Just spilt scolding how stew all over my little finger which has blistered up nicely now :(


What silly injuries have you lot inflicted upon yourselves lately?
 
My boss at my new job managed to walk straight into a horizontal cross bar on the racking in the warehouse today, properly whacked it and staggered backwards in a haze........the day after shouting at someone for walking under the racking. Shame CCTV doesnt cover that bit of the warehouse, couldve got £250 for it! Me and the other managers couldn't stop laughing for ages, he had to show the directors around with a massive golf ball sized lump on his forehead.
 
I was telling my friend how awesome I was at doing quad bike jumps, and then proceeded to double roll the bike and break my leg, good times.
 
Not lately, but when I was about 12, some of my mates were playing frizbee with coasters in my Parents' lounge. One of them hit me in the face just below my eye and it swelled up so much that I couldn't open my eye. Had a huge shiner for about a week.
'How did you do that?'
'Erm, I got hit in the face with a coaster'

I also have a bit of a dodgy knee (the cartilage covering my kneecap is in bits), which sometimes plays up, especially since I've been running a lot. It's fairly embarassing to explain that it happened during a roller skating incident when 14 :D
 
Once cut the top half off my index finger off with a knife when I was younger, but thankfully it grew back..... wont be messing around with knives again.
 
I picked up a plate of bacon from the microwave and as I had just started to turn away I realised it was burning my middle finger but I couldnt drop it as the plate was full of cooked bacon. The blister was pretty big.
 
i burn myself a lot of the time, i dont ever get a blister

so in line with that, after i finished cooking, i moved the pan, the handle was directly over the heat source (turned off but still hot).... i could smell burning plastic because it was near melted, picked it up and had a bit of melted plastic on my palm, i proceeded to shout at the pan... " your gonna try and burn me? MEEEE?? "

the nice sausages splatter so much i might just stop eating them all together
 
Recently?
Well, i was forcefully desoldering a wire from a circuit board and the iron slipped. Since I usually use fine tips it proceeded to plunge directly into my finger. Meh. Yet another soldering iron scar. I have plenty!

Fair play for saving the bacon.

"Scaulding".
"Hot".

Another epic adventure with our resident indestructible superhero, platinum87! :D
 
not one i did lately, but when i was 10 me and my friend were trying to break a fence (as you do), anyway i picked this really big brick up, threw it at the fence (not expecting a rebound), it landed on my foot and i broke my toe :D:D:D
 
I'm a sensible guy - never lose anything, never hurt myself or others etc..

But that weekend... something about it was rubbish.

Did some jumping over a fence, and then jumped off a picnic bench rather backwards.
 
Bench pressing 30kg's until failure without a spotter or a proper weight bench to hang the bar on.
Cue me rolling it down my chest, sitting, then standing up with it.
Thought I'd got away with it but as I squatted down to put it on the floor, the bar landed on my right knee cap

OOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW :mad:
