"Double Wahala"; Man Who Survived 9/11 Attacks In The US, Also Escapes Death In The #ParisAttacks

This has got to be the luckiest man alive. An American man who ran for his life 'through half of Manhattan' when terrorists attacked the World Trade Centre in 2001 has survived another massacre after being shot during the assault on the Bataclan concert hall in Paris.

The 36-year-old man, who has only been identified as Matthew, managed to crawl to safety despite having been shot in the leg by ISIS militants who stormed the Eagles of Death Metal concert and massacred 89 people.

On hearing gunshots, which unlike many others he recognised instantly - 'Perhaps it's my American culture', he said - he ran for the exit.But he was shot in the calf and fell, surrounded by bodies. Slowly, he managed to inch towards safety each time the attackers reloaded their Kalashnikovs.

As he emerged from the hall, and collapsed exhausted onto the street, he was rescued by Le Monde journalist Daniel Psenny, who had been filming the attack from his flat across the street.
