What’s the funniest injury story you have

What’s better than laughing at someone in pain? Laughing because of the ridiculous way they got hurt 😁

Tell us something funny that happened and resulted in your injury. It can be something pitiful, like mine: I broke my foot stepping the wrong way playing laser tag. Or it can be something you did that started with the famous last words “hold my beer”.

So this was when I was very young, somewhere 10 or below, and my mom took me with her to work for reason. She didn't work in like a regular office, but a small hangar where she did the book keeping.  Now at this hangar was a hulking beast of a cat named Rotor that weighed over 30 pounds. He wasn't just a fatty though, he was muscular and powerful, and he loved to play. Playing included chasing after people when they run. So brilliant, 10yo me decided to run around and play with the cat. I failed to account for two important details though. 1: If Rotor caught you, he jumped onto your leg and/or mauled the hell out of it. 2: I was wearing shorts. So I run around for a bit and then he catches me... and my legs were absolutely shredded. Probably over 100 rather deep scratches. They drew blood here and there but nothing quite stitch worthy. Fricking painful though.

Short bonus story: when I was around 5 I sat on a fire ant mound while wearing shorts. Oh dear lord the pain was something I will never forget. I learned that day why they are called fire ants.

Our school had something like an 'Afternoon care' for everyone under 8th grade where you basically stayed in school, ate and did all your homework for children whose parens worked long hours.

So, during our free time there a friend and I decided that it`d be really cool to get into the gym, take these weird sticks with styriofoam around the tip and play "Jedi" - essentially fighting with this things while imaging some epic Star Wars Soundtrack in the background. We did this for about 15 mins. when I trippded and fell backwards landing on my back. My friend thought its a great idea to exploid this slip and thrust this stick right into my face shouting some stupid phrase (Probably among the lines of "Now you're done for" or "Hasta la vista baby")... the back of my head bashed against the floor and shortly after something felt weird in my mouth.

Turned out, he nearly bashed out my upper front teeth. Later in the hospital they said that each tooth was basically dangling from only one nerve each (and several years later they said that I was lucky that I didn't need a Root canal treatment).

The punchline: this happened on the 23rd of december so I could only eat soft white bread without crust at christmas eve. (and my entire mouth hurt throughout the winter vacation).

Though honestly, we could laugh about this when we saw each other in school again.

Well, long story short, I landed in cactus as a teen and went to the hospital with my mother. As the doctor was pulling the spines out, my mom was making small talk and instead of saying: "my daughter does photography." She accidentally said, "my daughter does pornography."  My eyes grew HUGE and she covered her mouth and started laughing. The doctor chuckled and remarked on how it was the blunder of the day. I'm just laying there, on my stomach; super tensed and 100% embarrassed in a hospital gown. 😖

Great, I actually lold at this

When I was a pre-schooler  I got a coffee can stuck on my head. This was back in the days when they were made of metal and you had to use a can opener to open them leaving the edges jagged. My mom who was a compulsive worrier anyway, was frantic and afraid to try and remove it. In what can only be described as divine intervention my uncle just happened to stop in to visit. He had 4 kids of his own and calmly told her he had dealt with this problem before 🤣. Don’t remember how, but he did manage to remove it without leaving me looking like Wade Wilson.

This reminds me of when I stuck my finger inside one of those adult Chinese finger traps AKA Clorox wipes container... 92ABBE03-52BF-43D1-B465-154ED64FC86E.jpeg.7d86fa3cd91603f56121292632d21be4.jpeg
