"interesting (and weird) facts about yourself" thread

Damn, I wish you woulda told my parents that. They put me in the sports. I had no interest in them as a competition. Loved the sports but not to play every Saturday in a game. Think maybe I can sue my parents for my pain and suffering 16 years later????

 

Man F that. I don't care what people say. Doctors make the money they make and charge because they are suppose to catch this shit. I would have torn his belly open and pulled out his guts and said " Were even". If your a doctor get your shit together or don't be a doctor. Drive a bus!!

 

I had a friend when I was in grade school who had a really bad twitch. His head would twitch and then his eyes and mouth would open wide. It hit him about every 10-20 minutes. He eventually got it fixed (pinched nerve or something like that). We used to call him "winkie". I can't believe we were that insensitive. He took it in stride though.

 

I have an Identical twin brother. I also fell head first out of a second story building and walked away with a slight 2 inch scratch. Paramedics brought a body bag. Said if the sprinklers weren't on and if you were 6 inches to the left (concrete) , and my favorite " This is probably the only time I will ever say this as a EMT but Alcohol saved your life", I would be dead. Rough housing in those college days! I guess the alcohol relaxed my body to absorb the impact.

 

When I was in fourth grade me and my dad were throwing a baseball back and forth and one of those times it went through my glove and knocked my front two teeth out. We called the dentist who said to soak them in milk for a bit then to stick them back in my mouth and we did(which hurt like hell) and then the dentist put a bracket on my teeth for a few months and now it's like they never got knocked out

 

I love you.

 

NICE! Highest I went was about the same. Looking at a first decent of a 85-90 footer. Its going to be one hell of a hit though!

I think the funniest thing about big drops is that on film it looks like they are really fast. In reality you are so full of adrenaline they often seem to take forever.

Freestyle is really my bag:







Sounds like I am getting picked up by the DemJoez/Demshitz crew as of last weekend

 

Wow, I would have never known you grew up smoking weed instead of going to school unless you told us.

 

Weed is pretty tame for the gauley.

 

I have metal in my spine.

 

When I was a kid (about 8), my father and I were shoveling snow from the driveway. I was using the only snow shovel and my dad was using a regular shovel. I had bent down to get a scoop of snow just as my father swung his shovel back and he hit me in the forehead with the point on the spade. Luckily he was just at the end of the stroke. It knocked me on my back and I was bleeding pretty good but I only had to get some stiches; nothing broke.

When I was younger, about 5 years old, I had a series of head injuries whenever I went to visit my grandmother (three times in three weeks), each time requiring stitches, but nothing broken. The first one I got hit by a swingset glider right on the bridge of my nose (still have the scar), my mother said the cut looked like a third eye. The next week, I fell back in a chair and hit the back of my head on my grandmother's brick fireplace mantle. There was another one but I don't remember what it was. My grandmother asked my mother not to come over for a while because I was getting hurt so much. The hospital was suspecting abuse (which was unusual back then).

 

I'm bulletproof.

When I was 18, I was chased by 4 punks around my old neighborhood and all 4 of them were shooting at me in a car chase. Cops recovered over 60 spent shells and all 4 guns, and not a single bullet hit me or my car. I had my window down while we were racing around city streets and I could hear the bullets whizzing by the window and hitting off the pavement all around me. They ended up crashing head-on into a parked car when trying to get up next to me, and I got away to call the cops.

When I was 24, I got hit head-on by a drunk driver in my old '92 single cab Toyota 4-banger. I wasn't wearing a seatbelt and the truck was totaled up to the firewall. I literally walked away from the wreck with only 5 stitches to my scalp and a bruised knee. The other guy had a broken neck and didn't know it, and when he climbed out of his back window and jumped out of the bed of his truck to run away, he severed his own spinal cord and died at the hospital.

 

HA, well played sir. It was 3 in the morning cut me a brake.

 

Just messin with you man

 

I have a rectangular toe nail on my right side big toe.

 

In college myself and a couple other friends in the society of automotive engineers build the worlds only turbo diesel snowmobile. It's pretty sick, youtube it. It got better and better over the years

 

Nice shot of Oceana man. I will never run anything that big again, to big of a stroke, overrotate. To little land flat. Dont get the paddle parrell to the boat or tuck right Ouch. To many variables and you really only get one stroke. I never really got into rodeo. I am the only person from the southeast that cartwheel, I went straight to creeking. Mad props on getting the sponsor. I have boated with Tommy Hillieke quiet a bit up here in CO and it is a pleasure to watch him boat. Be safe and eddies are overrated bro

 

I have a cadaver Achilles tendon in my knee (ACL reconstruction). It's the white thing in the middle of the picture...



Oh and I had half my ear cut off after being tackled into a beer pong table that was made out of sheet rock, that sucked, but it got reattached

 

Its all good bro, the way I figure it I am from Alabama. I have all my teeth, I can read, I dont have the deliverance accent and I have never attempted to sleep with a cousin. I am not only a head of the curve but I am one hell of a catch in the south

 

I have the same thing; my head goes left though. Im not sure when it started but I've had it for years.
