i know, those metal parts i used to handle were 400Â°C and the gloves i wore were hardly helping...

And i once crushed my thumb in a door hinge, that made me run around and scream like in a cartoon.....

Well, at least you didn't CLIP it off, like some people I know.

We seem to be drifting away from the original topic, but let's go on with that because it's more awesome.

What's the worst injury you've gotten, /osc/?

To start, I tore up my right leg from foot to knee once while swimming. Antibiotics saved from amputation, close call, etc. Fuckma, that hurt.

I knew a guy that jumped off a 7ton military truck and got his wedding band stuck, stripped the skin off his finger.

CHE-

Fub. That hurts just thinking about.
Are we calling worst injury for pain or sheer damage, here?

CaptBrenden · February 05, 2009, 04:48:12 PM

if its sheer damage, Ill go with the guy that was cruhed between the 7ton truck and the tank that was backing up, or the guy that was welding with a bic lighter in his pocket. blew him in two I was told.

Hey, calling on others' injuries is cheating!
What've you survived, personally?

CaptBrenden · February 05, 2009, 04:51:59 PM

shrapnel.

NejinOniwa · February 05, 2009, 04:56:03 PM

Elaborate. No experience on that.

CaptBrenden · February 05, 2009, 05:14:13 PM

Shrapnel, it comes from things that explode. Flying twirling bits of mental. Secondary shrapnel is when the explosive device causes things near it to fly as well, like putting an artilary round in a concrete curb as a boobytrap. primary shrapnel comes from the metal artillary round, the secondary shrapnel comes from the concrete of the curb. Some devices like claymore mines have ball berrings in them to act as shrapnel

any questions?

ouch, last picture

NejinOniwa · February 05, 2009, 05:27:25 PM

I know "what" it is, I was referring to your case/most notable case. Cause, location, etc.

CaptBrenden · February 05, 2009, 05:32:08 PM

Frankly id rather not talk about it. My wounds were minor. others died. Rather not remember specifices thanks. But as far as the most ive survived injury wise thats about the top of the list.

NejinOniwa · February 05, 2009, 05:35:25 PM

As you wish, then~ Sorry 'bout that, but I'm a heartless kinda guy, you know, I have some difficulties relating sometimes, emotion-wise.

CaptBrenden · February 05, 2009, 05:37:49 PM

anyhow, come to think of it, i also had my pinky finger broken in bootcamp by a drill instructor that didnt want me in the drill inspection

NejinOniwa · February 05, 2009, 05:42:01 PM

Hoo~ That sounds a bit...off.

Then again, my shoulder bone has an odd twist in it, looks like it's been broken, but I haven't. Shit's creepy.

Also my texan second cousin once headbutted me, breaking two of my ribs. That was fuckma'd up.
