Man regains sight after horse headbutt...

A SECOND World War veteran who was blinded in his right eye when he was hit by shrapnel can see again after being head-butted by a pedigree racehorse.

Full Story

Now only if I can be head-butted by a horse so that I can gain precognition of the lottery numbers...that would be cool.

That's wild! Good find, nice story. Just one more way that animals are so special. I'm going to go out and give my horse an apple and a back rub now, he deserves it...

it's pretty well documented that blount force trauma can repair impaired eyesight...they just dont know why it happens. i've seen many reports of blind individuals who, after being struck by lightning, could suddenly see again (or for the first time). good find though!

Yeah I thought it was cool too. I just keep picturing the horse headbutting the guy like "put the collar on yourself sucka." A video of this would be priceless!
