Don't even like talking about it but...

Going down on my bike doing around 85MPH wearing jeans, no leathers. Really bad road rash on legs and knee. Actually growned my knee down to bone. No medical insurance at the time, my sister had to scrub the rocks out of my wounds with a really stiff brush.

Any movement hurt so bad, took about 6 months to recover.

I've nver been in a serious wreck, but... I was popping wheelies with my boys in a shopping cart... Rolling Eyes

... and when the weight shifted the cart came towards me so I went down on my knees to catch it. Well my hands were trapped under the handle and it dragged the back of my hands across the parking lot...with the weight of two small kids on them. The tops of my hands had "parking lot rash". My knees as well. I was bleeding like a stuck pig. I feel your pain with the scrubbing the stuff out... Shocked

. Knuckles are still scarred to this very day, been about 10 years now.

I have done some stupid things,

I'll give the top 3 lol

1. My Knee Cap Seperating from the rest of my leg in a bad hockey injury.
2. Getting shot with a nail gun in the leg, went about 2 inch's in
3. Falling out of a large tree landing on a branch and that branch went through my hand.

1, Passed some kidney stones a few years back. WOW! Those will get your attention. Was the worst physical pain I have ever known. If child birth is worse, then woman are more of a man than I am! Shocked

2, When I was 15, I was walking down some icy concrete steps. My feet flew out of from under me and I landed back first on the edge of a step. This did some major damage to my vertebrae and a disk. The nerve pain has been terrible every since then. I had back surgery about six years ago. Removed part of the disc and some of my vertebrae to relieve pain. Pain is almost gone most of the time now. Occasionally I will do something that will make it hurt for a few weeks, then it stops.

3, Heart break (if that counts). All I can say is thank God for his mercy and grace.

4, Of course there is the old hit in the "Jelly Beans", that every male must indure at times in life. Luckily that pain doesn't last for an extended time.

5, The pain in knowing some of the terrible things that some people go thru. I learned a long time ago, never think things can't get worse. If that doesn't sink in, try this: Go to a childrens hospital and walk up and down the halls. I have only been to a childrens hospital one time. I saw things that I will never forget. The look in a suffering childs face is something that will bring tears to your eyes. If not, you have a very hard heart. I could throw several other things in this catagory, but you get my point.

#1 Jumping out of a plane at night with a new moon. My altimeter beeped and told me the ground was close I prepared for a perfect PLF but the ground never came. I straightened my legs and looked over my reserve. At that very moment my heels contacted the ground and compressed my spine. I fractured one of my lower vertebrae.
#2 Riding home on a motorcycle late one night in Hawaii on the LikeLike Hwy. At 70mph a pickup truck passed me on my right and I drifted towards it. My front tire just clipped his bumper. Handlebars locked to the left and I flew over the pickup across the road and landed on the shoulder. At that point I pulled an evil knievel, bounced and rolled for a few hundred feet. I was wearing full racing leathers that were a size to small for me. They literally held my body together. 2nd degree concussion, fractured hand, dislocated hip and shoulder and fractured foot. No breaks and no permanent damage.

Hmmm, lets see, the knee blow-out during a football game. Now has arthritis in the joint (grrrr). Right shoulder was a cumulative injury that needed operation to fix. Started with a hockey fight years ago, someone grabbed my arm from behind just as I was swinging and it popped. Got worse over the years. Recovery time was a bear.

As a hockey goalie I have taken more than an occasional shot to the nether-regions, but one in particular still creates a cringe when I think of it (I'm cringing right now). Skater coming down the left wing with the puck and gets to the top of the face-off circle, I come out to cut the angle and am now at the bottom of the face-off circle (maybe 10-15 feet apart). The guy rips a slapshot and gets all of it. Guess where I got hit. This guy could shoot and he got the whole puck with this one. I thought I was going to die. I'm not sure if the laughter I heard was because of the face I made and the yelp I let out, or because they were all thankful it wasn't them. Shocked

You guys are giving me the shivers....goosebumps!!

I haven't had any serious injuries.

One time my knee cap ended up on the side of my knee, I put it back.

I had all my wisdom teeth pulled, (all impacted) and everything that could go wrong did. Confused

.......couldn't walk for a week, my mouth didn't heal right, I had to get my gums packed with cloves. I couldn't even lick an icecube without puking, which wasn't fun.

....and poor Barbie getting picked on. Razz
