I remember seeing a TV documentary about this many years ago.
The guy's survival was miraculous but the effects on his personality were very disturbing.
Apparently he recovered a lot later in life but then started having seizures and died. A really curious case overall.
Really weird. Especially given the state of medical science at the time. I'm surprised he did not die of an infection.
