It was I was 16 I was on my high school gymnastics team. I was practicing a simple straddle vault. We were working on a wooden floor, the standard way it was done then. It was a new vault, so the teacher would stand in front of the vaulting horse, hit my stomach with both her hands to stop me after I straddled the horse. Then she would jump out of the way, and allow me to land on the floor. I was supposed to do it this way until she felt I would do it on my own. She said she would not stop me when she thought I could do it, without warning.
When she decided I was good enough at the vault, she didn't stop me. Unfortunately, I wasn't good enough, yet. I landed with my ankle, knee, and hips all at wrong directions from where they were supposed to be.
My knee swelled up to larger than my thigh. I had ruptured all the cartilage and tendons in my knee. It took 3 years to heal.

The Worst Injury Of The Year
Marquis Daniels takes an early lead…
by Lang Whitaker
This is going to be a new running feature, where we periodically examine some of the more horrible injuries that occur during the NBA season. And already, before training camp has even tipped off, we have an early candidate for The Worst Injury Of The Year.
New Indiana Pacers acquisition Marquis Daniels may miss the start of training camp. Why? According to the Indy Star…
Daniels is dealing with occasional problems following a procedure to remove a toenail on his left big toe.
“Doctors decided to remove the toenail permanently,” Carlisle said. “It’s a healing process that’s taken time.”
I brought this up in a SLAM meeting earlier and nearly made everyone sick. How painful must that be? As Khalid wondered, what happens next? Does skin grow there? Does the skin grow in hard or grow in soft?
And if you really want to be sick, just go here.

I was cut down from behind by Billy Bremner while playing for Falkirk High School in the Scottish Schools Cup. Even though he was only 16 at the time, it was a 'professional' foul which permanently damaged my left knee and curtailed my career as an international runner. I saw him repeat the process for Leeds United.
