Cape Town – Last week, a shocking video of a man with a knife stuck in his head went viral on social media.
As more and more people shared the video, they wondered how and where it had happened, and if the poor man had survived.
The Daily Voice tracked down the man and may reveal that the Mitchells Plain resident is alive and well and returned to work just three days after the bizarre incident.
Christopher Harker AKA Haka, 38, is well known at Rocklands Mall, where he works at T’s Liquor World, by the way, where the video was made.
The father-of-two says he was chilling in the downtown parking lot on November 11 when he felt something hit him on the head; little did he know it was a huge chef’s knife.
“A guy came out of nowhere, I felt a strong blow and started to chase him, then I realized that he had a knife stuck in the right side of my head,” he explains.
“I slowed down when I realized that it could do me more damage. I tried to get the knife out, but others told me to put it down and wait for an ambulance.
“I sat down and waited for the ambulance to arrive. When they arrived, I got in the vehicle and could still call my family to tell them I was going to the hospital.
“I walked into the hospital myself and people were looking at me in shock.
Christopher only found out about the video when the Daily Voice showed it to him.
“Yoh, the (this) is amazing, I can’t believe I survived this. I didn’t even know the video was being shared. Someone told me a day later that the video was broadcast throughout South Africa. “
Christopher now has four spots above his right eyebrow where the knife entered and was prescribed two pain relievers a day.
Groote Schuur Hospital spokesman Alaric Jacobs confirmed: “He came to the Trauma Unit at Groote Schuur Hospital on November 11th. He was discharged on November 13 ”.
SAPS spokesman Captain FC van Wyk said Mitchells Plain police are investigating an attempted murder case following a “stabbing incident around 12:23 pm on Caravelle Street, Rocklands, where a 38-year-old man was stabbed and wounded by an unknown suspect who is yet to be arrested. “
It is not the first time you have had a near death experience.
“Three years ago, I was shot seven times and told that I was pronounced dead at the scene. My family saw me with a white sheet covering my body, ”he recalls.
“I was lying in the rain on the street. Then I got up and went into the house closest to the one I was lying in.
“The ambulance came, tied me to a board and took me to the hospital.”
