"It was a miracle. You know Turey was shot and fell into the sea right before my eyes, and that bullet hit his chest..."
Marvin pointed to the position of the heart: "Right here, I thought he was a goner, who could have imagined the bullet was only half a centimeter from his heart?"
Under the circumstances, Marvin could not think of any adjective other than a miracle.
Logically, Turey should have drowned in the sea if the bullet hadn't killed him, how could he have possibly survived?
After much consideration, Marvin could only explain it away with Turey's exceptional physical conditioning.
"Nicholas, what are you talking about?"
