I thought i'd make a thread for people to tell their injury story, because i just got hurt but its the funniest thing.
My Story..

So.. I went with a friend to meet his boss so we could go to Sexpo on friday night. I parked in my friends works parking lot and we went through with his boss.
Then Sexpo was enjoyable and my buddy's boss got pissed enough to not be able to drive his car.
Afterwards we went to obs for a bit and left at about 3am, to get back to the parking lot which was locked :(
So we're sitting there with my friends drunk boss and i couldn't get my car, we had keys but none worked.

So eventually after arguing for a bit i decided i'd get my house keys from my car so i had to jump over the spiked gate to get to my car.
I climbed up and the bottom of my pants must've caught on the spikes before i knew it and i fell and dislocated my frickin elbow..

So my buddy is sitting in his bosses car and they think its funny, so im screaming until someone realises im hurt. They eventually see its not funny so they came to help.
And now i gotta get back over the fence to get to a hospital... so they lifted and pushed me over the fence.
Into the emergency room and i'm screaming for morphine :P they put me under and i forgot everything after that until i woke up this morning.

now i get sick leave yay!:) but i gotta do everything with one hand, took 10 minutes to type this lol
 
And it hurts like ****! you see people get their shoulders dislocated in movies and they just pop it back in place, simply not fukin true! i remember the pain meds didnt even work much till they knocked me out..
 
I honestly thought you were joking but ya - boet, this was a very interesting evening ;)

You finally get the rest you need... R2000 later ;)
 
shame hun i was actually quite worried about u when gdiza phoned me at 6am yesterday morning, i had a mini heart attack when the words Emergency Room and sh0t were used in the same sentence :p
 
Ppl are supposed to be writing their stories here stop going on about mine..
 
Dislocating ones shoulder and then popping it back in does hurt like a biatch, but it doesn't need painkillers....done it my fair share of times unfortunately.
 
... I'd probably still be laughing... probabyl because I've done that sorta thing a lot... I've even been hit by and driven over by car.... now THAT hurt.
 
Not nearly as bad as sh0t, but I've got two stories:

While using one of those hand-held manual wood drills, things were not going fast enough so I decided to just m03r the drill through the (thin) wood with a bit of force. Instead of the wood, I hit my thumbnail. Went clean through the thumbnail itself, but thankfully didn't do too much damage to the flesh underneath the nail. Bled & hurt a lot, but healed just fine.

Second one, I was cruising past a wall corner on my bicycle while being barefoot. Small toe caught the corner and fractured. Again, loads of pain, but healed fine.

Both happened when I was still very young and very stupid.
 
I fell out of a tree as a youngster and fell onto a metal spike protruding out of the grass (no idea why it was there in the 1st place). The spike went straight through my foot (including the bone). I didnt realise until I tried to stand and fell over. Became plenty painful thereafter.

2nd story - playing rugby against our arch enemies in high school. They were in for a runaway try so I sprinted to catch up and tried to ankle-tap they player by diving forwards towards his feet. He dived for the try line at the same time and his metal stud smashed into my nose. Broke it in three places and split my lip open. That was painful!

3rd story - playing football I was literally just tapped on the leg by the opposition. It landed up breaking my leg which was pretty strange considering he hardly touched me. Turned out after a bone scan, I had a malignant tumour growing inside the bone and if I hadnt been tackled, I wouldnt have found out. Thats what you call a lucky break!

A friend and I played in an old WW2 tank next to a military parade ground and the rusty top hatch fell on my finger, cutting off a scew bit of the tip of my middle finger.

I were 7 at the time.

I had to walk back a 1km with blood spurting from my finger.
 
Ok, lots of stories to share, won't go into detail though. Basically all started from when I could walk:

1. Pulled a boiling kettle over onto myself and melted my baby grow into my foot
2. Played with matches, lit one and dropped it down my baby grow and set it alight
3. Ran around a glass coffee table and my mother hadn't even finished her warning when I fell and cut my eye open so badly my eyeball was hanging out
4. Was lying on a table while my gran did laundry, she had also just warned me that I would roll off when I did and broke my arm.
5. Jumped over a wall to get a ball and as I was jumping back a staffie jumped up and bit my calf
6. Jumped with my bicycle and the fork broke as I landed, I went over the top of the handle bars and landed on the front wheel breaking my collar bone
7. Sliced left hand pinky open on razor wire
8. Sliced left hand middle finger open twice on glass
9. Sliced left hand thumb open twice when my knives slipped while sharpening
10. Cut right hand thumb to the bone when I tried to get onto one of those lagoon paddle boats you hire and I put my hand in at the paddles
11. Cut right eye open when a dog jumped up while playing and its collar got caught
12. Cut left eye open in a pool...twice...
13. Cut my ankle open next to the achilies tendon getting out of the shower
14. Broke my nose in the pool
15. Tore the scapula in my shoulder playing rugby in varsity...still haven't had it fixed...

Amazingly the only scars I have to show for all my escapades are the cuts on my hands. Everything else healed without leaving a mark.
