What's your stupidest injury?

[ForQuaintMintCat]

Fell out of bed injured my knee

Broke my fingers on a space hopper

Sprained my ankle watching tv. I don't even know how

When I had vertigo, I got sick on the floor, preceded to then slip on this and broke my wrist

Fell off a kerb in Sainsbury's carpark getting supplies for my own birthday party and broke my ankle. Happy birthday.

Tripped over a boot I’d just taken off.
Broke my ankle.

Stabbed myself in the hand trying to separate frozen veggie bacon.

Got a black eye from knocking into a door handle whilst picking up a towel I'd dropped!

I was lying on the floor underneath the built in unit I was dismantling and dropped the screwdriver on my face.

Fell off a coffee table, wrecked my shoulder. Might need it replaced 😂 😭

Boiling kettle on window ledge bent down and accidentally pulled on the flex ,hot water all over my neck and ears.

Cut my hand with a knife, because, I was too busy paying attention to the cut I had just done on my arm with a knife and not enough attention to the knife

After cutting myself twice I put the knife down and did something else instead!

I was away for work and had a phone meeting at 5am on something really important. Alarm went off at 4.50 and I leapt out of bed - only to discover one leg had gone to sleep and I fell over and skidded on hands and knees on the carpet. Then had to go to breakfast afterwards sporting lovely carpet burns on my knees... Much hilarity from my colleagues

Flip flop scuffed and turned in on itself on a tiled floor, broke 3 toes and my metatarsal bones in my big toe.

I microwaved a frozen doughnut, bit into it, the jam squirted out and landed on one of my legs. I was wearing shorts, I had to get in the shower put freezing water on my leg and stay there until the burning stopped. Boiling jam hurts.

Had no wine opener. I opened a bottle of wine by pushing the cork inwards with a blunt knife. Bottle exploded and lacerated my hand a few mm away from my wrist artery. Had to go to A&E to get it stitched. I worked in the local A&E at the time! Very embarrassing. The jagged scar remains today 30 years later as a reminder.

I got concussion after failing to sit on a chair. And nearly broke my arm in the same incident

For anyone who knows the military... there are certain courses that need to be done annually. I did this in what is usually one of the most boring.. alcohol awareness. No alcohol was involved.

Slipped on a picnic blanket on a bit of a hill (pissed) and sat down heavily on my own foot and broke a toe.

Kicked a kitchen bin in anger (not pissed) and instead of it flying out of the back door like it should've done my foot went through it and it cut the top of my foot very badly.

Burned myself on the fridge. Actually the lightbulb in the top of the fridge, but the DCs won't let me live it down.

Gave myself a really painful corneal abrasion with the corner of a packet of Wotsits

I was hanging out washing while DH went in the shed.
Something fell on him and he yelled, I stepped back in surprise and twisted around to see what happened and fell over and hurt my ankle.
DH came out of the shed dripping blood from a cut on his head and helped me limp into the kitchen. I sat on a chair and cleaned him up while he held a bag of frozen peas on my ankle. Luckily he didnt need stitches as neither of us could have driven.
Both ok after a few days

Took an attachment off my Dyson hoover and gave myself a black eye because I was rushing.

Half a bottle of vinegar in my eyes. Squeezing the bottle into a pan to soak my shower head in. Didn't even squeeze it that tight but the stopper thing flew out and up flew the vinegar straight into my eyes. That stuff stings like a bitch. On the upside my shower now squirts in the direction it's meant to and then stubborn stain on the kitchen floor came off after having vinegar all over it. Definitely don't recommend getting the stuff in your hair though!

I kicked the door in frustration walking off a squash court after losing a pretty meaningless match and broke 2 of my toes.

I thought they were just bruised so went to work the next day and soon ended up in agony. Went to A+E later that evening and they did a x-ray which showed both toes had clean breaks. The hospital staff thought it was hilarious that I’d spent all day trying to walk it off!

The Dyson one reminds me - I punch myself in the jaw quite often fussing with my bra straps when getting them on. I don't know what it is i do exactly but my hand slips and i give myself a right clonk. When there's a slight upper cut element to it my teeth bash together really horribly 😝

Sliced my arse open on the jagged corner of a crystal glass door knob.
