Sarahs post has given me an idea for this thread so thanks chick

Whats the silliest injury youve had or heard of?

Mine has to be a few years ago, I was getting out the bath and slipped, and fell on to the edge of the bath - one leg either side of the bath edge - bruised my panini really badly

One I heard of, and this isnt an urban myth as it happened to a local couple and was in the papers - its quite a sad one really But an elderly man was on stepladders using an electric hedge trimmer to trim the top of his hedge, while his wife was weeding the flower bed next to him. He fell off the ladder and the trimmer chopped her head off

I work in a neuro unit and obviously people who are in-patients dont always have all their wits about them and last Christmas, a little old lady got an electric shock when she tried to water the fibre-optic Christmas tree on the ward - true story!

lol, reminds of an old friends husband, she used to say to her kids if they hust themselves "kick the washing machine then you wont feel the pain anymore" and they would give it a child-size kick, ie not hard enough to actually hurt their foot, but it worked. Anyway her husband cut himself while washing up so he gave the washing machine a good hard kick and broke his toe

Oh I am a walking disaster!!

Well, apart from my bum burning this morning. I have broken my elbow, arm, foot(twice), nose, sturnam, toes.

All of them were with normal falls or a car accident... but on of the times I broke my foot was because I stood on a typewriter in the store at work!!
I'd been climbing the shelf(not a good idea) and came down without looking on to a typewriter!!

My mum was decorating my sisters bedroom when she was about 8. My sister was jumping up and down on her bed getting gobby and talking back to my mum. My mum said if you dont stop that I'll smack you. My sister didnt stop so my mum slapped her on the back of her legs. Because she was still jumping up and down on the bed she kind of launched forward, head first into the wall. It was a bit of the wall where my mum hadnt taken the wood chip off yet and she had loads of tiny red dents on her forehead. Its funny now but my sister was dizzy at the time

I tore a ligament in my ankle because I jumped out of the skylight in my flat... which was upstairs in my bedroom. I was locked in and forgot I had downstairs windows.

They wrote 'jumped out of window' in my notes. The amount of people I had to explain it to though, and they all just couldn't understand why I would jump out of my skylight.

Fell down the stairs at man utd football ground while at my hubbys xmas work party.... completely drunk LOL... broke both my ankles.. didnt' hurt til morning though as i thinkt he alcohol took the pain away.. was so embarrasing.. had about 10 security guards surrounding me... i told em to Pee off as they were making it worse.... dont think the 4 inch platforms helped either.. (was a 70's fancy dress party LOL )

My mate went to an open air concert recently. After the show they were walking back to the car park but the flood lights werent working so they could hardly see a thing. Apparently her fella tripped over something on the ground and landed head first on the floor. As his head connected with the floor the lights suddenly came on and someone further up shouted 'thank you'.

At the time he was being all manly and brushed himelf down and said hes ok, but he woke up the next day with a lump on his head and another lump on his knee the size of a golf ball.

Did he fall onto the light switch or something..?

I pulled ligaments in my left thiogh a few years ago having sex in the shower, standing upright.Had to go to doctors for it to get signed off work and had to tell him what happened.
The dirty man had a twinkle in his eye.

I jumped down the stairs when i were little because i thought i could fly. (the night i watched peter pan and friends grrr)

My cousin once worked in A&E and had 2 people come in with burns and the guy had his forskin hanging off. Aparently she was doing rude things to him while he was making breakfast and he spilt the fat on her back and she bit his willy. OUCH!

WARNING!!! It's is nasty!!


This woman in her 40's came in complaining of dark, almost black discharge from her foo-foo after loads of tests they couldnt figure out what it was but what ever it was it was rotting..... turned out this lady was single and lonely and had a tropical fish of some sort and sometimes went in the bath with the fish after she has smeared herself with the fishfood.

Basically it was rotting fish food! She let the fish eat from her foo-foo!!

Told ya it was sick!
