Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums General Common Interests Worst injury dumbest cause?

When i was younger i wanted to be like the teenage mutant ninja turtles and tried to go into my sewer and i got the sewer grate up and then dropped it on my right hand middel finger and broke it. Then when it healed. I did it again. I wasnt very smart but that was 2 years ago and i like to think now that im 20 i wont try it again. Other then that thats the only thing ive broken or my worst injury, which is supporiseing cuase i dome some dumb [censored].


Actually i was like 8 when i did it.

Im amazed there haven't been any stories about thinking you were superman when you were a kid and jumping off of high objects with a cape.

when i was in 6th grade some kid punched me in the face. so i wound up and blasted him as hard as i could. in the process i broke my hand. on the bright side not only did i knock him off his feet but i knocked him out too. i spent 2 1/2 weeks in a cast, which i also fought a few people with (i fought alot when i was a kid) a few weeks after i got the cast off i beat the same kid up again, this time breaking no bones.

when i was a kid 4th-5th grade it was raining outside, i ahde a HUGE orange poncho on and i was running. i tripped on it and did a faceplant and scrapped up my face after skidding on it

back around the same age, i was riding a bike, and some kid threw a hockey stick through my front wheel when i was doing like 20mph, i FLEW over the handle bars, caught air for like 20 ft, then landed next to a fire hydrant. i got up and socked him in the eye and he ran home crying

i was about 15 at the time, i started vigorusly pedaling my bike, chain popped i flipped over the handle bars, the bike landed on top of me, and i was knocked out for about 20 seconds. i scraped my back up near the shoulder pretty bad and i still have the scar to this day

i was 13-14 and i tried rollerblading. i would go down my hill and falla t the bottom every time. i did this about 20-30 times before i finally gave up. i had road rash on my entire body

like 4-5 months ago i was in the garage, which had an oil spill and was covered in junk. near the back was the 454 engine block laying on the ground. i had to get it past all the junk and out into the back of my bronco to take to the machine shop. i tried picking it up and in the process slipped in the oil and hurt my back. i ended up putting it on a creeper, wheeling it out, and picking it up with my engine lift.

Now that you mention jumping off something:

I was on the second story of an apartment, on the patio, and we tried to jump off th balcony on to a trampoline.

I hit the trampoline and bottomed out on the ground, sprained both ankles, and then continued my forward trajectory off the trampoline and on to the groundl landing me a pretty big knot and a bloody face. The ER loved me when I was younger...

hey now that I think about it! I crashed ALOT on my bike when I was young!

the chain thing was so annoying, I had an old bmx.. and it had a warped crank so if I pedalled really hard standing, it would fall and well, you know the rest... my voice was high pitched for a week

I did the same thing russel did, on my bike going down a hill FULL speed!!! I was going to jump up on a sidewalk thinking I was pro, when I jumped up.. it was way to early.. so the bike came down right on the corner of the curb! I went flying like a mofo and also got knocked out.. all's I rememeber were some old people beside me kept askin me if I was ok,

I also had the incident of going down full speed ON a sidewalk... and out of no where, the T on the road...a van pops out and stops... I went FLYING into the fender over her hood and on the road... she brought me home, and yelled at my mom for my bike not having any brakes! LOL

it was my grade 7 teacher to!! coming home from her day of work!

1. 4 years old, chasing our little Maltese dog down hallway, tripped, hit head on air register, hit vein, had 3 stitches.(still have scar)

2. Can't remember how old I was I'm guessing 6th grade maybe, during the summer, going into 6th grade, well I had a hot pan sitting on the counter(stupid thing to do, hey I was a kid), after making eggs(I was just learning how to cook )and I had no shirt on and bumped my left side by my ribs on that pan and burned the [censored] out of my side I think it may have been a 2nd degree burn, didn't need to go to the hospital tho, and if I remember right I didn't even cry I just said, "OWE THATS HOT," or something like that.

3. Closed pocket knife on pinky finger, left hand, I think I was 10, maybe a bit older.

4. Fell off top bunk of bunk bed, got a pretty bad bloody nose, age 5 or 6.

5. Cannot remember how old I was, I'm gonna guess age...12, when we still had our dogs, I would have to take them outside sometimes well I had a bit of trouble gettin the big dog(great pyrenees)we had to come in so one day I decided to keep her on her leash, and well she always like to spin around when barking at a car so while holder her leash(yeah I know this was stupid)she spun around and as she was barking WHACKED my leg(I had shorts on)I had 2 teeth marks on my knee and one 5-8 inches below it a deeper mark and I still have the scar from the deeper one.(I say its a little something to remember that dog by)

6. High School wood shop class(11th grade last year of wood shop I took and only wood shop class there was left to take, I took the others before this)sanding something on disc sander, on the crack of the table part and sander part, piece of wood slipped in the crack, sanded(or pintched not sure)off a nice layer of skin on my index and middle fingers(this was my left hand which I'm left handed so it was hard to write something for about a month, I think I even tried using my right hand turned out worse then my hand writing already is)right after the piece of wood slipped down into the crack I didn't feel anything I kinda felt a stinging feeling in my finger a few seconds later and looked and part of the tips of my 2 fingers were gone! took off a nice layer of skin didn't need stitches for this, I was saying so many curse words that would make a sailor blush as I went over to the sink really fast washed them down and got the teacher and he sent me to the nurse, she called my mom and my mom got a hold of my dad, they sent me home and I was also light headed, and the nurse said I was turning pale in the face.
