For most of my aches and pains, if I think about it, I can give you circuit and turn.

Well except for the ones that are blanked out.
(Mr. Morphine is your friend but he does tend to leave you with short term memory loss.)

Even the last accident, where somebody ran over my chest and we got red flagged (the ultimate accolade for a really good crash), may have had been the reason for the later heart attack.

Stung a bit.

Managed an amusing injury just before the new year with duct tape.

Attempting to fix a puncture on the club RIB (i know...) i attempted to bite the new roll of tape to cut it as i was too lazy to get my shears out of my pocket.
Bit and tore the tape and struck by intense pain. Unknown to me the tape had stuck itself firmly to my lips so when i tore it sideways the tape came off my lips neatly removing all the skin off them at the same time leaving me standing in the car park with a bit of duct tape stuck to my chin with blood pouring down my face.
Trainee (first ever dives) was "Oh my god that looks awful" followed 20 seconds later by "let me get my camera".

The dive in salt water later in the day hurt but nowhere near as much as when i tried to drink a brandy the day later.

Ive done other more serious injuries but for amusement value for others the duct tape one seems to be my best effort.

Managed to dislocated my shoulder trying to swat a moth, got the piss taken out of me for ages at work for that

Was trying to escape a savage wasp attack, when I ran out of the room and jumped over a chair that was in the doorway. Smack! My head hit the top of the door frame and I cracked my skull open. Ended up with 14 stiches.

Ar5e!!!

I can add another one, my 17 year old daughter who can dance like an angel is as clumsy as hell otherwise, yesterday she fell UP the stairs and broke a metatarsel...

Hmm, being about 8 years old and wondering if I could "tipple-tail" downstairs.

I could.

I just couldnt stop.

waking up after swinging on a rope swing in our local woods with my mates looking down at me and telling me I have a hole in through my lip.

Putting a plug into the socket without the back on (just to see if I had wired it up correctly) - that was fun.

It's a wonder I'm still here really.
