This Wild Picture Of A Colorado's Man's Fake Chain Is Going Viral Because It Literally Saved His Life
A man in Commerce City, Colorado can thank his (likely) fake metal chain for saving his life.
^That's not the man, but this is what happens when you search for "man wearing a silver chain" on Getty Images.
According to the Commerce City Police Department, "This silver chain-- approximately ten millimeters in width-- is likely the only reason the victim of a shooting we responded to yesterday is still alive."
"The .22 caliber bullet was fired during an argument and would have ended up in the victim's neck had it not instead become lodged in the chain he was wearing." The post continued. "As a result he suffered only a puncture wound."
"Side note-- we don't know what kind of metal this is, but it's likely not pure silver. We looked it up... and silver is soft. So maybe think twice before you knock a knockoff."
As this person said, "Real jewelry could never."
