Definitely some painful sounding experiences peoples.

I have been reasonably lucky but I have 2 experiences that are close on the pain-o-meter.

The first was fracturing my sternum when we rolled my cousins hilux. I didn't really feel the pain until a day or two later which made me almost drop to the ground in pain. Under doctors orders I couldnt do any sport, lifting or even driving for 3 months.

Number 2 happened last monday. I was drilling out spot welds on the front of my brothers EB fairmont ready to swap the damaged front for a straight one. Anyway while drilling the drill bit grabbed and snapped and somehow the power drill slipped out of my hands and landed drill bit first into the top of my right foot. Seeing as I only had thongs on it hurt to say the least. I have never seen blood literally squirting before and that scared the crap out of me. With no one around and no car with me I had to jump onto the ride on mower and head home a few blocks away. From there I got a lift to the hospital. The damage was a deep cut and some ligament damage.
