I have been in 4 car accidents on the freeway (2 major, 2 minor). Once cut myself being careless with a skill saw. And drove myself to the hospital in an unforgiving truck because my appendix wanted to be removed.
The two most memorable painful events are much less dramatic. The first involved basically stubbing my little toe on a door jam. Spiral fracture.
The other was when I was a teenager. Was all excited to take my first dirt bike out to the trails. Me and a buddy were loading it up. We had to lift it into a truck. I grabbed the back of the bike on the swing arm. When the bike started to roll forward my thumb was between the swing arm and a bolt from the sprocket. It seemed like time stood still when I realized what was happening. Lost half my thumbnail but luckily it grew back. Of course we still went to the trails.
