As per usual I am exceptionally bored and I thought it may prove entertaining to hear about some of your grusome/painful/humourous injuries.
Here are mine, add your too please.
- When I was about 6 I ran into a playhouse but I was just a bit too tall to get through the doorway and I cut my head open. Ouch.
- Playing rugby I collided with someone and was unconcious for a few seconds. I came round and was helped to the school medical room where they gave me 1 block of ice in a paper towel. I was bleeding all over the place aswell, it was sort of funny until I got concussion.
- Dislocated knee playing rugby. I got tackled around the legs in a rugby tournament in which we were pitted against players up to 4 years older than us. Did they show mercy? Did they heck! My knee was dislocated in a tackle and the coach had to snap it back in place.
- Shattered ring finger. Playing rugby at school I went into a challenge with my arms out to tackle someone but they hit my hand with such force that the bone between the first and second knuckles shattered into 3 pieces. I had to spend 3 days in hospital having a 2 hour operation and 2 metal screws are permenantly in my finger
- This is when I gave up rugby.
So add your injuries to this thread and we can laugh at each others misery, perhaps.

my mate droped a bowling ball on my foot. yes it broke.
i have also got glass in my eye, from when some idiot threw a rock through the bus window while i was in there.
nothing too bad, well then again, i'm not one to get hurt, mainly becuase i'm allergic to pain.

They thought it was. I was in a little bit of pain and had to use two hands to bowl. Didn't know I broke it until my Dad took me up the hospital.

Indeed.
...well thats the dangers of alcohol....
Poor Venom Byte :-(
Dropped on head when in a supermarket as a baby. Probably explains a lot.
In year nine I broke my left arm whilst attempting to jump a hurdle, shotly after having been explicitly told not to do so by the PE teacher, because the grass was wet and slippery. I jumped, or tried to, but fell over and whacked my hand with wrist shattering force (literally) on the ground. Arm in a cast for six weeks, couldn't use my arm properly for a further four.
Toward the end of sixth form I severely sprained my anklewandering through a friends garden at midnight. Alcohol to blame for that one. Couldn't walk properly for a few weeks, and the ankle has never been 100% since.

Ah I forgot about mine similar to this, You know those steps they have across pools that sort of divide the deep end from the shallow end. I was on holiday must have been 3 years ago and I was running across the side of the pool and it was slippy (I am naive, OK!) I slipped backwards and cracked my head on the concrete step and got like shock sorta thing because the water was so cold (It was night).
Im a fool
