mutumbo 0 #27 June 1, 2012 oh lord. lets see. . . ive got a ton. concussion sledding, by trying to stand up on the sled, 2 backflips later i hit the ONLY tree on the entire hill, solidly with the back of my head. road rash and tons of bruises from "car sledding" we towed a old car hood behind a car on a snowy/icy day. wound up wrapping it around a brick mailbox. scraped my chin trying to do a a doubble backflip on the diving board at the pool i worked at. i jumped UP instead of OUT, and almost face planted, i threw my head back JUST in time and clipped my chin. the guard in the chair thought i was a goner so she dove in as i hit the board, and once she found out i was OK she screamed at me for a good half hour for scaring her so much. umpteen thousand concussions from various mosh pits at heavy metal/punk concerts. broken hand from punching a idiot crowd surfer who thought it was a good idea to flail around seeing who he could hit while in the air, who ended up kicking me in the head. bouncer at the show saw it all, and threw him out, haha. cracked a few ribs falling out of a tree i was climbing. got hit by a sled laying behind a ramp we built. i thought it would be cool to have a friend jump over me on an untested ramp. snow wasnt packed well enough and he went THROUGH the ramp, and plowed into me good. not sure what i injured but i hurt like hell for a good week. numerous injuries from flipped 4 wheelers. the list goes on, ill see what else i can come up with later, EDIT: just remembered. when i was 8 i got hit in the head by a ceiling fan while leaning over the top of a bunk bed. knocked me out of the top and onto the floor. and i ripped my left earlobe in half by catching a horseshoe shaped earring on the top of a car door while getting in. thankfully my aunt is a doc who owns her own clinic. she got her PA to stitch me up.

BillyVance 34 #28 June 2, 2012 Quote Fell off a roof, two inch laceration on my left leg, mild concussion, and f`d up back (in bed for 4 days). Fell down a flight of stairs, broke 3 toes. Fell down a flight of stairs, injured back. Numerous cheerleading falls, 3 concussions and a mild contusion. Car bashing, slid on the underbody of the car into the wheel well (car was upside down), 3" laceration to my right leg. Leg wedged between a curb and corvette exhaust pipe - 2nd degree burns to the back of my leg. Not really an injury, but one of my not-so-bright moments... Overdosed on sleeping pills (I was 4 years old), passed out in my pancakes. Was sledding down the street in the winter, one of the neighborhood boys broke my nose. g Damn! Girl!

nigel99 143 #31 June 2, 2012 As a kid I fell headfirst into a metal garbage can, and got a big gash on my eye ( bled like a stuck pig) Broke my foot trying to put a C9 down near the clubhouse. Missed and landed on a busy road, the injury was sustained trying to run out a C9 landing to get off the road quickly... My son last week. Bmx from about 4 foot in the air, managed to land all his weight on the tip of his thumb between the handlebars and ground. Ripped the nail off and crushed the bone...Experienced jumper - someone who has made mistakes more often than I have and lived. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sapphire 0 #32 June 2, 2012 QuoteMy son last week. Bmx from about 4 foot in the air, managed to land all his weight on the tip of his thumb between the handlebars and ground. Ripped the nail off and crushed the bone... Ouch! I did that when I was 12 or so. Bike brake locked up (thanks so a plastic bag that was kicked into it - long story!) ... flipped the bike and all but my right index finger cleared the handlebars as they were slammed into the road. Bone out, finger crushed! Chin was sliced open to the bone. It didn't even hurt until I turned my hand over and saw it.

oldwomanc6 38 #34 June 3, 2012 Quote Funny how it dont hurt till ya look at it, eh? That's so true. When my daughter was 2, she took off like a bat out of hell in the local home improvement store. Ran straight into a door on a frame on a cart. Cracked her forhead open. I picked her up and went straight to the bathroom. She was fine until she saw the blood (hers) all over me. Total two year old freak-out. Ahh! Kids. I'm glad they're grown, now. lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lurch 0 #38 June 3, 2012 This is fun I've got a few. Knuckle, right hand: laid open clean to bone at age 12, looked like cut chicken, bled surprisingly little actually. How? Homemade power tool I'd created from toy parts. With no blade guard. Blade being a 3 inch razor spun at 25,000 rpm. I just HAD to try cutting foam rubber with it...blade bounced off. Into hand. Tailbone: Age 15. Rollerskating. Taken out by tiny 4 year old redhead child apparently born on skates travelling at 956 mph in a confined area. The child never touched me...far too skilled for that... but the zigzag pattern a highly energetic human being only 3 feet tall can create took me out anyway. Crawled off the rink. Had to ride a bicycle home. No parents available at the time. Not fun. Finger, right hand, impaled on sword, age 18: Not much to tell. Rapier fight with 6 lb iron swords with only slightly blunted tips. Yanked my hand off the blade, examining the entry hole it took me a minute to flip the hand over and realize the blade had skidded around the bone and punched right out the other side. Oops. Strangely, not only did it not get infected, it barely affected the hand at all. Finger got a little stiff for a couple of days and swelled slightly. No real pain. Didn't even lose significant use of the hand at the time, left a dimple scar entry and a tiny slit exit. Heart: Age 30 Butched a landing of a reserve in bad wind conditions. Was flared to below the waist by impact with no significant slow of ground rush. Hit feet-hands-ass driving my knees into my chest hard enough to produce what turned out to be cardiac lacerations I.E. bruised heart when I folded up later that evening. Stop breathing for a few minutes and everybody freaks out. Spent the night in the ICU, beeping. Made out ok. -BLive and learn... or die, and teach by example.

pontiacgtp00 0 #43 June 3, 2012 Was racing my 2008 Honda CBR1000RR on a trackday July 21st, 2011. Accelerated out of a turn too hard, and lost the rear tire at approx 120mph. I was wearing a full 1 piece Dainese leather suit, I didn't get road rash, but the heat from the friction gave me 2nd degree burns on my ass and palms.

I'm surprised that some of the strange injuries have happened to several people!!! In any case, it's entertaining to read about everyone's mishaps!! TOE (again) Last week, my bf stubbed his toe on the wooden ladder that separates my 2 floors... I couldn't help but burst into laughter and he was horrified at my reaction... HOWEVER, he pissed himself laughing 2 hours later when I stubbed my toe in the exact same way!!! What a hypocrite!!
