Re: The Dumb Injuries Thread!

2 years ago, I was at work and we were training some of the new people....we needed to move this big stack of lumber, and one of the new guys gets on top of this stack, and from about 2 feet off the ground, kicks a 200 lb massive wooden post directly onto my ankle...it swelled up and turned purple all within about 10 seconds, and i had the darkest purple bruise you will ever see that last for almost 2 months, along with a dent in my bone that you can feel *_*

he didn't come back the next year, lol.

Re: The Dumb Injuries Thread!

You all get hurt too much and seriously xD

I've only had my ankle broken, well, kinda almost torn off my leg from being hit by some orange city-worker truck in 1st grade. Out of school for 4 months, then in a cast for like 3-4 more. I kind of had a slight chance to never be able to walk/run again.

Re: The Dumb Injuries Thread!

School friend, Two years ago, was walking ... yes, just walking. Theres this big tree at our school. Anyway, it was lunch time, and this MASSIVE leaf off the tree just FELL and smacked his head. I was RIGHT NEXT TO HIM gosh I was so lucky o.o

And me... Lol, was doing this PDHPE running thing, and I was beating my friend, by several metres. I looked behind, puffing, and laughed at him. Looked forward again, and the next thing I knew, a big grey hard titanium pole smashed into my face. It wasn't a pleasant sight.

Re: The Dumb Injuries Thread!

this thread is so fun to read, but here are my tragedies.

- in 4th grade i was playing soccer and i was the team's goalie. so theres this guy charging towards me getting ready to kick, he kicks and goes to the far left of me, i dive for it, and this was a good 4 ft in the air, and i flew so fast, i hit my head on the goalpost, theres still blood on it.

- also in 4th grade, i was running down this path, which was a little steep, and my "friend" pushed me, and i fell into a bonfire pit, but not just wood and garbage, nah.. it has broken beer bottles, glass everywhere, and there was poison ivy EVERYWHERE! for about 2 months i was itching. oh my god, sleeping sucked.

- in 7th grade my best friend was sitting beside me, but someone was in between us (hehe bad grammar), and he went to punch him in the arm because hes cool like that, but at that time he brought his head down to eat, and my friend wacked me across the face, and he hit me HARD. funny as **** though.

- in 8th grade i was on a trampoline and i did a front flip, but turned into a suicide dive, almost broke my neck.

- not too long ago, i have stubbed my toe at LEAST 40 times, no joke, and i think my toe is the weakest bone in my body now, its as brittle as crushing a toothpick.

- this is one hell of a lol factor for me. i was running and my friend was trying to warn me of a huge billboard that was so freaking close to the ground, and i didnt care about him so i ran and hit my head on the billboard. LOL.

- i was bullied alot in my old school, back in england, 1 day these sons of a bitches had a great idea to throw rocks at me, 1 HUGE one that size of a softball hit my head, had a concussion and a meaning in life, to get revenge.

- around that same time, i was riding my bike and the ice cream guy came into our street, i was happy and i got myself a big ice cream cone, double vanilla with 2 chocolate wafers with strawberry candy. :P anyways, these 4 guys, roughly 4 years older than me, made fun of me for no reason, i didnt say anything, but they called me a pansy for good manners to the ice cream guy, and wearing a helmet... so then i tell them to piss off, because i couldnt care less what they do, so then they chase me, i jump on my bike and ride down the culdesack, it was around a 20 second walk from my house, but 1 guy had soccer shoes, the ones with studs on the bottom, and he hit me on the back of my head and back, really hard, i fell forward and faceplanted into the gravel. my step dad almost killed them bastards...

- i was playing hide and seek, a year or too before my previous injury, and i tried to climb and jump over a chain-linked fence, i got to the top and i jumped, but my foot was caught in one of the links, i flew down 10ft, face first into rocks.

- broke my elbow from skateboarding, i ollied (jumped) on my skateboard and fell forward and my elbow hit the ground first.


im done lol, hope you enjoyed it!

Re: The Dumb Injuries Thread!

hmmm...maybe when I was around 5 years old, I was sitting with my friend in the back of his dad's car. We were poking holes in a TMNT gummy wrapper.....with his dad's pocket knife. He went inside to get snacks (or something like that), and I ended up stabbing my thumb with the knife. I was terrified of needles and the word blood for at least 3 years after that.

Looking back, all I have to say to myself is: WHY THE HELL DID I PUT MY THUMB OVER THE PLACE WHERE THE KNIFE WAS GOING TO GO THROUGH? It seems pretty funny now.

Re: The Dumb Injuries Thread!

When I was 16 I had gone to some cliffs on the coast, and my friends and I would jump into the water -- nothing too dangerous. One of the cliffs I jumped off of was higher than I thought because I hadn't inspected it first --- holy CRAP was that ever stupid. I almost killed myself -- the drop was like three times higher than I thought it'd be. I was scared out of my mind and thought I was going to die, but luckily all I got was the wind knocked out of me and a bloody nose. I was shaken the rest of the day.

!! Rubix is human?!?!?

PS ouch.

PPS I've never broken anything or sprained anything or anything like that. I sure have fallen down a lot and done some stupid things, though. I guess I'm really good at falling.

At least you didn't get your toe caught under it and have it get cut off. That happened to my mom's co-worker's son. pwnt.

Re: The Dumb Injuries Thread!

Before the end of my school year last year it had been raining for a few days. and during school I (somehow) decided to go down a hill to get to my next class. it was really muddy and I slipped down it and I broke both my arms. there was alot of ppl around so being the imature people they are they all laughed at me.

Re: The Dumb Injuries Thread!

Top dumb injuries... well i can narrow it to two.
Well first one i was running down my hall, don't recall why. Trip on the edge of a carpet/mat and a fell and smash my head on the door knob of a door. heh 10 stitches.

Dumbest injury would have to be on a treadmill. I was at a friends house and he had his treadmill running, so ofcourse me without thinking it through I jump on... Well there was a freezer behind it. So i jump on... i keep getting shot by the treadmill backwards, and then i get stuck in between the treadmill and the freezer. Yeah well there was skin on the treadmill after that. It felt, at the time, like a horrible horrible rug burn. I had marks behind my ear, everywhere. The worse was my back and i still have a scar.

Re: The Dumb Injuries Thread!

I fell on a glass table when i was 2 and a piece of skin over my lip came off......... my family use super glue to get it back on................ i have been scarred.

That reminds me of another one of my injuries...back in 6th grade or so I was racing my friend on our bikes...I had a bit of a lead on him and I looked back to see where he was. After turning around, I was a foot away from a pickup truck. I tried to put on my brakes, but i still crashed and ended up flying out of my seat and into the bed of the truck, crashing into the windshield. Somehow it didn't break and I suffered only a concussion.
