This thread reminds me of that advice dog where you put a toothpick underneath your toenail and kick it against a wall.

I don't think i've ever injured myself that badly but my best friend was on the phone once so she wasn't paying attention to what she was doing. She put her thumb in the gap in a door (the side with the hinges) and then without realising, slammed it shut because she was getting angry at the person she was talking to.
She ended up slicing her thumb off![]()
Recent: I shifted something in my middle spine back area and I have shooting pain mainly in my lower and middle back. I've been to the Chiropractor every day since Thursday because of it and I can't work for a bit.
Worst: Down between this and my sprained ankle last year.

When I was a kid, the three fingers, middle - little finger of my right hand were stepped on by an ice rink steward in ice hockey boots. Thankfully he was out on the ice before he prepared (and I was down on the ice for the same reason) that there was a large group of carers/parents and small children in the ice rink skating everywhere and anywhere causing mass chaos in there. If he had prepared properly including grinding his blades sharp again he would have actually amputated all 3 of my fingers according to the doctor. As it was I escaped with 3 broken fingers what now permantly dip at the middle finger knuckle in a dead straight line across all 3. I was lucky, you were too imho.
Just how man? Seriously most doors = wood and believe me I would know, most doors if they slam on something will possibly break the bone but it wouldn't normally slice something off, it would crush the edge of the door since most of them are made of soft woods.
My worst sustained injury is when my upper jaw got shattered. It was something I took kinda knowing I was going to lose the fight but still I wasn't prepared for that.
For my own bit, Im not really sure of my worst injury but I do know the most painful.
When I was a kid I was rollerblading around the yard, well the sidewalk around the yard area, and I went down a hill and fell, scraping my shins and knees for a good twenty or so feet. The result being skin missing in most of the area from my knees down to my ankles. Lots of medical gauze and neosporin and dear sweet jesus they poured alcohol on my legs...pants were a bitch too.
For such a clumsy guy I've actually avoided serious injury.
The worst I ever got was a nasty elbow scrape when I fell down running. It wasn't a big deal or anything, I've just been lucky xD
*knock on wood*
Careful of splinters there Jessweeee♪
With ease! They took muscle from my back and skin from my hip to replace what went missing, and scar tissue was used to give off the 'bulge' look that my inner anklebone used to provide. The other bones that were only partially ground away (the joint of my ankle itself) were also repairable. It's amazing what they can do these days, I must have had terrific doctors because I can play sport these days alright when I want to. I have two massive scars to show for it, though. One from below my "anklebone" to halfway up my calf, the other from the cut they made to get the shoulder muscle out which goes from the arm-end of my armpit to near the bottom of my ribcage on my right side.
I tell most people a shark did it. A lot of them believe me. xD
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
I demand you post pictures of your scars.
I did. In that scars thread...Not great pics mind you. It's difficult to get good ribs of them for some reason. Maybe I'll try again sometime.

That you did, I had to go back and check. It might be the pictures, but they don't look very bad.
It was 11 or so years ago, so all you tend to see in photos these days is a shiny looking patch of skin.I assure you, at the time the damage was done, it looked pretty bad - but then, looking at the white of about half of your tibia (shinbone) surrounded by blood and gravel tends to look that way when you didn't, er, plan on seeing it at all.

Right, right. That sounds awful.
