Never broken a bone, bunch of close calls though, Im really good at falling properly. How ever I did try to eat a parking garage on a scooter one time, thats right a scooter, did a face manual pretty much. Wore my shoulder down to the muscle and my face was all oozy...see!

oh I and I blacked out momentarily while rafting. My friends paddle got caught on a rock and the other end hit me in the back of the head. Good laugh though

Owowowowow.


Last fall I was in a car wreck, we turned and all of a sudden a huge SUV comes through my window. It hit me directly in the side, but the car (crappy old Civic) was good enough to give me a lot of protection, so I ended up with only a 5 minute black out and a ton of bruises. I had to get my head stapled though. There was blood everywhere and some nice lady gave me water. Then I got into the ambulance on a stretcher. I was released from the hospital about an hour later.

I've never had any really serious injuries. :D Here is something that happened recently.
About a month and a half ago I was at my friend's house playing Halo 2, and we were one controller short. Since I brought my bike, I had to go to another friend's house and get a controller. On the way back, I was going around a corner and wiped out (I hate riding one handed). The scab on my elbow finally fell off a couple weeks ago, and now its just scar. I some how only got a little scrape on my knee.

then there were other minor things, scars from bikewreck on gravel, scar from falling off a bed i was jumping on when iwas like 6 and getting cut on a metal wall heater with a sharp corner (big ole 6" long scar on my lower back) almost a broken nose from waterskis (trying to put them in fromt of me and it swung around and cracked me across the face) other than that not much of notice lol

I've broken both collarbones (not at the same time), chipped off half of one of my front teeth, and crashed really badly on my bike, which has left me with many scars on my body.

The funny thing is that one of the broken collarbones occured when playing touch football at school. Touch football my butt. Some fat kid got mad at me and tackled me. The other occured when I was like 2 or 3 and I was pretending to be a daredevil by jumping off my swingset. Needless to say, once of the stunts did not go very smoothly.

@shockslayer: Why in the world did you fall asleep with your soldering iron and hot glue gun still plugged in? If you like to have them as comfort toys when sleeping, then at least unplug them you silly boy. :P
