Melbourne, Nov 13 (ANI): A drunk husband tired of his wife's constant nagging over his boozing hammered a 8-inch nail into his own head.

The 66-year-old Lin Ma from of Yuyi, southern China couldn't put up with wife Su's diatribe and took the drastic step.

He was rushed to the Shantou Medical College where doctors removed the nail - which has narrowly missed his brain - from his skull.

The Courier Mail quoted Lin as saying: "I thought life wasn't worth living so I tried to end it. I woke up with a very bad headache - worse even than the biggest hangover I've ever had." (ANI)
