After I returned from the pool, I had to go pee so bad. I didn't want to run through the house, so I was skipping (It's a brilliant idea to skip while wet)......Woooooosh, hit the tile. I broke my ankle. I call it "the extreme skipping accident of '06"

I win! I decided it would be fun (as a full grown man) to get inside a large cardboard box and gracefully "slide" down a large set of stairs. Upon stopping rolling at the bottom I soon discovered I had broken my collar bone and my right arm. And yes, I was completely sober at the time.

I was making a pie crust and a fly was flying about in the kitchen.
Since my hands were all covered with flour and dough, as it landed on the table, I took a dish towel in my hand and hit at the fly.
I hit my finger on the end of table and broke it.
I had to go to the emergency room and the frequent question I got was "did you kill the fly".
It was most embarrassing.
Thank you for asking this question as the answers are soooooooo funny. I am having a good laugh.
No I did not kill the fly lol.

Hot summer day wearing a dress stepped on the back of a persons shoe and landed flat on my face! Somehow i didn't break anything but sure hurt my pride and had a raw scrape just above my upper lip for a while .Couldn't cover with bandage and ever little bit of breeze hit and OUCH! I was 45 at the time.

Jumped over a sprinkler, hit the wet grass, fell to the ground and broke my arm. The trials, tribulations and stupid things we do as a kid!
Another one: decided to hang onto an open area above the stairs to the basement swung, let go, and landed badly spraining my ankle (11 yrs. old and I thought i was a daredevil. silly me.)
EDIT: Yep, Chaosman wins, that's lamer and dumber than anything I ever did as a kid! lol!

I was sweeping my kitchen floor and went to put the broom back in the space between the wall and the fridge. The broom handle hit one of my decorative plates hanging on the wall, the plate hit me on the head and I did a little juggling act so the plate wouldn't fall and break. Result? Two inch gash on my hairline, minor whiplash and a slight concussion.
I don't sweep much anymore. ;-D

I had just went outside to feed the dog.
I was closing the back door. Instead of putting my hand on the WOOD part I put my hand on the WINDOW part.
I hit it once, twice and the third time my hand went thru the glass window and downward my hand went.
I ended up cutting the tendons on my left hand. Middle finger, ring finger and pinkie.
OUCH OUCHY...... lol
30 stitches in the ER and 30 more in surgery!!!
Thankfully we had the BEST hand surgeon in the county working at our hospital!!! 6 weeks of recovery and therapy. He never thought I would be able to bend my fingers back as far as I can!!!

I have two.
When i was 11, there were these two railings in my hallway, i decided to swing back and forth on them with my arms stretched on on each of them hold onto them. well, i went forward a little too much and fell on MY NOSE and fractured it. for about 3 weeks my nose was swollen and all blue black and purple. OW.
my friend danny, i think he was 12 or 13 at the time, decided to play soccer with a BOWLING BALL he fractured his foot. and it wasnt accidental. he had crutches for a few weeks. i guess he wad bored...

One - I tried to closeline myself. We were playing chasy at night, I ran into the power line (on the farm they had wires supporting the end poles going down to the ground) and I ran into one at a full run, landed on my ****, with a burn across my neck.
Two - I jumped out of a home made flying fox without grabbing hold of the thingy. And fell flat out of the tree onto the ground. ouch

Walking along in the mall, talking to my sister, and just as I turned to look forward I kissed a cement column. Smack! My nose was broken, my lips swelled up, and I had to get stitches on my forehead. We still call it "The day Matt saw stars!" because I really did, just like in the cartoons.

i was at a new job i had just started about a day or two before and was using the bathroom sitting on the toilet, when i leaned to one side to wipe my butt the toilet leaned with me and caused me to fall on the floor and the toilet tipped over spilling out everything i just put in it along with the water it got me wet and i sprain my wrist trying to catch myself when i was falling.. i was told afterwords to be careful with that toilet because it wasn't bolted down. im just glad it was about lunch time so i could go home and shower,change clothes.
