Sept 9, 1945: Mike the Headless Chicken gets decapitated in Fruita, CO… and lives 18 more months.

Happy 80th birthday to #MiketheHeadlessChicken. He lived for 18 months after his head had been cut off, surviving because most of his brain stem remained intact and it did not bleed to death due to a blood clot.
