The "accidents" thread.

COMBO BREAKER!!!

I wiped out stuntskiing when I younger. I had a 2 inch gash on my race helmet (I stunt and raced) Scary thing is I had been debating on taking my goggles off my helmet and only kept them on because I was too lazy to take it back to the car.

I accidently hung my self playing in a treehouse when I was about 3 1/2 ears old, the same year I almost drowned in a swimming hall.

Recently nothing happened to me

Recently this TV was dropped on my little finger when we moved it in. Hint: It’s not a flatscreen, it’s 36 inches, and weighs a FUCKING TON. Unfortunately, distasteful images of the wound aren;t available :frowning:
.

No word of a lie, we had the exact same TV. I can confirm that it wieghs A FUCKING TON. Its that heavy, that when you pick it up, the plastic on the bottom begins to cut through your fingers.

^This. Now imagine dropping it from about 15cm onto your pinky, while moving forwards. Nasty gash,surprised it didn’t take my finger clean off :confused:
.

This one time, I was riding down the road, and noticed the front tire of my bike seemed a little off.

Its axle was completely detached and only friction was holding it on.

As a baby, once I was on my momma’s arm and she held me while speaking to my granny. I was playfully sticking my arm through a nearby railing when she suddenly turned around to leave after saying goodbye. My shoulder was put out of joint.

As a kid, once I was stupid enough to join my friends in a game of “dodge-stone”. We were throwing stones at each other and those that were thrown at had to dodge them. I hit my best friend with a rock the size of my fist (I had run out of smaller ones) and his skull cracked, he immediately started to bleed heavily. I nearly killed him. He survived but still has a weak point in his skull to this day. Kids are fuckin stupid.

I flew from my bike countless times and still bear the scars of several wounds I got by falling face down on the asphalt.

Once, as a kid, my friends and me climbed some scaffolds at a restricted building site and I fell off one, breaking my arm.

My best friend once nearly put out my eye with a stick he had held into a selfmade campfire and kept poking at me playfully, taunting me with it.

As a really small kid, I once climbed out of my crib and got into the living room while my parents where away. Then I lit the candles on the living room table, because flames are so beautiful and shiny, and accidently toppled them over. As the table cover quickly caught fire, I panicked and ran back to my parents’ room, hiding under the bed. It saved my life because by the time somebody had called the firefighters, nearly all the flat was full of smoke. The whole living room and parts of the hall were burnt, and for the following weeks I had to live with my grandparents.

As a teenager, while playing in the woods near my hometown with my cousin, I unknowingly crossed a poorly designated border to the neighboring troop exercise field, which was scheduled for artillery exercise that day. We were fascinated by all the bullets and empty shells lying around and started looking for trophies when suddenly, shells started hitting a nearby wood, making the ground shake and nearly deafening us with all the noise. We panicked and ran all the way back home, never telling our parents about it. We weren’t hurt in that one, but it was an “accident” all the same, I would think.

One day, I must have been twelve or so, all the kids from my neighborhood started playing in the large garbage containers that a construction firm had put near one of our homes, to collect garbage from a house that was being renovated or something like that.
During play, I stumbled and landed hands first in a breaking glass window. Can’t remember ever having bled so much before or afterwards. A miracle I still have all my fingers.

Upon my first drive with my very own car, right after receiving my driver’s licence, I accidently hit a wall and panicked, driving all the way back home and never even trying to tell the owner of the place.
The police followed shortly after. They had identified my car by bits of glass that had broken off my front lights and had a number engraved in them. Also, nearly two dozens of people had seen me and called the cops on me.
The policeman was from my neighborhood, and knew me and my parents well. He said that the owner of the wall I had hit did not want to be compensated, as there was really no visible damage on the concrete at all, and that since this was my first ride and my first real accident, he would give me a second chance.

There’s much more to tell, but I have to sign out for now.

I’ve been hit by a car while riding my bike, electrocuted no less than 5 times, thrown face first into a concrete wall as a child (by a dog, not another person!) and got a nasty head wound from playing football on a sheet of ice.

