“From Faceplants to Fails: You Won’t Believe How These 43 People Managed to Hurt Themselves in Outrageously Dumb Ways!”
When I was a teenager I was messing around in the park with my friends (as you do) and got everyone to spin me as much as they could on the roundabout. When I got off I was so dizzy, I didn’t just stagger sideways I literally leapt sideways onto my own head and gave myself a concussion.
I’d stupidly started doing YouTube aerobics and was really stiff afterwards (steady). I was walking back from a meeting and went to step off a kerb and tore my calf muscle. Thank f**k my friend was with me because I was in so much pain I probably would’ve been run over. As it was I thought I was going to puke and pass out simultaneously.
So yeah, tore my gastrocnemius crossing the road.
Oh I have a few…
Broke my leg slipping in a patch of booze whilst dancing enthusiastically to The Prodigy.
Broke my toe by stubbing it on a corner whilst hoovering naked.
Had to have 15 stitches in my hands when I picked my cat up to rescue it from a fight with anther cat.
Fell over putting my socks on and gave myself a black eye – I tried to break my fall, but punched myself instead.
Cut my finger using a slightly serrated butter knife to open a pack of cheese. It moved fast when it opened.
Also managed to run my finger along the edge of a very sharp knife while drying it.
