Gator said two guys that looked liked a couple of linebackers manually twisted the screws into his skull and attached a cage on his head so they could bolt him into the Gamma Knife machine. He sat there in that cage waiting for his surgery from 9:00am to about 3:00pm. The surgery before Gator’s took longer than expected…

They bolted the cage on Gator’s head to the table (looks like an MRI tube) and into a giant helmet so there would be no movement, the helmet had 201 holes in it. The radiation beams shoot through each little hole and by themselves won’t have any affect but when they join together at the targeted lesion they are very powerful!
