The 47-year-old man walked into Molinette Hospital in Turin, Italy, with the arrow sticking out of his chest on Tuesday, according to ABC News.

It’s not clear how he got hit with the arrow, which doctors successfully removed and stopped the man from losing blood, according to the report.

They added the procedure was an “exceptional” success.
