‘I still feel the bullets in my head’
James Myers survived being shot in the face five times.
James Myers survived being shot in the head five times in 2014 and still has three of the bullets lodged in his skull. Though James has managed to keep his sense of humour and a positive outlook, his life hasn’t been the same since the attack. He suffered from memory loss and PTSD. In 2016, his attacker was sentenced to 20 years in jail.
