Default Tell us some painful stories

I'll post one, then I'm going to bed.

Growing up in a third world country, we didn't have much of the equipment you guys have.

So we were out playing baseball in the park. I was the catcher and my friend was at bat. He hit the ball, and instead of tossing it to the side, he kept the momentum going and threw the bat right at my head. I didn't have a mask or anything. All I heard was a nice "dink" sound and then a lot of pain. I remember falling to the ground and seeing my friend round the bases too :rofl: while everyone rushed towards me.

When I was 4/5 we lived in Redwood City. There was a tree in our yard that had a huge branch that went out horizontally. My dad used to bring out his huge tow rope and tie it around the branch, then lock a swing to the tow hoop....it was the raddest swing evar...until the lock snapped and i went flying straight into the sidewalk, headfirst. I remember going into the sidewalk, and the next thing I remember is waking up in my neighbors truck...pulling into the hospital emergency room drive up. Then I got stitches....and then lots of toys. h:

similar thing happened to me when i was younger.

my brother had a tennis racket and was swinging it to hit a ball his friend was tossing him. i was standing next to my brother (stupidly) and he swang too hard and hit my nose and then there was blood. h:

my gf had a lot of stories when she was living in vietnam when she was younger.

her mom was riding a bike and my gf was sitting behind her. i guess my gf's leg got too close to the chain and it tore the skin off her ankle. her mom didnt notice and kept biking. she still has the scar on her ankle. :ugh:

I was laying on the deck of a swimming pool, with my head over the water. I sneezed, and cracked my front tooth smack on the deck of the pool.


Freakiest experience of my life. I thought my whole upper jaw teeth were gone.

There was a Pinoy party when I was young and I remember playing with my fattymickfatfat cousin.... Anyway, we were just playing tag (I think? :thinking when my Aunt called us over because the roast pig was ready, fattymickfatfat thought it would be a good idea to push me so she could rush to the food and I banged my head on a chair on the way down as I fell... :madr: Fatty didn't even stop!

Dude, when I was younger and I was getting into BMX riding, I found a bunch of jumps out in the boonies, I tried the smaller jumps first and was doing pretty good. I got more bold and so I moved on to the bigger jumps... I hauled ass and as soon as I hit the top of the jump, my bike went up and I went down, bike lands on me :wtc:


Couple of weeks later I found out those jumps were really made for Dirt Bikes h:

I will win it all.

Two words: Testicular torsion.

To make it better, it happened at 2AM, and I had a final the next day... so what do I do? I flip it back around to the most mindnumbing pain ever then... fixed. Everything still works too... I think h:
