I thought this warranted it's own thread because this man is awesome!

Drunk Russian sleeps off knifing

A Russian man trying to sleep off a night of after-work drinking failed to notice a six-inch (15-cm) knife in his back - until his wife woke him up.

Yuri Lyalin, 53, took a bus home, ate breakfast and apparently slept like a baby before his spouse noticed a handle sticking out of his back.

He was rushed to casualty but doctors found no vital organs damaged.

His alleged attacker reported the crime to the police himself, Interfax adds. Mr Lyalin apparently feels fine and bears no ill-will.

"We were drinking and what doesn't happen when you're drunk?" he was quoted by Komsomolskaya Pravda as saying.

Quite weird that he managed to get on a bus without the driver or any passengers noticing, maybe they were all drunk too

Ha sounds about right for the Russians! I went over and stayed in Moscow last year - cheers! . The people I met were so friendly but hard as nails! We're so soft in the UK by comparison. Russia is definitely definitely worth a trip!
