Morning Injuries!

The other day i woke up but nobody told my legs this, i took one step out of bed and my legs still asleep gave way beneath me causing my face to have some nice intimate time with the floor

my dad did this whilst sleeping on the sofa watching a film (as usual) unfortunately we couldn't stop laughing enough to help him up :D
 
Jumped on a fork one morning, with a hangover, went back to bed after answering the phone. Woke up with blood on the bed and a very sore foot. Kids - don't drink alcohol and eat food in your bed.
 
years n years ago i was in a hurry to get down stairs and tripped over telephone phone wire, i can remember screaming that i have been electrocuted when infact a nail from the wire, went into my eye!

It was hospital trip what was worse when they had to clean out my eye with a needle because of the paint on the nail! burrrrrrrrr (was only about 8)

other then that im always walking into thing , chair/tabll legs when you stub end of your toes!
 
I got up, probably still drunk, after going out on the razz at uni. Thing is i had cooked people dinner before we went out which all 5 of us had eaten in my rather small room, as we were late i told everyone to stick the plates ontop of the only clear surface i had - the top of my television.

First thing i decided to do upon waking up is unplug my vhs player and plug in my DVD player for some hung over tv watchage. I tilted the tele forward to look and SMASH.

Plates everywhere, which i trod on, but was too hungover to care and went back to bed, bloody foot and all.
 
No i don't think Ive ever hurt myself in the morning. I do stupid stuff like putting the coffee jar in the fridge and pouring water in my coffee when it hasn't boiled etc.

I remember reading that there are loads of injuries every year involving people putting trousers on in the morning and falling, but Ive never done that.

I trump all your measley injuries with my own injury.

Only a few mornings ago i managed to kick the leg of my bed with my second and third toes....do you know how much pain is involved in that...A LOT.

I threw myself onto the bed and buried my face in my pillow and kinda screamed until the pain subsided.

TOE BED injuries are the very worst type of injury...especially on a morning.

So true,

I used to sleep on a futon,

Managed to rip off my big toe nail stubbing it on it lol, Then a week later did my other big toe on the door :( was pain!!

Both big toe nails have never grown back properly since :(
 
Smashed toenails, fallen over and/or into wardrobes, etc. Burnt myself a fair few times though. I'm totally and utterly rubbish with mornings.

Somehow managed to burn myself with hot fat last year. Put some sausages on and the fat flew across the kitchen and burnt my arm in some strange pagan symbology. Strangely, it didn't hurt that much, it just scared my more or less semi-permanently.
 
Poured boiling water from the kettle over my hand more than once. Also gone arse over tit down the stairs before because I failed to see the ping pong balls on the landing. Along with upturned plugs, bare feet and Lego bricks don't mix too well either. Certainly wake you up though.
 
Stayed at a mates house and we'd been out at a club and where slaughtered, I awoke to lond bang and flash of lights and screaming sounds coming from the bathroom !

I went to investigate with a tennis racket and with only the light from my mobile, found him knocked out on the floor half in the bathroom with wires wrapped around him and he'd wet himself.

He'd got up and gone for a jimmy riddle and fell over his hover and broke the handle off it and electrocuted himself and headbutted the wall and knocked himself clean out and tripped the electric :p

Was rather funny, shame it was in the days before camera phones as it would have been mint !
 
LEGO bricks and plugs are the bain of all bare feet!

My 'quick to the internet' moment:

my flat mate has just done a classic! after a rather heavy night he has just emerged from is hole, promptly tripped over our recycling box and saved himself from falling by placing his hand in the toastie maker i'd just finsihed using!

it certianly woke him up! hes now sat with his hand in an ice bucket! lol
 
I tend to get injurys when I go for a mid sleep toilet visit... I've walked into my tv, drawers... even tripped over a wire or two. Stumping the toe on the bed is a good one tho, as is smashing your shin on the bed too.

I don't turn on the light when I do that either, it'd wake me up too much!
 
Two come to mind

1), Many years ago broke my collar bone falling out of bed.

2). Year before last year I must have slept awkwardly on an overly firm mattress ... I then stumbled getting out of bed and had a muscle go into spasm across my sciatic nerve. This caused severe pain and led to 8 months of various medications and physio.

The g/f got out of bed the other night to turn the heating off in the kitchen and walked smooth into a big plant pot I left in the kitchen. Was in fits when I heard her walk into it in the dark. :D

The footsteps fading off into the darkness, then "duuuuuuuuuuuunnnngggggg!" as she walked smooth into it. Got a great bruise too.
