By the grace of whatever watches over wrestling matches in South Dakota, Madison High School wrestler Michael McComish emerged nearly unscathed after an 80-pound spotlight fell on him during a match Friday against Chamberlain High. All he received were stitches on his head, the station said, not to mention a surging amount of viewers watching the incredible footage on YouTube. His parents couldn't believe what happened, and neither could McComish. "At first, I said to myself 'what just hit me?,'" he told KSFY. "It was really bright. I noticed all the glass. I was like, OK, this isn't good." As footage of the freak accident quickly made the rounds, McComish tweeted his recovery after the match. Writing as @Comish69, he wrote, "Just letting everyone know I'm fine! Stitches in my head. Gash on forehead and back of me head and little cuts from the glass nothin serious."
