Worst injury you've had in all your life?

Mine wasn't that bad. My right foot's ankle (TEH NOES MAI FAEV FEUT D:) was sprained after I tripped on an elevated area (about an inch). I "forgot" how to walk after it healed in 2-3 weeks. But that's nothing. It was about a couple of years ago.

I was born with a nickel sized hole in my heart that never healed properly.

If that doesn't count some crazy girl slashed me in the back with a steak knife while I was on a whitewater expedition. As compensation I got a cool scar and a t-shirt that said "Scars are tattoos with better stories".

I used to ride a scooter down other people's driveways. One time during the Summer of 2002, I was going down one, but I didn't expect a car coming up. I fenderbendered it and got knocked back into the lawn. No bones were broken, but I did get a bad sprang so I had to wear a bandage around my arm for a few days. I'm just lucky I landed on grass, otherwise I probably would've never have got to 5th grade.

Giant scab tore open pouring out alot of blood. Wraped it in several bandages for a couple of days waiting for it to heal. Thank god it didn't leave a scar.

For some reason, I read that one part as "raped it in several bandages"

Nah, only thing that has ever raped me is a tentical monster. xD

Already showed the pic and told the story on this one:

(Suiseiseki reminds me that I was going to start a "What tattoos do you have?" thread, but every time I consider starting it, I remember most of you are under 18. If anyone has a really cool tattoo and wants to share it, start a thread, and I'll certainly contribute.)

Out of town. Spider bite. Infection. Gruesome. Emergency room.
I'll spare you guys the details, but it was pretty nasty looking, and I can't feel anything in that spot anymore.

Well its mostly my arms. When I was two I decided to scale my great grandmothers piano to get to some sweets.

I of course fell when everyone discovered this and freaked out. Broke my right arm :D

Thank god I don't remember it.

I'd have to say I have fallen out a window 2 1/2 stories and landed on my feet like a cat. I stood back up for .05 seconds before collapsing in pure pain. I wore 2 anti-pressure boots for a month because of the high impact sprains. But it sucked so hard. At least I had Oxycontin and it made me mellow. But it was horrible I couldn't walk or do anything. Oh the memories…

I was invested by a Suv while I was on my motorbike, and I had a broken leg for some months.
My motorbike was much less lucky. It got all crunched up.
I was almost lucky, considering the power of the impact. Most of what happened was told me, because I don't remember anything of the accident itself, despite the fact, as I was told, I was awake and screaming.
Oh! Even one of my eyes was damaged and had been all red like the one of a decepticon for a long time.

I was a very young troll living in Troll Hell when I received my worst battle wound. I was finally ready to take on the original Troll King so that I could be the new Troll King. It was a long and challenging battle, but in the end I prevailed. As everyone in Troll Hell cheered as I walked up my newly-claimed throne, a tripped on one of the stairs and got a boo-boo. I can still vividly recall the gut-wrenching agony of that boo-boo and how the crowd looked at each other awkwardly as I lay in front of the throne, sobbing.

Split my chin open when I was 3. Did the same thing to my forehead when I was 6. Stitches both times. On a related note, my cousin just fell off her horse and almost broke her skull. Went to the hospital.
I feel I've lived a sheltered life, and have a guilty concience because of it.

Well, i had metatarsal coalition in my feet (aka the bones in my feet were fusing and locking up) so i had to get surgery on both of my feet, where they filed out the cartilige, and ran one of the muscles through where they filed it out. I woke up from anasthesia screaming, because i couldn't tell if I was awake or asleep, and in my drugged state of mind, i figured that if I screamed as loud as I could, and nothing happened, i knew if i would be asleep. Apparently, I was awake.
But other than that, i spent more than half of my summer learning how to walk and stand up.

If that doesn't count as an injury, then i don't really have anything else. This kid once chucked a baseball sized rock at my face and knocked me out for a few good minutes. And I got a ropeburn once, that shit hurts.

