Originally posted by wendigo100 View PostNot the worst, but once when I got a cricket ball in my meat and two veg, they were still a bit tender a couple of weeks later, so my doctor sent me for a scan.
It was carried out by TWO male nurses at Hemel hospital, who took turns to rub jelly and that vibrator thingy all round the tender parts.
That's the only time I've ever contemplated Elton John's arse - it was the only way of controlling my nob.
Hard Brexit now!

Never broken a bone, but I do play lacrosse (think ice-hockey levels of contact, but on grass) and have suffered the following;
Bruised ribs
Concussion
Dislocated fingers
Various dead arms/legs
Bruised bollock (though I had cancer until the lump went down)
Split tooth, subsequently extracted
Ruined knee cartialage, which now forces me to exercise with a ridiculous contraption stabilising my patella.
Still play though."See, you think I give a tulip. Wrong. In fact, while you talk, I'm thinking; How can I give less of a tulip? That's why I look interested."Comment

went into the pub with my dad about 30 years ago and saw this right old bruiser, broken nose, scars all over his head, busted lip etc.
my dad said ' dont worry about HIM, worry about the b@stard who did it to him'
true really

Well, since this thread has been resurrected I'll add my own personal favourites.
Thumb snapped all the way back after putting my hands out to protect myself after coming off a motorbike and unfortunately my hands reaching the gutter first.
Fractured knee cap after hitting a car which pulled out, having accelerated a bit too quickly.
Various bits of skin burnt off after coming off on a corner while riding down a hill, a bit too quickly
Hand cut half open after not being able to make a corner (Embankment*), while on a motorbike, taking out a lamp-post in the process.
No doubt there's a common thread here somewhere...
* there's a limit as to how fast you can go round any curve.
