How accident prone are you.  as for myself i snapped the tendon on my third finger left hand and had to wear a splint for 12 weeks all because i was scratching my leg.( mind you it was hell of an itch) now i leave well alone.

I'm one of the clumsiest people going  

Always doing myself an injury. At the hospital many times as a kid. At one stage they said they were going to name a ward after me  ;D ;D

Recently fell on the back door step and was on crutches for several days.

But the worst was about 5 years ago when I got hit by a car.

Fractured wrist,  6 staples in my head (still got the dent!) and bruises absolutely everywhere.

Don't think I've ever been right since!  [smiley=lol.gif]

I once spilled boiling lard from the chip pan all down my leg. Oh, the pain.
I to was run over by a car Cazzer but it was many years ago. Just before we got married infact. Sill have a bad scar on my foot. My Engagement ring was squished, saved my finger though.My coat was torn off my back and my shoe was ripped off my foot and flung half way up the street. I was lucky to get away with the few injuries I did someone watchin over me.

Had many fractures as a kid, mostly as a result of not looking where I was going and falling off kerbs, walls etc.
Fell off a pair of shoes 3 years ago believe it or not. I was breaking them in for my brother's wedding, ended up with a fractured wrist. Wouldn't mind but I was sober at the time and they weren't even high heeled. :-[

Well this is a long one.Coming home from a beer festival at 2.00 am on my puash bike with no lights.Going down an hill, about 700 yrds from home.Coming down the other side of the hill is also a dickhead on a push bike with no lights.At the bottom we meet, front tire on front tire.I fly over the handle bars and land on my head.Result being = fractured skull and  a brain movement of 1 cm.
Drs said if i was lucky i would be blind.If i was unlucky then i would spend the rest of my life in a wheelchair.
But here i am walking and looking about.
Still as daft as before but now i have a reason for it.

HA! HA! HA!    :-/

Well i did leave home at 9,00 am and was on my way home at about 2.15 am the next day.Draw your own conclusions.The thing being my lights were  off because the dynamo was not working.After the accident my dad had a look and lo and behold i had connected a wire wrong.Needless to say i do little work on stuff like that myself.Everything now goes to an expert in their field
