Bizarre injuries you've suffered

[DrewDevil]

I had a bad cough last week (and lingering into this week), and I think I have pulled a rib muscle from coughing so hard. Bizarre--every time I sneeze, or cough, or move a certain way, there's a stabbing pain in my side.

I also notice that this week a MLB player blew out his knee while arguing with an umpire.

Anyone else experienced this, or something similarly bizarre?

When I was in grade school I went to a daytime computer camp at Framingham State College. A pencil rolled off my desk and I snapped my legs together to catch it in my lap, except I was too slow so I just drove the pencil about 2" into my inner thigh.

A few nights ago I woke up screaming in pain and started punching my wall. I had a charlie horse in my calf and it was easily the most painful one I've ever experienced. 2 Days later I'm still struggling to walk comfortably.

A few years ago around Valentine's Day I had a whole mouthful of redhot candies in my mouth. I dropped my pen and reached down under the desk to get it and all the red hot spit went into my sinus cavity. That did not feel good.

my brother tried to punch me in the face and in trying to catch the punch in my palm i had my hand tipped too forward and his fist caught the top of my middle finger and broke the 2nd knuckle

Was trying to cut an orange with a butter knife when I was 6 or so and put the knife through my hand.

when i was about 13 i built a sweet tree house on the border of my yard. on the first level we used to kill time by pounding nails into the floor. some douchebags came over with chainsaws and tore it down because the new owners of the land behind our house thought it was on their property. my friend and i were carrying the "floor" of the first level into the woods, and because we were retarded we were carrying it upside down so all the nails were sticking up. for some reason we were only lifting it a few inches off the ground, as well. he was walking backward, i was walking forward. he stopped suddenly without warning, and the 8 inch high "side" (it was like a shallow box) hit my ankles. i had no way to stop my upper body, so i fell forward, palms first, onto about 10 or 12 nails. that was a bitch.

I woke up in my hotel bed a saturday morning a couple of years back with five stitches in the back of my head and all my clothes missing. I still today have no idea what happened to me. I have a weak memory of me being in an ambulance and a bunch of nurses pointing and laughing at me, but that's it. And I may have dreamt that.

EDIT: So infact, I have no idea if the way I suffered the injury was bizarre or not. I'd like to think it was though.

I've definitely had this one, minus the punching the wall part. Not fun.
