    worst injury

    Was just thinking, what's the worst injury you ever had? Such as a broken arm/leg/rib, etc. I never really had anything even that serious, mostly got off easy...

    Just interested (so I can see how lucky I am )
    This is my signature. Remind me to change it.

    1) nearly lost an eye, after some tart threw a glass on the floor in a bar, whilst arguing with her b/f (not me - didn't know em). piece of glass went in my eye and lodged just in front of the lens.
    now have only 60% vision in it, nearly had a glass one, it was 50/50

    moral - NEVER throw glass or pottery around

    2) Kidney donor, so only one kidney and a 10" scar

    3) Broken hand whilst fighting

    moral - use palm strike whenever possible, not clenched fist.

    These people know where its at. How come thats so bloody painful? Geez. I broke it two years in a row. That wasnt very fun... You two snowboard by any chance?

    I've had a concusion (and the afformentioned multiply broken tailbone) and a few ribs but other than that, i've been damn lucky, And if you look at some of the things i do.... i've been reeeeeeeally damn lucky.

    speaking of tailbones, you'll not believe this, but a friend of mine had a boss. this guy went skiing all the time.....
    due to some freak accident, i presume he was stationary when someone hit him from behind.....
    a ski basically went up his backside, or as far as possible, smashing his tailbone and rupturing his anus.

    what makes it even better, this guy was a complete dick !!!
    everybody hated him and was afraid of him......
    talk about just deserts !!!

    i know EXACTLY how you feel Ken. i forgot to mention i had a hydrocele (water on the testicle) which swelled my 'nad' up, and had to have an operation. afterwards it felt like i'd been kicked in the 'nad' for about 3 days after

    and its still twice as big as the other one !!!
