ZombieWatch: Decapitated boy returns to car racing.

Hmm, maybe you shouldn't let a 12-year-old race cars. From Ananova:

A teenager who was 'decapitated' in a junior car race crash has amazed doctors by returning to the track.

Chris Stewart, 14, looked odds-on to die after his skull and neck were separated, reports The Sun.

Only six people in the world are known to have survived the injury - and Chris is the first to make a full recovery.

He underwent a seven-hour op to reattach his skull to his spine using titanium plates and screws.

Mum Debbie, 43, said: "We didn't know if he'd even survive, walk or talk. So it's unbelievable he's back driving again."

Chris was 12 when his car hit a barrier, trapping him, as he led the race in September 2006.

Paramedics steadied his head, a one millimetre movement either way could have killed him, and took him to Southampton General Hospital.

Doctors told Debbie and fiancé Paul Cornell, 50, that Chris had only a seven per cent chance of survival and the op was his only hope.

Nine months later he was walking - after learning to speak and eat. And doctors cleared him to drive earlier this year.

Debbie has outlawed car racing, but allows go-karting as it's "more controlled". Chris is now a regular at a track near his home in Fareham, Hampshire.
