Lets hear some of your injuries you've had in your lifetime.
I'll start off with mine.

Yesturday I fractured and displaced my scaphoid bone in my wrist and spent 12 hours in the hospital, was put under to have it re-aligned, and need surgery to put pins in my wrist to temporarily hold it in place.

I fell down a set of stairs while snowboarding.
We were sliding the rail alog the stairs.

It was stupid. Me and my crew are filming a video. I got the trick I waanted, but i was not satisfied with how it looked so i wanted to do it again.
I sketched out on the run-in and should have stopped but went for it anyways.
Ended up landing backwards with my board parallel to the stairs, and i guess i put my hands out and thats when it happened.

Wow, that happened to me about 9 years ago! I now have a screw in there!

There wasn't necessarily an injury that lead to this, but back in August 08 I had to have my upper jaw removed for a bit.

Doctors (surgeons) sawed it out right where your upper lip meets the gums, cut 6 strips front to back in the bone in the roof of my mouth, stretched it out, and put it back in with 16 screws.

To this day, when I get sinus pressure I can feel it on the roof of my mouth and my top teeth.




Thread specific: when I was a freshman in high school (2001) I was skating a halfpipe at a local park with some friends. I came up to tailslide a section of the coping, and my board cut into what appeared to be an inch of wax on the coping. Board stopped, but I didn't. I came down on the coping with my right knee, bounced outwards, and fell 15ft to the bottom of the pipe on the same knee. Instantly couldn't feel my leg, and my knee swelled up to the size of Grapefruit. My douchebag friends took me home, instead of the hospital. My parents were unamused to say the least, but said, "meh. We'll take you to the emergency room tomorrow".

Couple surgeries later, and my kneecap was happily reunited with the appropriate ligaments.

I destroyed the skin that connects my thumb to my index finder

I was at a climbing / rappeling wall ( top ) getting ready to rapell, when one girl who was almost hlaf way down teared her gloves and went into panic mode, so I react it and with no harness I grab onto the rope and went down to help her complete the wall safely, but instead she hugged me and I couldn't hold her weight and mine with no gloves, I gain speed and the rope burnt my skin.


tore 2 ligaments on my right foot

( at the same wall ) there were different levels ( store high ) so as part of the training I use to jump from 3 stores high and ket running like nothing happened, of course I was 15 and rhough I was made of steel so decided to add a spin to it ( literally ) lol so I jumped backwards, I didn't complete the half turn and landed with one foot, leading to said torn ligaments


fbroken front toohth, tonge split in half and the remaining pice of the tooth went across my lower lip.

Roller blades + beautiful new neighbor + stupid kid trying to impress her + wet paviment = blood everywhere lol. I did a backflip but had no traction when landed so hit my chin against the sidewalk.


I have many others but those are the stupid ones that I kind of deserve for not thinking things through lol

My feelings... You and everyone hurt my feelings... :-(





HAH HAH HAH... Seriously? A thread about all the injuries we can conjure up from when we were kids til now? Let's make a thread on what our favorite ice cream is next.. Or if we all cried at the end when we were forced to watch The Notebook by a significant other...

Faust gtfo!!!

I was like 7, playing tag, about to jump off the slide, and this bitch "tags" me. I get up off the ground after falling 8 feet out of the air onto my arm.I look over and my forarm is making a 90 degree angle 0_0. Go into shock, wake up in the ambulance..


I was snowboarding my my dads steep ass mountainous property, i had mad a ghetto jump off an old stump. It was getting dark and i went off it wrong, put my weight back and smacked my head on the stump. 8 staples later i now have a huge scar on the back of my head..

hmmm this may explain a few things

Delete it then..

Touche

took a jump on my mountain bike and somehow my foor got between the front tire and the fork, when i landed i went over the handle bars with the bike following me still conected to my foot. landed hands then face first on gravel, only to slide into a small wooded area. cut my face legs and other things, but what makes it bad was i was young and didnt know anything so i just wraped all my bleeding body parts in gaws went to bed and woke up noticing that i made a big mistake. had to take it all off, peeling all the scabs off because of it and bleeding all over again. oh yea and now i can take my thumbs and make 90 degree angles by bending them backwards. kinda cool actually. lol

Um Mint Chocolate Chip, and No.

broke my finger playing basketball in grade school! got it taped to the one next to it for 2weeks! super intense lol

j/k wow i guess its a good thing i drank more milk than you guys as kids, and didn't try crazy ****. -no offense-

x2.

I was at a party that got broken up by the cops when I was in high school. We were... on the wrong side of town. So I'm bookin it down an alley and ran up on 3 dudes doing a deal. Apparently they didn't appreciate this "pinche guero" running up on them like that. Long story short I have a 4 inch long scar on my side and I still, to this day, maintain that getting stabbed sucks.

lol, good thread, Faust... stop being grumpy


My best injury happened when i was a tiny boy of 2 years old, i fell down the steps in my neighbours garden and they had a concrete bird at the bottom, who's beak stuck right in my head :-O

I've got a scar, but it just makes me look even hotter fortunately...

Diggin the skating story, I got one too.

With my girlfriend and every friend I have watching, I tried a nose manual transfer from quarter to half pipe, got run off course on the lead up, when up at an angle, hit the guard rail, didnt switch and came back down goofy instead of making the transfer. Some punk sitting on the pipe thought it'd be funny to stop my board from coming back down with me and I landed flat on my left foot from 10 feet up. It cracked the bone but being the stupid hard@$$ that I am, I decided to man up and live with it. I was then driven home by my pal who used my spare coins to buy cigarettes and less than 2 dollars in gas to get me home in MY car.

It took almost a year to get better, I lost half a toe nail and I'm noticeably pigeon toed. I also bounce when I walk like I'm in a perpetually great mood... It sends mixed messages. lol

penile fracture. long story. i am now captain hook.




FML until i found out i can get to the g spot with my.... angle.


i know... TMI but im a black guy, we dont do that dangerous get yourself killed type sports lol
