I'm still trying to figure out how the nail got in the roof of his mouth. When a guy at work shot himself in the foot, he sure as hell knew he he had a nail in his foot.

Those guns have a double safety. You have to depress the front of the gun before the trigger can be pulled.

My theories are he was horseing around and put the gun in his mouth and accidentally depressed the end without realising he had pressure on the trigger.

OR he was trying to kill himself with the nail gun.

I'm waiting for the details on this one. How does one not notice either the head of a nail, or a hole in the roof of your mouth? Really, has anybody ever chipped a tooth, or just bit their cheek hard enough to make an abrasion? You notice that stuff for days. And the smallest chip feels like you've taken a boulder sized chunk out of your tooth.

I'm just being my skeptical self on this one.
