ramming my foot on a rebar after a playfull nudge by a friend on a dammed area near waterfalls and trying to figure out underwater what's getting my leg stuck..and an hour on the rapids with same leg stuck between 2 hidden boulders sideways with 2 guys pulling and the other pushing as not to crack my shin waiting for the rescue team which by that time i must have drunk bout a drum of water and had risen to neck high...nice experiences though[}:)]

Stepped of the board straight legged full weight on cobbler.

Hit in the face with a surf board, dislocated jaw, teeth were close to 2" out of alignment, had to paddle back out of the impact zone and crunch it back into place.

Head on collision with a drunk driver in 1985, had a stuffed neck ever since.

Duck dived under a 8 ft cleanup set old cobbles, dived deep, kicked hard popped up eventually at the back of the wave started paddling only to get sucked over the falls, held onto the board that hard I left 8 finger marks in the bottom of the board, put everything out in my back from stem to stern.

Living with migraines and 3 day headaches.

BLOODY DRUNK DRIVERS [}:)]

kid brother loosens quick release on the front wheel of my bike, as a joke

Unaware of the above...i ride bike at full speed and do a small jump off curb...

for a fraction of a second i see front wheel fly off then proceed to catapult and faceplant into the road, with feet still securley attached into pedals...

thanks bro

cobbler - a fish with no scales and 2 poisonous barbs on either side near the gills.
when stood on causes excruciating pain.
not nice things

sounds like a naked stonefish but not really mav thanks

Agree Cobblers probably the worst - only times were in my teens when launching sailing dinghies a few times - after the second time learnt to wear wetsuit boots - funny that there don't seem to be as many around now days - or am I just becoming old and think things were more prolific in the "old days".

10 year old - falling of a jetty while mucking around with a mate - grabbing the foot wooden railing as I fall in and scrambling with my feet to get some purchase on the verticle wave breaking wooden boards (barnacle encrusted at water level) - needless to say all my toes and the front balls of my feet were shredded - infections and pain for weeks. What a stupid thing to do

Hit from behind in the back of the head by a brick at a school camp at 13 following a testosterone induced argument with a total dropkick, knocking me out for a few minutes - result many stitches and re-occuring headaches.

Rear-ended in car collision at 21 - I was stopped at giveway sign, the other person didn't notice me stopped, he reckoned. Bad back ever since.

Rolling a car in the country and having a tool box I had behind the passenger seat gouge the back of my head - more stitches - atleast it just gouged and didn't land square

Funny how most occurred when I was a young teenager.

The worst I've seen is the result of someone getting tyre ringed when I was working away. They fill the inside of a tyre with petrol, jamm it down over the top of you, which locks your arms, then light it - I think this would be one of the worst ways to die.

Nearly threw up at the sight of this one occurring when I was about 14 - mooring a boat at Rottenst at the jetty with a strong easterly - one of the crew had hold of a rope and also the 1x19 wire sidestay - large wave = spliced finger into sidestay - flesh all mangled and squashed apart - not a pretty sight. Needless to say top half of his finger was lost - too mangled to repair.

PS: Mark's with the red hot nut up the nose is an absolute classic - can't imagine the pain of that one. Either worst luck possible or a likely winner of the Darwin awards.

that rocky looking sandbar is clearly deep enough ill make it over that no worries...........

Walking up stairs at Ulludulla, took a chunk of skin off the ball of my foot - bloody nail sticking out. It was a hike back to the van so my wife helped my along with my t-shirt wrapped around my foot. She put her back out and couldnt move her left arm without bad pain. It was a 2 hour drive home, but I couldnt press the clutch and she couldnt change gears. So she drove, but I changed the gears.

My only regret about this post is that there are no pictures of the red hot nut up Mark's nose.
I know its not funny to laugh at people's misfortunes, but that has had me laughing for days ..... everytime I see the thread at the top of the list I start uncontrollable smirks and giggles.

aaaagh well, just shows the sad and sorry nature of some people

and everytime I see the post I get flashbacks and a nervous twitch. I can still feel the bastard trust me.........

goto agree with elmo and king, i don't think anything can beat cobbler pain....

its so painfull you make up new swearwords.....

I dunno, I helped my wife give birth. That looked pretty f'ing painful. I've been waiting for a lass to comment on this thread...

Not too painful compared to some others (Marks a classic, still giggling, sorry) but more stupidity.
Ran full tilt into a tree near sideline at footy practise on end of backline. Lump on forehead the size of a plum, out cold for 10 minutes.
Jumped on my board in shorebreak and at the same time a fisherman cast and his hook went into my Achilles tendon. One foot on board and foot 3 feet in air until he let the line go, that one hurt.
Toddler daughter threw a straight right into my jatz crackers, still hurts when I think about it.
Landing from a great height onto the nose of my surfboard, exploding my boardies and budgie smugglers and having to explain the big hole to the emergency department at Manly hospital while all the nurses laughed their heads off!!
8 stitches and I was too embarrassed so I got my dad to take them out a week later.
