch - that photo should have been a "to see full pic, click here" deal . . . geez.
Please warn me next time. I just lost my lunch.
Re: karencarpenter – lmao @5 u crack me up karen!
*
but holy god! my fkn throat hurt once i saw that
To people who laugh…you ignorant BASTARDS!! I sincerely pray it happens to you. Fucking idiots have some sympathy she has a fucking tree impaled in her neck!!
holy shit
In this case, would we say she was shit out of luck, or lucky as shit?
LOL
OMG… if i was in that family, christmas jokes would be running to no end…lol
OOOOOOOOOOOO MMMMMMMMMMMMMM GGGGGGGGGGG
omg that looks so wierd, how can she even breath?:O
I'm glad to see this story. I'm from Libby, Montana and have been living in Idaho for going on 3 years now and it's nice to see stories close to my area. I remember watching this story on the new a few days ago. Its intense and super glad the girl survived!
Re: karencarpenter – comment of the day hun… u win !!
well, there goes my lunch…thanks perez!!
I've seen a few of these types of things on Discovery Health and TLC. I can't imagine going through that or being one of the doctors who is treating it. She sure is lucky.
Might just be me, but I don't find it disgusting or fear my lunch will come up. When I saw it I just stared for the few minute. I guess that's why I'm going into Nursing…
How does something like that "accidentally" happen while you're casually driving by? It looks like the branch was launched at her from a cannon or something!
That's insane! I go to the university in missoula, that's amazing she freakin' survived that.
She didn't feel it because of the adrenaline rush. That's crazy though! She's going to have one hell of a scar afterwards and i'm sure her esophagus will be damaged she might have to breathe out of a tube in her neck for awhile…
This needs to be under an easily offended header. SICK!
That's probably what Mario will look like when he finally meets Rumer Willis face to face.
ew why the hell is this on the main page…should be a freaking warning!
omfg this is way to crazy nd grossssss goo thing she survived
Holy crap that's disgusting!
Man that looks like it urts like hell
*shivers*
holy shit, i thought that was an actress doing a movie scene. thats crazy hope shes doing okay.
She will probably get her own reality or talk show, along with shark bite girl, and kate gosslind.
Holy Fuck!! Poor chica…
(
How did that not kill her?
When she walked into emergency they asked her "what seems to be the problem"
Daryl Hannah is calling this old growth forest and trying to force her not to have it pulled out.
Crazy! Brave girl
WTF
Well I was eating my breakfast
LOL the first comment from 3333 crack me up! LMAOOO
Why the fuck wouldn't you just post a link to these pictures? They're incredibly graphic… Thank God she's okay. Seriously, put up a warning.
OMG!!! thank god she is gunna be ok
Re: karencarpenter –
TRUE!
OMG ! i'm have an oversensitive neck…so i bet it must hurt…
wow, greys anatomy coming to life?!
EPIC
It's a miracle! Congratulations on surviving this, Michelle!! And she looks good, by the way.
WTH???? can you not put those pictures after a jump???? disgusting…i'm so grossed out right now.
i mean, i'm happy she survived, but UGH…yuck.
OMG! :O
She was very fortunate that the branch did not hit her in the face. I wish her a speedy recovery!
omqq :O ouch !
And you show us you asshole?! What happened to your offensive pic warnings..
I have always had a huge fear of driving behind a truck that was carrying items that could come loose. Or utility trucks with ladders attached. This is precisely why.
thats some splinter
Ow…
Perez, I think that you should have done like, a "Click here for the pictures. (Warning, they are gross.)" Type of thing. I really wish I hadn't had seen that.
disgusting ………………………
ugh! That picture has just burned into my head and will forever haunt me.. DISGUSTING!
oh god, i'm glad she's ok
too bad…she looked hot to
Weird.. No blood? Owie!! Poor girl.. Like a bad horror movie. aka "The Happening"
God bless her, goodness poor thing. Glad she made it out alive.
