Headshots don't work like they do in video games/ movies. A person has a 42% chance of surviving a penetrative wound to the head.

And there are also plenty of cases where a fatal head-wound didn't prevent someone from completing complex tasks before expiring.

Most of these myths trace back to Gary Webb, a journalist who committed suicide by shooting himself twice in the head. Credulous people think the CIA killed him to prevent him from making their cocaine dealing public. Even though his article exposing the CIA was widely debunked and 20years old.
