| Vienna : An Austrian man narrowly escaped death when he fell onto an open dishwasher and was speared by a knife, Kronen Zeitung newspaper reported. The 35 year old Tyrolean slipped on the tiled floor of a friend’s kitchen and fell backwards onto the machine’s cutlery basket. A 12-cm (five inch) kitchen knife drove itself into the man’s back, narrowly missing vital organs. He suffered serious injuries but his life is not in danger. |
