HA! When I was a paramedic we were called to an attempted suicide. Police already on scene, the guy was at his kitchen table.
The officer was gloved and applying pressure to his head. Come to find out, the attempt victim was conscience ,and talking just fine.
He said he was distraught over his wife and kids leaving, so he shot himself in the right side temple....he said, I noticed I wasn't dead, so I shot myself again on the left side of my head.
.22 Ruger....His first shot hit just above his temple and then skimmed under his scalp and exited just shy of his crown. The second shot...the same thing to the left side.
When he realized he wasn't dead again...he called us, because he felt God wasn't ready for him just yet..
ouch!! Nothing like a small caliber round or two rattling around in your head!
