I think one of my favourites was whilst snowboarding in austria. I was at a festival called snowbombing, got trashed at lunch time, and thought..... right i'm going to hammer it down this red run. Anyhow needless to say half way down I caught a tiny mogul (bump) mid turn, which since I was drunk I failed to react to it quickly enough, I ended up catching my toe edge and faceplanting quiet violently at 30 something mph, next thing I remember was waking up a few minutes later with a completely numb face and what felt like a blocked nose, so I blew my nose, and launched a load of lumpy nasty looking blood onto the snow. I then boarded very slowly back down to the apartment, lesson learned.....don't drink and snowboard.
