I heard this story in my hometown, and it happened for real!. this guy wanted to kill this other guy with a magnum !.357 and the other guy didnt realize that the guy with the gun was following him and the guy with the gun shot the other guy in the rear of the head, and the other guy started running, then the guy with the gun started chasing him and shot the other guy again in the head, and the guy kept running, it took three shots in the head to finally kill the guy!. isnt that unvelievable!? I know it happened because that day I was taking a shower and I heard the three shots, and when I finished taking a shower, I went to the street and saw the body!. I live in Puerto Rico, and the houses dont have air conditioner, so the windows remain open, and you can hear whatever happens in the outside!. if you are wondering how i heard the shots!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Absolutely!. There is no guarantee that the shooting victim is going to be 100% ok, but, yes it is very possible to live after being shot in the head!. I have seen and am familiar with a gentleman who was out of the country for sometime when he was shot in the head by a stranger and survived!. Although in a wheel chair he understands and has a device to help him respond to those who are talking to him!. No, he is not fully 100% functional, but, he is alive!. There has been a case or two that I have read in the news and what not of people who have been shot in the head and have come out just fine with no apparent signs of being shot in the head!.

As for those who are shot point blank with a gun directly to the head, I believe it is litterally impossible to survive because in this case the brain has no chance of survival!.

Hope that this helps you!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

The person would have to be extremely lucky!. I have heard of it happening though, many times they are just grazed by the bullet or it only goes in a little bit!. If the bullet is too far in and they can't surgically remove it, which in almost all case is impossible, then you would most likely die from it!.
General Hospital may not be the best place to see anything medically realistic, no offense to the show!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Oh sure, in fact there have been some even worse cases (7 inch knife through the brain, nail through the eye) that people come out of just fine!. It depends on where the bullet hits and what kind of bullet it is!. If you don't bleed to death, and the bullet doesn't hit near the base of the head where all the life support is, you can get through it with varying levels of brain damage, including barely any change at all!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

yes it is very possible, actually, many people in the first World War were shot in the head, because it was an easy shot when they took their heads out to aim with their guns, and many of them survived!. They were deformed very badly though, and that's when plastic surgery began to become as famous as it is nowadays :)Www@Answer-Health@Com

i saw a do-cu on a guy who had a lot of his head missing so much so that his kid brothers were throwing around a ball made of rolled socks and they completely disappeared they searched everywhere until they noticed them sitting in the hole in their brothers head it was a truly amazing do-cu to the ways in which a human body can adapt
edit i found some info on the boy from the docu and a photo altho it looks as tho between the docu being made and the photo more reconstruction has been done but its still evidently alot missing and from a gun shot
