A guy i used to work with got stopped by a policeman because he had a screwdriver sticking out of his head.
He had no idea he had been stabbed, it had ruptured his brain. An odd chap.

There was a guy on the news that had shot himself a dozen times with a nail gun and went in, complaining of a headache. Might have been a relative of the guy you work with, eh?

Okay, last year on TLC I saw 101 weirdest things removed from a human body. And the number 1 was this one guy who had a body in his stomach. He was a guy from a 3rd world country who as he got older his stomach kept getting bigger and he had pains. When the doctor checked on him and opened his stomach for surgery the doctor said, "When I reached in with my hand, I was touching another hand."
Apparently what happened was that the guy had a twin brother. But during the pregnancy stage one twin grew in the other twin instead of seperating. So the twin borther who was in the stomach developed, but never really lived. And when the other living twin grew older, the dead twin grew in his stomach.

Years ago a friend of mine was a male nurse in A and E department, when a young woman of approx 20 went in with a test tube shattered up her vagina! When asked how it happened he was told that she was doing a science experiment at home and she dropped the test tube, it bounced and went up her "bits". I would like to know why she was doing a science experiment with no knickers on and her legs wide open! This is a true story, not bull.

I was on the phone with my friend and she started screaming. I asked her what was wrong and she didn't know. Her foot was stuck on the carpet and she couldn't twist her body enough to look - and the pain was excruciating. I told her to call 911 (I lived too far away). Turned out one of her sons had left a BIG fishing hook on the carpet, which got stuck. The hook was completely in her foot and the paramedics had to cut the carpet and send her to the ER with the rug attached. I told her she was her son's biggest catch and laugh everytime we talk about this (she doesn't find it too funny)... matter of fact, she'll be here soon and I'm gonna make fun of her again, hehe.

A friend of mine sprained his ankle while having sex once . We were dating two sisters at the time and in the middle of doing whatever he was doing with his date he calls out to me for help claiming that he had sprained his ankle. When I stopped Iaughing I went over to his room to look at it and sure enough he had really sprained his ankle. I'm still not sure exactly how he did it but to this day whenever I see him I ask him how is ankle is

My old boss's daughter was messin about on the trampoline, fell over and hurt her neck so she sent her in to lie down and rest, a few hours later she wasn't feeling any better so they took her to A&E, doctor felt her neck but couldn't find anything wrong, told her to take pain killers and it would be better in the morning, she asked could they possibly do an xray on her daughter, doctor said he didn't think it was necessary but her mum persisted about 5 minutes after doing the xray the doctor came in and told them she had broken her neck, talk about medical negligence

Wow, poor guy.
I went on vacation in Mexico. Within hours of arriving, I fell over a bush, blowing out my knee. After a trip to a Mexican emergency room, I was trying to soak my swollen knee and leg in the warm waters off a sandbar.
I was on strong painkillers, so I couldn't feel it when a group of jelly fish swam by stinging me all over my legs.
My legs looked like they had been through a meat grinder.
The lifeguard almost passed out when he saw me getting out of the water.

the weirdest injury I've had, was whilst rewiring my 16ft trailer I'd been getting a 20ft length of seven core cable. I sort of whipped it out to get it lying down on the ground alongside the trailer and it came right back at me and whipped me right in the bell end. And boy did it bring tears to my eyes.

I read about a man who showed up at the ER with a vase in his rectum. They removed it and he showed up a week later with another vase up there. They removed it and tried to throw it away but he asked for it back because it was a "family heirloom". Crazy man!
