'I thought I’d die as claw clip cut into my scalp in car crash' Curiously
A student teacher feared she'd die when a hair clip sliced through her scalp and lodged in her head for two hours after a horror car crash.
The impact of the crash rammed the claw clip into the back of Jeena's head until 'most or all' of the hair accessory was embedded skull-deep in her flesh. Jeena, from Derby, Derbyshire, said: "It's sad to say but I kind of thought I was going to die."She added: "When the car started crashing the claw clip wedged into the back of my head. Then the car roof clamped down into my head, so it was a joint effort from both. It was just really painful.
After the crash Jeena crawled out of the car's shattered window and was able to flag down a driver in a passing car, before passing out. Jeena regained consciousness to find that a concerned passer-by had called her parents and the paramedics who drove the injured student to Queens Medical Centre in Nottingham, where the 10cm-long clip was removed.
She said: "Because I work in a school, I keep my hair up in a claw clip at the back because I can't be bothered to brush it. I didn't know wearing a claw clip while driving was a problem until I had the accident. It has definitely deterred me from wearing claw clips."