Someone’s accident prone… o_O

edit: that was @ DD, but I guess it also applies to Rabid… :rolleyes:

I shooted myself in the foot with a pellet gun when I was 11. DAMN it hurted

Also, my hand got rolled over by a skate (with a skater on top of it)

When I was around 7 or so, I went everywhere and did everything outside. We lived an a rather large acerage, or at least large enough for a 7 year old to think it was the best playground evar.

7 was around the time I was learning to ride a bike without training wheels. I was pretty successfull, except for one time where I nearly lost both eyes.

I had just recently got a new bike that was a little bit too big for me and proceeded to drive around everywhere. Up hills, down hills, wherever I wanted. I went down a very small hill, just happened to lose control at the worst possible moment, couldnt stop because I couldnt reach the ground, and proceeded to ride straight into a barbed wire fence.

Being a good mammal with preprogrammed instincts I threw my left arm to cover my eyes at the last moment, and my arm was ripped wide open.

Needless to say I still have an 8" scar to this day and I have my left arm to thank for my eyesight.

I had to get stitches after falling off of a dresser I was trying to climb when I was 3 or 4 years old.

I got a toenail crushed by a guy on rollerskates once. Damn I should’ve wore shoes.

I would have thought that an exercise field is enclosed, so that no one can get inside. In Frankfurt/Main is a small Bundeswehr office area where no weapons or vehicles are stored, yet they have 3 meter high fences with barbed wire and everything oO

The last accident I have been in was in April. I was going down the highway when I suddenly saw the red flash of a speed camera. I was distracted by how I could trigger the camera with 90 km/h since 100 km/h were allowed, when a Dodge Nitro flew past me, grinded along the crash barrier on its roof, crashed back on the road and flipped over a couple of times. Luckily, the driver and her dog were not hurt, but it still was an intense experience

The way “accidents” in the title is in quotes implies sinister motive behind every mishap in this thread. i reckon something is afoot

I’ve never actually broken a bone in my body, at least not knowingly
.

Me and some friends were driving around one night in seattle, and we stopped to drop a couple of em off. i was in the backseat, so when we drove off i started to crawl over the front seat so i’d be riding shotgun. Despite how utterly stupid this was, i gave my friend a heads up. We were going downhill, then my friend somehow went into neutral and the car halted and i flew face-first and cracked my head on the windshield. I blacked out for a moment with my muffled friend going “Emil, are you alright? I’m not kidding, are you alright!”. My eyes were glued shut but i managed to mumble some form of reassurance to him, tho my whole face felt like a brick. then i glanced at the windshield and there was now a huge spiderweb crack in the glass.:jizz:

Me and my little cousin were exploring the forest by my grandparent’s house, We see on the horizon that there seems to be some smoke, I point it out to my other cousins and they say it was nothing and just some stupid kids playing with fire. Later that day me and my little cousin go back because he lost his toy, and we see a sinkhole, we were throwing rocks into it for a while.

Then I see that in front of is there is a huge fire that had made it all the way to us, we ran and ran and I had to carry my cousin because he was too slow, luckily we made it to the clearing and the fire trucks had gotten there in time. Needless to say coming out of the fire looked pretty bad-ass. No one got hurt but I might as well count it as an accident if Danson gets to count his artillery experience as one.

I was listening to music on my computer with my headphones supposedly on. I was listening to the song Juicy Pen by Ozi (Those who know the song, you’d know it’s VERY sexual, with lyrics that can make one orgasm just from hearing it). My speakers were on, turned to FULL VOLUME, also. What I didn’t know was that my headphones weren’t plugged in so POP goes the sexually explicit song with my mom’s friends in the next room.

Ran my right arm through the glass window in school’s door, got 23 stitches and was half an inch away that my right arm wouldn’t move ever again :confused: Got 2 about 8cm long scars on the top of my arm and 2 about 5 inch long scars on the “under side” of my arm.