When I was a kid, a dog attacked me and ripped off a huge chunk of my upper arm. It was so deep, you could see the bone. was immediately sent to the emergency room and had surgery. By some miracle, the only thing left to remind me of that is a nearly invisible scar and one strand of arm hair that grows a lot longer than the rest.

Also, If birth defects count, I had one which I refuse to talk about.

I was standing on a ghetto book shelf when I was like 10 it broke ended up with like 6 nails in me and they all some how went in side ways…..
That and I fractured like my entire wrist in football.

Supernumary nipple? They're not so uncommon.

But where was I? Oh yes, I meant to share a fun story of what happened to my cousin.

One day, he jumped off the roof. Instead of going right to the ground, he caught his foot on the fence part way down. The result? One of his top incisors somehow got lodged in his kneecap through his lower lip. Had to be taken to the hospital in a fetal position due to not being able to move his leg, got a few stitches in his face and his knee.

Broke my hand – never punch a wall it will always win.
Stapled my finger to a work table with an air compressor stapler.
Slight concussion – holding on to a moped while on a skate board going downhill. Speed wobbles = crash.
Scar over eyebrow from jumping from stairs and hitting my head on a low beam hanging above the stairs.
And I did all that sober.

I was four and I was jumping on my parent's bed and I hit my forehead on the headboard. I got three stitches and a cool scar.

This isn't fair for the people who aren't adults on this website, we haven't lived long enough to have meaningful stories about our stupidity.

Au contraire, mon ami russe fedora, my second-worst injury (and perhaps 1st, since it was potentially more life-threatening) happened when I was just two years old. My sister had a small glass figurine that she had just received as a present, and I wanted to see it, so I grabbed it from her. The neck snapped in two. Enraged, my sister (who was four) tried to throw the remains at me; however I was standing within arm's reach of her, so what was intended as a throw turned into a slash across the back of my neck. Got a nasty scar there that I don't think I can easily capture on my webcam.

When I was three, my mother was making macaroni and cheese for me. Already knowing how to read clocks, I knew it was done boiling, so I went to her and said, "It's ready!" She said, "Okay," and turned back to whatever she had been doing. For some reason, I interpreted this as, "Okay, you can take care of it." I went to the stove, turned the burner off, tried to lift the pot of boiling pasta…and dumped two gallons of boiling hot water down my front. As it turns out, my mother ran into the room and quickly rushed me to the bathroom where she dunked me into a cold water bath, and I ended up unscarred, but the potential was there.

Oh, and being Jewish, I had * ahem * surgery when I was only nine days old, if that counts. So, all that before I even started kindergarten.

@Daniel
It's unfortunate, perhaps, because it would probably cure me of it, but I have never punched a wall and lost. I've learned to be very proficient at patching drywall.

No my birth defect wasn't Supernumary nipple. It was something else.

Let's just say that the resulting surgery to fix it made me lose all feeling of pain in a certain area where all guys would fall on the ground and cry if hit there.

My sister had some pretty nasty self inflicted injuries when she was little. Mostly due to the fact that she is a hyper-active lunatic with no coordination of any sort. In less than two weeks time she managed to scalp herself on a swing set, cut off her ear by running into a table (my mom reattached it at the hospital, she was a surgeon), scalp herself again by running into the same swing set, scalp herself a third time by pulling out the staples holding the previous wound closed, and finally she managed to paralyze herself for a day by straining her neck muscles when she decided to jump from couch to couch and missed.

This one time while I was buying a sandwich I reached for a tray and rammed my hand into the unfinished edge of a honeycombed metal divider. It was dumb. But not serious.

This thread makes me feel like my time to sustain a serious injury is drawing near.

WHen I was 2 I was on a powerwheels and crashed into a wall, splitting my lip. I had a broken nose and stitches over my mouth, so I had to eat through a straw for a few days. Relatively minor – no broken bones! yet! knock on bones

When I was two years old, I jumped out of my mom's arms.
In a parking lot at the Texas Rangers stadium.
A rock impaled itself in my skull.
Gotta love brain damage.
