"What's the most painful thing you've ever done"

I'd be interested to know, so I know what to avoid doing.

I'm lucky, I've never broke a bone in my life, so have avoided one of the most painful things right there.

Some things that spring to mind though :

When I was young, I was wearing only shorts and trainers. I climbed a hill which consisted of a steep face of jagged rocks. I then fell down the jagged rocks. I was bleeding all over and in terrific pain. I was v.young though, so the pain is a distant memory

When I was 16 on work experience, I climbed on a fork lifts forks to get to a high shelf. After retrieving an item and placing it on the forks, the guy lowered me down, and I had to hold one of the three stansions. I didn't realise that these clunked together when the forks were lowered. Luckily there was about a centimetre gap between the stansions, which stopped me from losing all eight of my fingers. I couldn't move them all day though, and they went black and blue.

I jumped off a sand dune in newquay onto a barbed wire fence that was covered with sand, and tore a 4 inch gash in my foot. The wound got loads of sand in it, and the surgeon scrubbed it out with a toothbrush. I had 19 stitches

I fell in the shower when I was young, and smashed the soap dish with my back. It was ceramic and dug straight into my back, missing my spine by half an inch. I had 15 stitches.

Ok, lets hear your horror stories :

I got pushed into a barbed wire fence and got the wire entangled around my head, and it was all sticking in.
Also, I've broken my arm, but it wasn't all that painful.

When I was about 2-3 I spilt boiling hot water over myself, not that I remember it that well.

Another time I was playing football in the lounge, tripped up and fell straight into a table. My tooth went straight through my top lip - That was painfull!

It wsa probably yesterday. I had cut by big toe VERY badly, and it was just healing. I was in an empty room with a rubber ball that had a wheel inside that made it bound at odd angles.

Anyway, I was throwing this against a wall, really hard, and doging it as it came past. I threw it at the bottom of the wall, it bounced, hit the ceiling, then smasher right into my to at full pelt. I literally fell onto my face in pain.

Enraged, I grabbed the ball and threw it at the wall, and since I was sitting down it came right back and hit me in the stomach.

Very powerful bounce.

Once upon a time I stubbed my toe.

Er...surely that's more of a "sexual" injury?

I came off a really big jump on my bike and underestimated the height and speed at which I was falling. The seat on my bike is quite hard and I was standing up. Then I came down and crushed my nuts on the saddle, because I couldn't control my bike in the excruitiating pain I was experiencing, I fell of and hit my head on the floor. I couldn't sit down for about two days and I had to lie face down when I went to sleep. Never again...
