Tie:

1993: During a three-week stay at my cousins' place, I jumped off a two-person swing in their backyard and it scraped the neck of my ass.

1995: During recess, I tripped on the edge of the blacktop, fell and wounded my side.

Where exactly is the neck of your ass?

L-O-fuckin'-L

Worst head accident ever: 2 years ago when I hit my head on a low wall trying to run to the basement, being the tall motherfucker I am. I almost passed out, but I just ended up having a huge bump on my head with blood gushing out of it for about 2 days.

Worst single accident ever: my 7th birthday (6/5/97) when I was riding a bike back home with friends to my party, tripped over a fence, fell into a tree Superman-style, and broke my arm almost completely. I also had to wait until the next day to go to the hospital to get it reset (PAIN!!) and casted. Worst. Summer. Ever.

I got hit by a van once. It knocked the wind out of me but that's it.

Never broke a bone.

A long, long, time ago, my brothers and I were playing King of the Hill atop a pile of gravel with rocks and whatnot. My older brother shoved me off of the hill and my forehead landed smack on a rock. I had rocks embedded under my skin and I got a few stitches. That's my story. Oh yeah, I remember also that the doc said he was "going to freeze the area" meaning numb the area. I thought they were going to stick my head in a freezer. End of story.

I have tons of scars from my childhood on my head from jumping off various places ranging from my roof, friends tree house, and falling into my grandparents pool and hitting my chin on the corner. I would say however, my most painful and recent injury was breaking my ankle skateboarding when I was about 17-18. It was so swollen, and my campus was a bunch of hills, so moving around on crutches was a huge pain in the ass. Vicoden didn't even help the pain.

One time I sprained my ankle snowboarding with one of those shitty Black Snow snowboards. I had a sweet ramp made of logs and a barrel. On one of my runs my foot slipped out of the "bindings" and my ankle got wrenched in between two of the logs. I had to walk all the way up the hill and back to the house with that ankle that hurt like a bitch.

Two winters ago, I slipped on black ice while casually walking across the road of our subdivision when walking to the neighbors house. I fell in the ugliest, most awkward manner, causing my lower leg to fold under my thigh and the rest of my body with a nice, big SNAP. Not realizing my leg was broken (I've always had a huge pain tolerance), I tried to stand and walk back home. I fell again, flat on my ass. The guys who I were going to see were sitting in the one dude's truck, laughing. They thought I must have been just super fucked up or something. They sat the entire time, watching me claw and pull my way back to my house using only my arms. I was rushed to the hospital and diagnosed with a shattered fibula.

I recovered in like... 6 or 7 months. Massive over-prescription of Vicodin made the overall period a pretty fun time. Lots of videogames and DVD watching involved.

When I was like 14-15, I tried to make a leap over a partially-barbed-wire fence and landed right on my right asscheek. Almost got lockjaw from it too.

Man, I can't believe after all the stupid shit I've done (mostly skateboarding and snowboarding type stuff) I have never broken a bone. My wrists took a hard hit from falling so much though.

An excerpt from my blog:

So I'm like 8 and me and my buddies finished a game of kickball and its about noon so we decided to go to the corner store for some pop and candy, Brad and Chris are riding their bikes and the rest of us are running down the sidewalk. We were in front of the two bikes and then they tried to pass by us, so I ran onto the grass but he drove on to the grass then I went back on the sidewalk and he went back on the sidewalk...(I know everyone has done this...your walking straight at a person and it's like playing chicken neither of you move and then you get face to face and you both go the same direction and then you decide to try the other way and they choose the other way...know what I mean...it's like pick a DAMN direction, or let me pass asshole, your not a troll this aint your bridge so get out the way...so I say screw it I'm just gonna stay on the sidewalk and apparently he either decided the same thing or got pissed off at me and hit the back of my foot with his tire which sent me hurdling towards the ground. As I'm falling to the ground I try to catch myself before I hit my face, but much to my dismay the ground at which I was about to place my hand had been replaced by a spoke filled tire...

My right hand entered the spokes of the bike which was going roughly 15 mph, and all of a sudden I feel a really sharp pinch. It was the bones in my hand smashing against the wheel bar, which surprisingly stopped the bike and sent my friend flying over the handle bars, now my friend was about 4'11 190 lbs, pretty big for a 7 year old, how my finger was not severed off I still do not know, but it was close. But now my bone was protruding out of my skin and there was blood and skin everywhere...it didn't hurt that bad until I looked at it. Ever done that? Unknowingly cut your self and someone says hey youre bleeding and you look and THEN it hurts like hell. Never did understand that, but I'm screaming holding my hand and running back to the house with my second wound of the day...this one was bad, we went to the hospital they put ALCOHOL in my gapping wound, I could literally see the bones in my hand...but I'll get back to this.

