Doh, bit of a schoolboy error...

Although no pictures, about 8 years ago, me and a friend were doing some work for his brother, we decided to wire up a radio to a brand new heavy duty diesel battery. Like an idiot I somehow managed to let both wires from the battery touch while holding them in my fingers, it gave about a 2ft spark, the wires glowed instantly red hot, burnt into the skin on my finger, the wire was so hot it kind of made the skin form straight over the wire so I just had to yank it out. The smell of burning flesh was terrible and it hurt like hell.
Ok dude, fairplay to you.. I'm a farmers son and consider myself strong
But.. you would kick my ass
Ouch !!!
You're actually a Silverback Gorilla, aren't you?
No burn.. no win
I'll meet you half way, scalded foot and slapped shin!
I'm starting to understand why the wife is happy that i haven't been able to play with heavy toys for the last year or so

Think we need to get you on a nice squat program with a high rep calve raise scheme to beef up those legs
lol

Nice thick ankles there, good base to build a nice heart calve. Every night before bed I want you to do 4 sets of 15 calve raises in 3 positions
toe pointed out, toe straight, toes pointed in.
Will provide you development on all heads and a nice beefy calve.
Soon as my stitches disolve and i'm finished with my physio i can start to get back in shape, i've gained *ahem* a couple of pounds with the restricted mobility.
edit, holy snot my calves are burning! defo not as supple as i used to be

I think you mean calf (calves plural).
Less time in the gym and more time exercising your brain methinks.
No wounds to speak of as it happened years ago.. anyway.. [JackaNory mode ON ]
Years ago I was riding my KH250 in the fashion of the day ( both in attire and attitude - ie: if in doubt, Go flat out) down the boulevard on a saturday about midday (lots of shoppers about) Three chickens on full song. Blasting up the middle of the queueing cars waiting at the lights (for the shoppers to cross) and arrogantly stuck myself right at the front in front of them all. I then tried to put my left leg down only to find that the loop of my laces on my pumps had wrapped itself around the gear lever.... and as I was already leaning that way..... Nature wins... Keraaaaaash.. busted indicator stems and a red face. Pedestrians had to lift bike off me coz my leg was still attached to the gear lever.
About a month later..... Did the same thing on a saturday only this time I put my right leg down... The bloody lace got wrapped around the brake pedal so....... Keraaaaaash. Busted indicator stems (again) and a red face. (some people never learn !!)
A couple of years later I returned to Western Australia and was riding my MT125 Elsinore down the highway wearing T-Shirt, Stubby shorts, Thongs (flip flops to you) and open face lid.. Well it was 39°c and only a knob would wear leathers in that temp...right !! Anyway, I got bored with riding on the road so I leant left and went whizzing up the gravel rise (slopey kerbs) at about 80kmh. AS I wheelied over the rise I discovered the hill descended rather.... Rapidly, Hard but loose gravel surface.. I went kinda skidding down trying to stop. Some barsteward had dug a rough storm water trench at the bottom. Stopping was impossible so rather than go in front wheel first I lay the bike down..... and crashed into the trench. As I lay there trying to get my senses the engine touching my left leg brought me back to reality. I draggedmyself out of that trench looking like something from Zombies Living dead. And rode home smiling a manic smile at the car drivers !!
Did I ever tell you I used to be a Speedway Rider ?
I'll leave the crash & engine cutout failure/ bullfighter scenario for another time !!
