stupidest injuries

well there have been some very famous examples of these, for instance santiago canizares the spanish number one keeper at the 2002 world cup in korea and japan dropped a huge bottle of aftershave on his foot, which smashed and severed a tendon in his foot, as a result he missed the entire tournament and was replaced by iker cassilas.

i myself experienced this stupidity this very morning, i rolled over to pull the bed covers over me and my shoulder popped out, and it hurt....a lot....it seems ok now......but aches like hell....

any other stupid examples or stories out there?

I once went to punch a guy in the face, but he turned around just before and I cracked my hand hitting him on the back of the head... Then when I was playing table tennis and dived for some reason straight into the wall next to me, broke my thumb..

When I was really young my dad was ironing and I jumped off the bed and straight into the iron.. Can still remember that hurting

Cannot forget Dave Beasant (yes, the wonder keeper himself) breaking his foot by dropping a bottle of mayonaise on it......

I'm sure a Man Utd player at the time broke his foot by putting it through his coffee table, think it was Andy Cole....


Best one i know of personally was my mates brother broke his arm rollerblading... a week later he went playing footie, played in net, and broke his other arm....

How about stacking a bike without looking where you are going?

I was 10 and very much into diving - a bit like Harry Kewell really but 10 was my real age, it's just his mental one.

I went off the 5 metre diving board.

I missed the pool (at first). I leave the rest to your imagination other than to say that I spent quite some time in hospital.
