Broke my lower spine
Ouch!
Was pushed off a 5 stepped staircase, Then the perpetrator was pushed off by someone else. As I was pushing myself off the ground, the guys leg landed on the back of my skull causing me to smash my head into the ground.
May or may not have fractured my skull.
...
Two come to mind.
1.) I was ten years old and my sister and I were swimming in the municipal pool. A common practice there is to throw your kid into the pool. So some idiot picked up his child and threw him in, right on my head. His knee hit my head, I was knocked out cold. I was saved from drowning but received a pretty bad concussion and some chipped teeth. The parent never tried to make amends or anything, just presumably grabbed his kid and left.
2.) Testicular torsion during a junior high football game. By the time the pain became too bad to play, it had swelled up and turned blue. The pain just got worse and worse, excruciating doesn't even begin to describe it. The doctors weren't able to manually correct it in the emergency room (so painful I blacked out) so I had to get emergency surgery. Put a swift end to my football season.
When I was nine, I was playing around a metal support pole in middle school that holds an outdoor roof. Around the corner of my eye, I noticed a group of older kids that wanted to lift another kid and help him do a 180 degree 'flag' pose around the metal pole, and I tried to get out of the way for them.
Next thing I knew I heard and felt a loud and sharp gong-like sound, and I was on the floor in immense pain coming from the forehead located above my left eyebrow, blood everywhere, screaming and crying my head off. It took me some time to realize that the older kids didn't wait for me to get out of the way first, and must have accidentally (I hope) knocked me towards the other metal support beam.
I can't remember the details, but this supposedly happened not long after I was just moved into the middle school, and I had to take some time off to recover from the injury those kids gave me. I don't even know if I fell unconscious or if I woke up right after the accident. But one thing I knew for sure, I never played around near that metal poles again.
I can still feel the pain, even though the scar has no feeling left. Funny, that.
Lost my left hand second phalanx of my thumb when i was 16 .I was playing with a friend and I got my thumb stuck in a back steel door , due to my friend closing it to so i could not get out out of the building , i cried so bad and my friend tought i was laughing ,and i wanted to espace so bad the pain , that i tried to pull it off , and infortunately , it ended bad for me and my phalanx got stuck on the door .
When I was 12 years old, I tore my meniscus. And not only did it hurt like a bitch, but my parents have the tendency to not believe when my sister and I are ill and thought nothing of it. As time went on, the pain worsened and eventually I started limping, so my parents gave in and took me to the ER. Eight hours later, I was diagnosed with having tore my meniscus and given a brace as the tearing wasn't bad enough to require surgery. Luckily, I did not need surgery and the pain went away after keeping the knee brace on for a few weeks.
The best part was my asshole parents getting scolded by the doctor for how serious it was.
I slammed my middle finger in a door when I was 7 years old. I cried for a little bit but didn't pay it any mind since it gave me an excuse to give the finger to someone
When I was like 5 I was dumb enough to sit in front of a swing and my friend was on it and accidently kicked me and broke my nose
And once I got a paper cut and went unconscious
I did something similar to the second one when I was 7 I was playing on one of those trampolines that don't have a net and I missed the trampoline when I landed and stopped breathing
12 years old, was in a fun house and I was on the moveable stairs that go up and down, I slipped and got my 3 middle fingers stuck in the machinery and I tried to wiggle it out which made it worst and then I decided to jump backwards which removed the top half of my middle finger with the other two about 1/4 cut through down the middle and then shortly after someone came and helped me out, they couldn't fix my middle finger in time but the other 2 were saved
Been bit by a dog four times too, two on the leg, 1 on this shoulder and 1 on the arm
Computer falling on my toe, causing the whole nail to come off.
Being an accident prone child, I will only tell you my injury last year. I was at a football game and my nanny thought that it was a good ideas to walk down the bleachers to sit by our family. Well, I have flat feet so sometimes my feet moves outward when I walk sometimes. One of my foot went outward when I was on the last bleacher on I jumped down on it. I heard a few cracks and I was just thinking "uh oh". I sprained my ankle. Well later that night after the game was cancelled my dad lectured me about getting the injury saying when I get older and don't live with him anymore that there will be no one to help me during an injury. Which is funny because I can just call 911.
I broke my ring fingers at Football and Basketball.
... I once ran into a mirror and pushed my toenail back ._.
It's not a really heinous injury like some here, but while I was sparring in Aikido class, I smacked my head really hard against the floor when someone threw me. When my head hit the floor, it was like a ball bouncing up and down.
Ummm...one time, I was on the bus and one guy was getting off the bus to get home, and then the shithead that was getting off the bus kept repeatedly punching me in the face for no fucking reason. I hope he dies from fucking AIDS and goes to hell.
Another time was when I was at the park playing baseball with my friend, and I wasn't paying attention and the baseball landed RIGHT in my eyeball. It NEARLY popped my eyeball open. And then I had to go to the hospital. And then after that, the friend gave me the baseball to say sorry :')
Another time was when I was at my home and I was opening my bathroom door to take a piss, and the door slammed into my big toe and the toe was infected for a month.