I run inside cept this time my mom was home, and she was just like "JESUS what happened to your face (apparently I didn't realize that by putting my hand in the spokes my face had smashed off the concrete) I looked in the mirror and immediately started wailing...I looked like some guy in a movie that had just been beat to shit by Chuck Norris and thrown through a window. I had forgot about my hand and my mom is cleaning my face...and when she finished I was like "Oh yea my hand hurts", I said. So she says, "Well lets take a look" I never saw a more ghastly face nor have I ever seen vomit come out of my moms mouth my entire life, but she must've saw something I didn't because she threw up something fierce and was like what the FUCK happened to you!!! I told her the story and this is when she whisked me away to the Hospital...after they "disinfected" my hand they stitched me up and put a bandage on around my hand.

Trying to show off the lack of my skate boarding skills I got hit by a slow moving car and pinched a nerve...

I only really have three that I remember.

-When I was 11 or 12, my friends and I thought it'd be a good idea to open the manhole cover near my house and have an adventure in the sewers. We were disappointed, however, after opening the cover, that it didn't lead to an intricate sewer network like in the movies, but rather just conceled nothing more than a concrete pit with some pipes.
Disappointed, my friend who was holding the manhole cover up with a crowbar let it drop back into place. Except instead of landing back into place, it landed on my foot which I guess was too close.
Since manhole covers are essentially an inch thick of solid steel, it broke my big toe immediately and pretty badly. So badly in fact, I didn't even feel any pain for some days after and had to wear one of those oversized corrective shoes for a few months.

-About a year later, a friend and I were screwing around on some railing outside of one of those portable classrooms; you know, the metal banister that lines the ramp going up to the door. Well, I was standing on one of those railings, just hanging out, and my idiot friend, for some reason, kicked my foot out from under me causing me to fall, but not before slamming my shin into the very same bar I was standing on. I don't know if you guys have ever taking a shin injury, but I'd rather be kicked in the nuts. It was the single most painful experience of my life.

-When I was 17, I was riding a bicycle to work and darted past an alley entrance. At the same time though, a gigantic SUV was pulling out of it and the timing was just perfect to where the SUV plowed right into me just as I was crossing the alley. It was probably only going 15 mph, but it sent me flying. I got up immediately and assured the guy I was fine, as it hurt a little bit, but not a big deal, and rode the rest of the way to work. When I got there, my co-workers looked at me horrified, and told me to look in the mirror. Lo and behold, my face was covered in blood from a huge gash on my chin, a scar that I still have.

Ninth grade my class went on a one week skiing trip in the Alps. Second day of the trip I fell out of a ski lift and broke my leg. Had to spend six weeks with a cast. Never went skiing again.

shame, skiing is fun

I think I may have the worst one on here. On November 27th 2000 a high lift, a stand up forklift that the person does not go up with the forks, but the forks can go up 5 stories in the air, with a full skid of product drove onto my right foot. It crushed my foot, broke my ankle, and degloved all the flesh off of as well as cracked my big toe, and broke my 2nd toe. That day I had surgery to put my foot back together, had a wire put in to hold everything together and 2 screws put in. I was in the hospital for a week and a half, then my big toe died and a week after that had to have my big toe amputated and a skin graft for all the dead tissue they removed. In August of 2001 I had to have the screws removed, my 2nd toe recontructed and the bones that make up the ball of your foot behind your big toe removed. I walk with a cane. Also, as a result of walking with a cane and a limp, my lower back is screwed up a bit as well.

Yikes. So you only have 4 toes? Or 3?

This reminds me, my friend Scott was on that Mtv show... here's the clip. I remember when he came to school after this and his whole face was just completely fucked.

My favorite line:
"Am I bleeding??"
*camera zooms to the huge puddle of blood under his face*

Wait, hold on...hitting your head is the worst accident you ever had? And you were seriously worried about giving a report because you cut your head?

Posted: Dec 01 2008 01:59 pm

4 toes on the right foot and the blank stub with a skin graft that runs up my foot pretty far where my big toe was. Also, my 2nd toe, which is now my first, has been reconstructed and is still fucked up.

I've never had a head accident besides some stitches - but I have had a slew of other injuries. Mainly from either hockey or my flat track racing days. My worst was probably a neck injury that I have had to have 2 surgeries on - one of which I actually had to fill out a bunch of paperwork for because it was a fairly dangerous surgery.

For head injuries, my sister was chasing me with a net when I was like 5 or 6, i was running like hell, I look behind to see how far away she is, turn back and there was a tree, my head was bloody but nothing major.

In grade 4 I broke my arm, playing tag and jumped for the money bars but since I could jsut walk i decided not to grab them and fell with my left arm behind my back, broke it pretty bad but it was in a place where it could heal fast.
