I'm in a bored mood right now so I thought I'd ask you guys what your worst injury is. Mine happened when I was around 4 and I climbed up on my banister and thought it would be fun to slide down. So I hit the knob at the end and crashed into the wall and smashed my nose up pretty good.
Expecting very interesting answers =P
Worst Injury?
My worst injury was braking my elbow. Sounds pretty harmless but it damaged some nerves which caused my hand to feel all tingly for a few weeks after and I still cant bend my arm straight after about 8 years.
When I was 8, I fell off of some monkey bars and broke my nose. Also pretty bad was an experience down at the beach at 10. I was running into the water but missed a body surfer hiding under the wave. His head came flying in at my kneecap and I flew to the ground in pain. His response: "Are you alright?" At my response of no he shrugged and walked away. I couldn't walk quite right for a week and it occasionally flares up even today.
I sprained my wrist in a car accident. But that story sucks, so I'll tell of my friends.
Oh man....geeze.
I have a few I'll share....
One of them was when I helped someone move. I was carrying a sheet of glass from a really big table that shattered on a sliding door frame. It went right into my wrist and cut through some veins and nerves. I don't have feeling in a few fingers now.
Another time, I had taken some medication and it really did a number on me. I woke up and barely remember anything. I went into the bathroom, and while I was standing there I just totally passed out. Next thing I remember sitting in my room with blood all over my hands. Basically I put a hole in the wall from my head and cut my eyebrow on the cabinet corner. I never felt anything before or after. Whatever I took just totally shut me down.
Also, earlier this year I was riding my dirtbike out in the desert alone. I took this corner very very fast. Two bad decisions. I rolled over the edge and onto about 20 yards of these red rocks. The bike just pushed the right side of my body into them. My shoulder, I think, was dislocated during this crash and went back in. I also had this puncture in my arm where a rock split it three different ways. I had marks and blood all over that side of my body. My shoulder is just now feeling better. Worst part was riding that bike home. Bars were bent and the whole engine was just carved from those rocks.
I also had pneumonia at some point and that did permanent damage in my chest. Which was probably worse then the other three stories just because that still hurts.
Never broke a bone though.....
I have a problem with banging into walls now. So far tonight I've hit my forehead twice by turning around and a few minutes ago I squat my foot in between a door and the floor and then I banged my head off a washer.

:P

When I was 2 I was pretending to be Superman on Thanksgiving and I jumped off my couch and cracked my head on a table. My mom saw me and thought I had gotten red paint on my forehead until she realized it was blood. When I went to get stiches I was squirming so much they had to put me in a straight jacket. Then when I was 6, the night before Easter my parents went out and I ran to my bed in the dark and craked my head open again on my dresser. That's pretty much the extent of my injuries.
*5 seconds later*
FUCK! I STUBBED MY TOE!
Definitely tearing my ACL. I was performing on stage and did a leap and came down on a straight leg which hyperextended. (i.e. I went forward, my knee went back). This snapped my ACL in two, which I had surgery to repair about 3 months later. It took over 2 years for my knee to have full range of motion back, and it still hurts if I am doing lots of lifting or running.

The worst I had ever done was when I was going to Grade 4, that summer I was on bike and went down a steep hill, I hit something and I flipped over my handle bars, the handle bars somehow wrapped around my leg, I pulled and pulled and couldn`t get it out and when I finally did after a good 10 minutes of crying and bauling I walked home thinking my leg was fine until my grandma looked at it and noticed the right side of my leg had a nice gash right to the bone, and I had a fun time getting loads of stitches to patch that sucker up.
I have broke my colar bone snowboarding and I Cut my hand abotu 2 1/2 inches long about 1/4 inch deep with a hooked razor at work, I have pics but I don't want squeemish people to see them lol.
The worst I know of though was my brother in law snapped his Achilles playing basketball a couple months ago (still recovering)

I have three. When I was very little, around 4 or 5, I was running to my mom on a sidewalk (at my daycamp) and I tripped. I Cracked my knee open, but surprisingly I did not need stitches. Many years later, I was at my friends house jumping off the swingsets to see how far we could go. Well, let's just say I went a little too far. I flew until I was right over his brick padio and so to prevent myself from breaking my face in, I put out my arm and fractured my elbow.
Lastly, I have another injury that makes people cringe when I tell them. I was on vacation with my family somewhere in the Carribean, at the beach. I was in the water, "body serfing" (getting carried by the waves) when I came across a massive wave. When the wave came, it took complete control of me and sucked me under. My chin hit the bottom and......
*Cringes*
My two front teeth, with braces, went through my bottom lip. Meh, that memory is not a happy one! Makes a good story, though...! :O
Not the greatest injury, but a while ago I was kinda drunk and decided to see how dizzy i could get. Great idea right there. Fell over, faceplanted the floor and split my head just above my eye. Went to casualty but they just said it will heal on its own in time, so no biggie.
EDIT: Oh, and when i was about 1 my mum put me in one of those bouncy chair things. On the table. I bounced my way right off it and slammed into the floor. No lasting brain damage though.
Oh I meant Snail for having to go through Sonic's torture.
And Dammit somebody already had this name....
Easy...I broke my ankle this time last december and had to wait 2 or 3 days to have an operation to put 2 screws in there, that are still there. I didn't play football for 6 or 7 months, it fucking sucked.

I think I've gotten better in thinking things through before doing stupid things.
I messed up my right wrist pretty good from hockey five years ago. Long story short, it started out as a sprain that I played through, then slowly snowballed into severe tendonitis, torn ligaments, and shredded cartilage over a period of a year and a half because I didn't take enough time off to let it heal properly and kept on going back too early. I've got permanent cartilage damage now that puts me at risk of developing arthritis.
I spill chemical in boot at work and it slowly start burning skin but I not relize.
Go to hospital and it simple case of running water over feet until danger level down on little changing color bar thing nurse have, I ok.
Try to sue but fail because they give thing to cover boots.

What a crazy coincidence. My answer is exactly the same except I was 25.
"When I was 6, a dog bit my upper lip, 7 stiches on the outside and 4 inside, at least I had clean underwear at the ER... thanks mom."
Holy shit your Mother is an underwear doctor?
"I spill chemical in boot at work and it slowly start burning skin but I not relize.You sure some didn't get in your brain?

My worst injury is when I jumped off my second story balcony and broke my ankle. Why did I do it? Well I was among friends who, at the time, we all thought it was a great idea... actually, it is still a great idea, we got it on camera and the hilarity greatly overcame the pain. I was in great pain, but I was laughing too much on the video for anyone to notice. (Some alcohol may have been added to the equation).
Every stupid idea seems like a great idea if your around the right friends.
"When I played Sonic the Hedgehog (new gen)... That knife was stuck in my chest for quite a while until someone told me suicide was stupid.Sure it didn't
*(NOTE: This never really happened... shhh!)*"
