When I was about 7 years old, I got pushed onto a railroad track by some bully. Needless to say, I fell and cracked my forehead open on the cold steel of the track. I lost a lot of blood, got 15 stitches and now have a cool scar on my head, basically right between my eyes. (Right between my eyes, but on my forehead. Like in the middle of the forehead basically.)

I once cut my finger pretty bad and caused it to bleed a lot. Got 3 stitches.

Sprained my wrist during taekwondo, and fractured my knuckle.

Thats all.

That's why I carry a knife. :D The bully would have had a hole through his head 3x as deep as mine, and twice as long...

^WIN

I still have gravel in my knees and my head from my driveway. I crashed my bike a lot when I was a kid.

When I was a baby, my cousin dropped me 3 feet headfirst onto the corner of the porch, then fell 3 more feet to the ground. Apparently I didn't cry either.

I watched my friend's older brother pop a wheelie going down a hill, and the front tire fell off in midair. I've never seen anyone eat that much dirt EVER.

no real major injuries here, I do have one scar, from portablizing too!

in my 5th portable, if you go look it up, you'll see that the wires for the cart slot com out of the bottom. Well, I had to cut the plastic in order to be able to do that. so I scored a line(lazily and hastily) while sitting down Indian style with the case in my room, and in the middle of the cut, it went off track and dug into my leg. I bled all over everything, should've gotten stitches but didn't. I call it, the mark of the portablizer.

That reminds me.

Thanks shock.

I was once working on my dreadful genesis PORTABLE, when I was cutting the plastic with a heated up exacto blade. The blade slipped, and went into me stomach. No harm done, just bled. Didn't damage any internal organs.

Been trying to ignore possibly fake claims... But somehow, the idea of a genesis emulator made with plastic seems so implausible, that I must point it out.

Also, he is known as SS for short, not "shock". ;)

crap, I meant portable. Lol

Thats what I get for playing streets of rage all day.


What they did to "seal" up the stomach cut, was put some weird skin glue on it. No stitches required, although it left a weird scar.

Let's see... I broke the little toe on my left foot by smashing it into a wall on my way upstairs. I also twisted my ankle in a bike wreck and it hurt like hell, so I was really surprised when my sister broke her ankle a few weeks ago when she crashed her motorcycle - she could still walk on it, flex it, and she even kick-started the motorcycle because it stopped running! I guess I have an epically low pain tolerance.

Speaking of motorcycle wrecks, I lost a dime-sized piece of skin on my right palm when I wrecked a few months back. And by that I mean I literally lost the skin - bare flesh expozed! Lots of dirt under the skin, too. Hurt quite a bit and I couldn't use gamepads for a week, but it got better. Now there's a pink spot where it healed up.

I was going down the mountain road on my kick-scooter at around 10-20km/h (or whatever, scooters don't have speedos. :P) then I ran over a rock and my scooter flipped forward launching me with it. Then I got tumbled over and over and over before sliding to a stop.

I had no protective equipment whatsoever (no helmet, no knee/elbow/hand pads.... nothing) when that happened. Bad cuts, grazes and wounds, but no broken bones or concussions.
lol i did the same thing! :lol: except i HAD MY PSP IN MY POCKET! :oops: Weird thing is it didn't break my psp it broke the will off the scooter. 8)

Not hoping to injure yourself, are you?
