What has been your dumbest injury?

[Lockdowner35]

I slipped on the ice and I injured my leg , that was fun today

So what has been your dumbest injury?

Take your pick...

Slipped messing around by the bath and bit my tongue almost all the way off. Had to have stitches. Aged about 18 months.

Tried to walk down the slide. Fell off and broke my wrist. Aged 7 maybe.

Tipped freshly made coffee straight down myself. Aged 8/9

Turned the wrong hob on. Picked up a tray that was over the hot hob. Aged 35
I had to go to A and E. Later had the blisters lanced and dressed. Then split the skin open brushing my hair

Accidentally kicked the back of my mother’s boot whilst wearing flip flops. Broke toe

I nearly chopped my finger off when I was dusting an artsy glass plant stand and it randomly cracked in half as I was doing the dusting motion.

Moral of the story, dusting is dangerous. And so are artsy plant stands.

Dropped a heavy metal ornament on my foot while dusting. Limped for the next six weeks.

Stood on a bread bin. Surprise surprise, bread bins are not designed to take a person's weight. I've still got the scar from that.

Slipped whilst emptying content on boiling hot slow cooker. Thankfully rather than it splashing up towards my face and chest it fell awkwardly on my leg - second degree burns with dressings changed every day for 10 weeks and scar still visible 4 years on. Regret my fluffy slippers on very shiny tiles.

Shut my own head in a car door.

Still not quite sure how I managed that

Poured a bottle of nail varnish into my eye thinking it was eye drops.

Sliced my hand open on a knife that I’d stupidly put standing upwards in the dishwasher. I went to load some plates and brushed my hand over it... still makes me shiver to think about it now!

Kicked the coffee table by accident with bare feet. The slim table leg went between my toes and sheared off my little toe.

Broke my ankle falling off my high heels at a friends 18th birthday. Managed to walk home in the snow on it, wasn't till next morning that I realised how bad it was! Oh to be 18 and out getting drunk in high heels again!

Walked into French doors and broke my nose. Finest moment!

@CompleteBarstool I did that last week! Still nursing a bump

Dumbest was sprinting full-speed into a brick wall when I was 14. Shattered both my elbows and smashed my top lip. That was a tricky 6 weeks with both arms in slings...

Hit myself in the face with a swing ball racquet. Broken nose. Age 9.

Idiotic.

Sliced / stabbed my finger open trying to rescue a munted can of chickpeas with a large chef's knife. Knife slipped right over the can into my finger. The cut was so deep the fat spilled out. I nearly fainted! Still have the scar. I'm very careful with knives now.

ran across a road without looking and now have a metal ankle

4 months ago. I removed all of my kitchen knives from the dishwasher with my left hand, I then proceeded to put them into the block, one by one with my right hand. I knocked loose a very sharp paring knife from my left hand and it fell straight down and through the top of my foot. It was standing straight up, and the tip had gone into the sole of my birks. Pulling it out was interesting.

Slammed the car boot shut on my little finger, trapping it. The only way of opening the boot was a button on the dashboard and I was alone and had to wait for a passer-by to release me. Finger was broken, I lost the nail and felt like a massive twat.

Trying to put a t-shirt on yesterday and somehow in trying not to step on the crawling baby I poked myself in the eye so hard that I had to call my husband (WFH) to look after the children as I couldn't open my eyes. Took 20 minutes with an ice pack on my eye before the burning sensation stopped and I could open my eye properly.

@CompleteBarstool that cracked me up. Exactly the sort of thing I would do.

I kicked my brother in the head when we were kids and broke my toe. Served me right I suppose

Fell through a toilet seat lid...Still have bits in my rather large scar...probably should have gone to A+E

Slammed people carrier boot on my own head...literally saw stars!

Caught dinner as it fell off hob, should have let it fall, nasty burns but great painkillers!

Hopped over a ride on toy, landed on another toy and badly sprained my ankle, apparently a break would have hurt less?!

Threw a snowball at a window
Window broke and shattered all over my brother on the inside
Ran to help him, slipped on the glass and got glass sticking into my knee.
He was completely unscathed though

Erm I don't think I have enough words to comment .