I broke my left wrist when playing baseball when I was 11. I was diving for a ball in front of me and when I landed, my glove hand ended up underneath my body due to the momentum. Due to the pressure of my body, it broke, went to the hospital, ended up being in a cast for about a month and a half. Good news, I caught the ball, it stayed in my mitt even after all that. Bad news, it was only warm ups, it wasn't even during the actual game.
I once got a concussion playing flag football...yeah, you heard me, FLAG FOOTBALL. I was running after the guy, trying to reach for the flag, and someone behind me pushed me into the other kid and we ended up knocking heads. I couldn't see straight for a while, spent the night throwing up into a bucket, and felt like I blacked out a couple of times, even when I was at the doctor's getting it checked out.
Another baseball injury, I suffered an injury to the growth plate in my right elbow due to pitching. I had a tryout for a potential fall team earlier in the day and a double header later, and I was slated to start the second game. It wasn't anything major at first, I originally thought it was just soreness, but as the day went on, it continued to get worse. By the time the second game started, it felt like my elbow was on fire. I tried throwing a couple of pitches (definitely not a good idea), and I was in a lot of pain, now my whole arm was feeling numb, I couldn't even grip the ball correctly, and the pitches were lobs that barely reached the plate. Got it checked out, doctors said I had something called "Little League's Elbow," which occurs when you put too much stress on the growth plate due to throwing. I couldn't play baseball for 2-3 months and had to go through a month of rehab.
I was bitten by a dog at a very young age 3 or 4. The dog's definitely dead by now. I had to be taken to a nearby city to receive multiple rabies shots. I don't remember the pain anymore. But being pretty young and deathly afraid of needles, it must've been hell.
I've never broken or sprained myself, but I once cut my finger open with a pocket knife, I still have a scar, and I once got a concussion while playing Baseball with a friend, it went a little something like this:
Me: You have any helmets?
Friend: Nah, we don't need them.
First pitch smashes my head.
I read it at as "you cut your finger off!" Jesus dude.
I think you need Lorne Malvo's help.
Malvo: "If that were me in that situation, I would'a killed that man."
Once I quickly reached down to grab something next to an old drawer. And a thin, pointed piece of metal was sticking out of it's side. It stabbed halfway underneath my left thumbnail. It was extremely painful. My whole thumbnail fell off and regrew itself about a month later.
I was getting in the back of dad's truck, and Dad took off without realizing I wasn't in yet. Dad started going, like, 40 MPH, and I panicked. I was only 10, and I jumped off the back. I thought I could make the jump. I could in fact, not make that jump. As soon as my feet hit the road, the rest of me kept going forward. My knees took the blunt of it, then I smacked my face off the road, and then I slid farther up the road on my arm. Wound up with two horribly swelled and fractured knee's, a broken nose, and a road rash on my right arm.
Overall, it was an alright day.
Sadly, we can't bring guns to school ;_;
At least no one died. Amirite?
Sprained my little finger when I got it caught in the bannister whilst running up the stairs, I cried.
Nothing. I am invincible. Never even been in a hospital, never had a sick day at school, and for the past 4 years working full not been ill either. The only ill I've been is hungover as hell
Honorable mentions, both involving cars.
1.) Was helping unload groceries. Mom accidentally brought the trunk door down on my head (it was an old car that required slamming). I didn't pass out, but it made my world spin for a good ten minutes. I iced my head and decided not to visit the doctor. To this day, I have small dent on the top of my head.
2.) I was getting into the front seat of the car. As I reached back to grab my seatbelt, my hand went a bit too far and got smashed when I pulled the door shut. Ended up with a broken finger and the rest of them badly bruised.
This happened to me in the exact same circumstance. I didn't pass out, but it would have been better if I had I think.
I've had some painful injuries, so I'll just share a few of them.
Once I was looking out of a window, one of the old types that weighed a damn ton, and it broke and fell and flattened my thumb. Another time I was helping a friend replace their fence, and I was stepping through the grass and a nail went through the bottom of my boot and straight through my foot. My cousin tripped me once when I was running through my grandpop's house, I put my hands out to stop my fall and they missed the coffee table by an inch so I smashed my face flat on the table and broke my nose. I broke my nose another time when the pedal on my bike hit something on a sharp turn, causing it to stop dead and me to fly over the handlebars face first into a tree. During a high school football game I also had testicular torsion happen, which was ungodly, and probably the worst of all of these.
My worst almost-injury was when I was putting a roof on a two story house with my cousin, and the tar paper for the next row of shingles tore under my boot when I was moving a bundle, sending me sliding for the edge. I would have went right over the side but my cousin got my arm and slowed me down enough that I stopped sliding.
When I was a kid, I broke my arm in karate class. I should stop right there, because it sounds like I was doing something awesome and extreme, but in fact, I wasn't even participating at the time. I was sitting on the side watching, and another kid was thrown on top of me. If they ever teach you in karate what to do if someone is thrown at you while you're sitting down, I hadn't made it to that lesson yet. I pretty much gave up on karate after that.
You're a living fucking Jesus Christ man
