D-sized breast implant stops bullet

After a gunman stormed a dental office and Simi Valley last year, Lydia Carranza has been recovering after being shot in the chest. Her doctor claims that it was her d-sized breast implants that saved her life.

From the LA Times:

Ghavami contends that the implant absorbed much of the bullet’s impact, limiting most of the damage to the breast itself.

“I saw the CT scan,” he said. “The bullet fragments were millimeters from her heart and her vital organs. Had she not had the implant, she might not be alive today.”

The hospital where Carranza was treated is not prepared to make that call.
