oldwomanc6 38 #51 April 13, 2013 Quote Quote And, After a CReW dive gone bad, riding a streamer in from 500 ft. It's amaizing how long a couple of seconds can last!!! Having half my main collapse at 100'. I know what you mean about the seconds dragging by. I really didn't know if I was going to live or not and the suspense was killing me. Believe it, or not, the suspense is never the killing factor. I encountered a dust devil at Elsinore at about that same altitude under a Piglet. It picked me up threw me in the blender, and deposited my canopy at the same time my head impacted. During the 30 or seconds that it took to whack me, I just knew bad things were coming my way. I was very lucky, I ended up with just a bad headache, and half a body that was black and blue. Thank goodness, Elsinore regularly plowed their fields lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rifleman 61 #57 April 13, 2013 A friend of mine swears that a kick in the balls is more painful than having a baby. His justification for this point of view is that after nine months to a year a woman goes ahead and has another baby but you don't see men running round saying "Hell yeah, give me another kick in the balls!"Atheism is a Non-Prophet Organisation Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
strife 0 #58 April 13, 2013 They say kidney stones and pancreatitis is worse than labor pains as well, I know the pain meds didnt help at all and was put into an induced coma for 3 weeks with pancreatitis Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wmw999 2,116 #59 April 13, 2013 I've heard from someone who had both kidney stones and a baby, that the kidney stones were worse. Dunno if she had an epidural for the baby Wendy P. There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence.

oldwomanc6 38 #60 April 13, 2013 That reminds me of the age-old question: Which man is more content; A man with a quiver-full of children or a rich man? A rich man is more content, because you don't hear him saying "I need more children to feed," but you never hear the rich man saying "I have all the money I need."lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Krip 2 #64 April 13, 2013 Quote Quote I had a C-section -- yeah, that came with anesthetic Wendy P. That has got to hurt! I had the pleasure of at least 3 kidney stones all on different occasions. The first-time was a bitch because it hurts so bad, you don't a clue what broke, and you think your going to die. When the second stone hits we know it's another stone, it will pass, and we, re not going to die on the spot. No big , drink plenty of water, and run up and down the stairs.R.One Jump Wonder Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MrCat 0 #68 April 13, 2013 Big crash on a cross country mountain bike. Night ride, catching the lead rider, didn't see a big hole, as soon as the bike dissapeared there was nothing to light the track so I didn't know when I was going to hit the ground. I was in the air long enough to think "this is going to hurt" and it did...Jump more, post less. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
