    Damn some of these pictures are hard to look at. My list includes two herniated disks and a fused lumbar sacral joint. Broke my right arm twice, one time was a compound fracture. 4 broken wrists, 2 of those were both at the same time which really sucked. Other smaller stuff, stitches, broken fingers, broken nose. The majority of these injuries were skateboarding/snowboarding related lol. The broken bones are nothing compared to my back injury, i got surgery 3 years ago but i am still in pain from it. I wish i had some pictures! Ill hafta try to dig some up.

    How did the back happen? Accident or just life? My wife has horrible back issues..no surgery yet thank God, but the chiropractor is a godsend..as is memory foam.

    Accident, i slammed really hard skateboarding. I landed on my hip right on the edge of a ramp and twisted my spine so hard that it blew out my bottom two discs. Surgery helped alot but it might be time for round two soon, i reinjured it lifting a piece of granite for work and lately i have been getting shooting pains down my left leg and numbness and tingling in my left foot. It is such an annoying injury, i cant even imagine what my back is going to be like in 20 years, i need a desk job lol.

    Haha holy shit! That looks horrible!

    Broke my wrist wrestling a bear. Had it in a headlock and it started rolling and grabbed my wrist and snapped it.


    Not really. I was playing volleyball, but what kind of story is that?

    Some of you are lucky to be alive... I remember breaking my arm when I was like 6. No pics though. That was probably my worst injury. That and riding my dirt bike through the woods, front tire slipped in front of me, saved it but my arm side swiped a tree. Talk about a lot of blood and a major burn. Probably going between 30-40 mph too.
