simonp Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 I think my silliest one was last week. For some reason I reversed the car up the drive rather than drive in forward, something I've NEVER done before. Swung my head around to check the reverse (as you do) and *CRUNCH*. My head was stuck, if I tried to move it I was in HUGE amounts on pain in my neck and shoulder ! Eventually went to the docs (when the wife finally beleived I was in pain) and was put on strong Diazepam and Cocodamine for a week. Still bloody hurts But at least I can move my head and my left arm now. Funnily enough, I'm back to driving up the drive forwards again :-) Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digger Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 Getting married, at the time it was painless, the symptoms get worse. It starts with a pain in the neck which when combined with the constant whine in the ears becomes a right pain in the ***. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest The Outlaw Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 I wont bother listing mine as I'm accident prone and most of them are dumb. However, the scariest one was when I was about 7 years old I was running down the corridor at school with a pen in my mouth. And like a lemon I went for a nose dive. Pen shoved back and out through my throat. When my mum arrived to take me to hospital matron said there was an extra hole in the back of my throat. By the time we got there it had closed up. But if I could have I would have screamed all the way there it hurt so much. Now I'm paranoid about my girls running around with spoons, lollies, pens in thier mouths.

paul65 Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 Nearly chopped the end of my tadger off by smashing a glass of g&t in my lap while in the bath. One minute I'm relaxing there like David Niven, the next I'm praying and trying to tweeze out a shard of heavy crystal that's gone right through Mr Johnson's polo neck and is sticking straight out. I should have had stitches but couldn't face the nurses in A&E. So I applied that liquid bandage stuff (useless in the circumstances but I wasn't going to try superglue down there) and taped it up as best I could. My wife twigged something was wrong when she came home and noticed the bloody handprints on the wall and First Aid kit. I was in bed recovering, though not exactly licking my wounds.

AndyCM Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 Impaled myself on a spiked fence while scrumping for apples (poaching of a different kind) - had to remove myself pretty quick to only have the one puncture wound. A few stiches and all was well again - I was but a nipper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulos Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 Broke my foot after falling 30 feet from a bridge onto rocks. Almost tore my thumb right off while climbing over a fence. Cracked my head open falling from a rope swing. I am an idiot, if I could just stay on terra firma I'd be fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zapp Posted November 17, 2007 Report Share Posted November 17, 2007 Scythe blade to the eye.. I was sharpening it for my dad and was having a good close look at the edge to see if it was sharp when for no reason my wrist spasmed, smacking the edge of the newly sharpened blade into my right eye. 'Luckily', the bone of my eye socket took the force so there was no damage to my eyeball, and yes, there was LOTS of blood.. mum nearly fainted! Still, I was in no doubt I'd done a good job sharpening the bloody thing! ZB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dustyfox Posted November 17, 2007 Report Share Posted November 17, 2007 My dumbest injury was on a swing, as I jumped of I twisted my body but my left knee didnt. The knee swelled to the size of a football and it was hurting like hell. Anyway got to the hospital and the doctor took xray he could not see what was wrong all he see that was wrong is that the knee was filled up with fluid. so I was on the hospital bed and the doctor brought out the biggest needle I have ever seen, and he stuck in under my knee cap, I was in so much pain I shouted out "Jesus Christ" and the Doctor was a Muslim and he paused for about a minute looking at me and I said "sorry did not mean to offend its just that I in so much pain". Anyway he carried on sticking the needle in my knee cap and the amount of blood that came out was amazing. dustyfox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

myuserid Posted November 17, 2007 Report Share Posted November 17, 2007 I've had quite a few dumb injuries, one of them was dropping a stone on my thumb which tore the tip off and nail off, you could see the bone which also had quite a large chip. Several very very painful injections later in between the thumb and index finger, I had it all stitch back together. The only thing is my thumb is now a different shape, I can just about feel it, I have a weird nail and to top it off its my right hand so handwriting is a waste of time!
