X-Ray X-Mas Tree Is X-tra Neat

Nick Veasey is a mad scientist-photographer who x-rays everything that falls onto his hands, including a Boeing 777. He did a new series for these holidays: gifts and Christmas trees photographed with his giant x-ray machine.
With this artwork you will never have to wait again for December 25 to find out what is hiding under the tree.
The artist Nick Veasey from Kent, UK, has a penchant for X-raying inanimate objects to find out what is inside.

"It's probably every child's dream to be able to have X-ray vision and see inside the presents before the big day,” Nick told the Daily Mail.
"I suppose it's better than shaking them to listen to what they sound like, as that can cause problems."
Using a scanner ten times more powerful than those found in airports and hospitals, he created these intriguing shots of Christmas gifts.
From high heels to iPhones, dolls to spanners - with Nick around, you never have to be surprised again.

Surgeons Extract Pen In Woman's Stomach 25 Years After She Swallowed It

This woman swallowed a felt-tip pen in 1986. Back then, she told the doctor and her husband what happened, but they didn't believe her. Now, 25 years later, she went to another doctor and they found the pen intact inside her stomach.
In fact, the pen was still working after they surgically extracted it, using a "combined endoscopic and ear, nose and throat procedure under general anaesthetic."
The doctors detected the pen following an MRI examination prompted by another stomach illness.
