Ribs, Collar bone and stirnum all happened in the same game of football... was going over the middle for a pass... it was thrown high so I jumped... caught a face mask to my ribs by some 15 year old in a 35 year old body... broke my ribs, tried to brace the fall and broke my collar bone... went out... came back in to run back a kick off... and spun away from one guy but into another... and caught a face mask to the chest and fractured my stirnum...

fractured my pinky punch'n a wall after a bad loss in a basketball game... yeah I was proud of that.

ankle was a the start of my Junior year... in pre game warm ups... my point guard tried to steal a ball from me but stepped under my foot and caused me to roll it OUT... I sat out most of the year... never did regain my vertical leap...

toes were from wheel'n off road... a friend backed over my foot... twice. yeah about 30 mins apart from each other...

I would love to have seen the doctors reaction when he started examining you and found all those things broken.

What funny is this thread started by me and a friend having a conversation about my high threshold of pain. When I broke my face (see thread below) it didnt hurt all that bad to me. I also drove a staple through my finger last week at work and it only tingled for a little while.

lol Yes, I've broken a few:

Right ankle
Left wrist
Took off the end of my left ring finger (including the bone - it was subsequently reattached)
Smith fracture of the right radius and ulna, both sides of both wrist joints broken at the same time
Several toes

*knock on wood*

Left ring finger playing softball, right pinky toe being a clutz and L-1 vertebrae breaking a horse (guess it showed me who was more easily broken, huh?)

Broken more cartilage than bones... Nose x3... thumb x1... sprained both ankles at least 3x each... dislocated both thumbs and a couple fingers... strained MCL in one knee, severely strained ACL in the other... that's be diagnosed, both have fallen out of place a number of times since... pooped a german shepard once, but that was just coincidence....

Fractured skull: Fell down a flight of stairs and hit a radiator, head on, when I was 4.

Broken collarbone: Got hit from behind while riding by a guy who claimed to be a former racer, while I was braking to avoid an idiot in a car. Apparently he'd never heard of 'loading the front wheel' prior to applying full brakes.

Re-broken collarbone: A photography accident.

- Broken nose from when my brother threw a baseball at me.
- Broken ring and middle finger on my left hand playing football
- Broken ribs playing football
- Broken ribs from a dirt bike crash

That's about it for broken bones. I have far too many soft tissue injuries to list.

When I was 5 (just a couple weeks before starting Kindergarten), I was at my day school, climbing around in a big net/treehouse. They yelled up to me that my Gramma was there to pick me up for swimming lessons, so I hurriedly scrambled out of the net, falling through a large hole, and landing on my back (some 10' below) with my arm bent behind my back.

I wailed and cried, and my Gramma thought I was being over-dramatic, so she ignored me. My mom was outta town, and I was spending the night at my Aunt's house that night. I cried and cried, and she, too, thought I was crying wolf.

(Note the pattern here). Finally the next day when I was still wailing, she took me to the Doctor -- arm was broken clear across, just above the elbow.

Then when I was about 14, I was at school, hanging out with a friend just before 1st period. It was winter, and there was some patchy ice on the sidewalk. We went running around a corner and I slid and landed on my ass. Went to first period, where I had a Substitute teacher for Spanish. My hand and wrist were all swollen (my left hand, and I'm a Lefty) but she was a total bitch, and just told me to do my work with my right hand.

After class, I was in massive pain, so I went to the nurse's office so they could call my Mom. Turned out it wasn't my hand at all, but my elbow - I shattered the radial head.
