posted somewhere else, but my mate put some grips on his bmx using the condensation method. Went out straight away. I was following him on my bike, and as he went to jump off a little ledge, both grips slipped off in rather spectacular fashion. The sound of them popping off and his "ohhhh shiiiiiiiiiit" still make me laugh. He was fine.
Another mate managed to land from quite a height, his balls and the top tube being the first things to contact. A teste got pushed up into his gut area, and had to be put back into his sack surgically. He was fine too.
My worst crash was when i was a kid and my dad was giving me a crossbar home from school (sitting on the the toptube!!) Just as we were coming up to a dropped kerb, he told me to hang on, I tensed up, and accidently stuck my foot in the wheel. Course, the front wheel came to a complete stop, and threw me and my dad over the bars, clearing the pavement, and landing in the front garden. His front wheel was pringled!!! Gutted because that old orbit frame would be sweet now, but he's just given it to a good friend!!!

i was walking down a street in Qubec, and unfortunately stumbled upon a public order situation, where a teargass canester landed at my feet, i decided the police might like it back, but my gloves where not thick enough to protect me.

I have a scar from a flash bang grenade .
Cycling wise I was riding an old beater I had been given by the guys who were squating the flat below us, and I went over a bump and the front wheel just came off and rolled away leaving me to face plant the floor.
Then yesterday I stacked it going up a tiny curb, just from hitting it at the wrong angle, right in front of my work, will not live that down for a while.

these aren't my injurys, but my dad managed to slice off 1 side of his 3rd finger from the middle knuckle up on a table saw. now he has 3 metal plates in it and can only bend it from the base of the knuckle. then 2 years later he falls off a ladder whilst painting a house smashes his hip and now has a titanium one. which is shit for him because he lives in america and whenever you beep going through a metal detector at an airport they immediately think your going to blow up a plane

yeah but he is slowly becoming:

I was five years old and had learned to ride my bike. My sister was roller skating and wanted me to pull her along as she was very slow. Skipping rope is duly tied to the bike and I drag her along. It all gets a little too exciting for her so she drops the skipping rope which gets tangled into one of the wheels.
Bike comes to an abrupt halt and my head absorbs most of the impact. I was briefly knocked out but when I came round I could not see anything.
For the next day and a half I was completely blind, my parents had been told to keep waving brightly coloured objects (not of the Emilie kind) in front of me. My finally seeing an orange was a great relief to my parents - I don't think I was as concerned about it as they were, not able to understand the potential consequences of being blind at that age.

A friend of mine used to have to take her younger brother with her everywhere she went when they were kids. The little boy was really pampered by his mother and was a little brat. One summer day my mate was playing cricket in the local park with her cousins and of course the little brother. As they were playing he kept running up to the wickets and jumping over them as they were trying to hit the ball. They kept telling him to stop but he wouldn't listen. On this one particular run up to the wickets he slipped or tripped and kind of fell and jumped at the same time. Anyway the stump ended up going straight up his bum hole. Someone called an ambulance and they had to stretcher him away face down with the stump sticking up in the air. Strangely even to this day he gets annoyed when it gets mentioned. Ooooo the splinters, makes me shudder just thinking of it!

I was racing pifko on my beater a few years ago, in the rain throughly pissed. Ended up sliding over scraping my arm and almost got run over by a taxi full of students. Woke up with blood all over my clothes.

When my older brother got his driving license it didn't take long before we tried the 'get towed by a car on your skateboard' idea, with muggins here on the skateboard.
Only problem was that we didn't put quite enough thought into the method of communicating from the towee to the driver. We opted for 'one bang on the window to speed up, two to slow down.'
Off we set with Barney slowly increasing the speed until I begin to shit myself a bit, go to do the double bang on the window but only manage to do one hit before having to grab on again to stabilise myself. So he speeds up...
I think I bailed at somewhere over 20 mph. Wearing shorts and a t-shirt. On gravel.
Talk about road rash...

Mega dredge.
I've wounded my ears.
Last night was putting on a marathon plus in the kitchen (small kitchen), pumped to 100psi......BANG!!!
Ears ringing for hours now in pain on the inside.
Tyres can't have been mounted properly as they blew off too.
-
Snap! I hear ya......hmmm maybe not as well as I used to.
I recently built some wheels with old Alesa rims, and they really don't like anything upward from 100psi, the tubes forced the tyres off and exploded on 3 seperate occasions, once while pumping them up, once right in my face as I held the wheel up and span it to check for trueness, really fucking close, it seemed to happen in slow motion an I was disorientated for half an hour. Finally it exploded on a lazy, sunny, Sunday afternoon in Russell Square and that shitted people right up. I proceded to spend about half an hour ensureing the tyres were seated correctly.
I'm now a highly nervous pumper. ha.

HAHAHA
I commend you though, that noble art seems to be dying out, good man for doing your part to keep it alive.

When I was about 14, I went out for a paddle in this old canoe. It had steel handles on the bow and stern to pick it up and carry it by, and the bow one was broken - half of it was missing, leaving a kind of hook. I was mucking about in the boat, standing up and trying to balance, and I slipped and found myself straddling the foredeck, facing backwards. I slid down the canoe and fell backwards into the water. Unfortunately the handle pieced both my trunks and my scrotum, and I was stuck hanging upside down off the front of the boat with my head under water, suspended by a rusty hook through my scrotum. Not the best moment in my life. I managed to escape, though, got it stitched up and all fine in a surprisingly short time. Not done much canoeing since, though.

A mate of mine got shot in the cock in Afghan.
No, really.
In through the jap's eye, bounced around his pelvis and out through his buttock, without hitting anything vital. Could of been in a wheelchair or dead, but nothing to show for it but a scar on his arse and pins and needles in his foot where the nerve got damaged.
Very lucky, but nobody ever believes him!
