Hey Pandas, What's The Dumbest Way You've Gotten Injured?

Putting a pack of toilet paper in the bathroom in the dark and walking back in thirty seconds later and tripping over it

I was home alone on a cold night and I broke my nose on the mantle piece while putting coal in fire.

I literally stabbed myself with a safety pin the other day. A. Safety. Pin. I always stab myself with them. They just don't work on me.

Last year I tripped over nothing and twisted my ankle in an EMPTY room with all the furniture taken out for redecorating 🤣 also i picked up a cute shiny beetle once to move it out of the road and it bit a chunk out of my finger ☹️

I sneezed while doing yoga and ended up with a reasonably sized bruise on my forehead. I wasn't even that far from the ground, too.

Wet flip flops. Butt surfed around the house until daughter came home to get the crutches out of the garage. Sprained my ankle pretty good. This was not the first, or even the sixth time wet flip flops have tried to kill me. I can't even claim youthful ignorance. I'm a grandma. And sometimes, an idiot.

When I was a kid I got a concussion from running into a pole while playing a game

Slid down the banister the sharp part impaled my knee and I couldn't walk for three months+

Jumping down a staircase. Tore my ankle tendons.

I broke my arm falling off a metal ball.

I kneeled on a needle that went trough my pants and into my knee and it had a string attached

I fell asleep sitting at a hightop table in sports bet at a high profile Las Vegas casino. I'd been up 36 hours, 12 playing craps. Woke up at the hospital a few hours later with three staples in my head and a b*tch of a concussion.

I used to twist my back a lot to get out any tensions and loved the feels of the cracks. But then I got a shooting pain going from my lower back all the way down my leg, and my hip was killing me. It got so bad I need a couple rounds of physiotherapy. I've been okay since and haven't done the twisty thing as often.

Trying to break a length of wood by stamping on it in the middle, not realizing that there was a 2 inch nail sticking out.

Found out when it put it through my heel !

i was climbing on top of boxes behind a stage during a basketball game and sat on edge so i fell of which caused the heavy box to fall on my wrist now that i think of it i should of really followed the aduly who said "dont go behind the stage you might get hurt this happened like 6 weeks ago i am typing with a cast on

I ran into a pole. My glass smashed into the side of my face, just missing my eye. You could nearly see my skull. Memories.

I was standing on the step between our front porch & sidewalk taking a picture of a UFO because I didn’t know what it was (it was maybe an ultralight helicopter or something like that). I was focused on the sky and trying to get a good shot and forgot I was on the step & fell off of it severely spraining my ankle. It’s been 14 months and it still isn’t back to normal.

When I was younger, I was playing with some friends at a pavilion for a picnic. We were going up the steps in the back to go onto the stage, not running but walking fast & just being silly. The last step I hit the top of my foot against the step, my parents didn’t believe that I was seriously hurt, so I ended up walking on it for 2 weeks before going to the doctor. I fractured my first metatarsal then ended up getting a stress fracture on my 5th metatarsal because I was babying the 1st.

(Both happened on my left foot, in between the 2 accidents, I also had 2 surgeries on the same foot but nothing related to the accident)

I "borrowed" my cousin's motorcycle. I made it about 10-15 miles (I was going really fast), and then I crashed. My cousin failed to mention that it slips around on gravel. I ended up with little rocks stuck in my knee. On the way home, my cousin pointed out to me that I had the rocks stuck in my leg and that I was bleeding. I shrugged it off, and went home. My grandmother screamed when she saw, although it honestly didn't hurt too bad. I have a few scars from it, but it was fun anyways.

Why I was little, I tried to see how high I could kick my leg, I did it with such force, I feel backward and sprained my wrist. I was about seven.

I needed to change a light bulb on the porch and pulled a lawn chair over to stand on. But first I had to bounce on the chair to see if it would hold my weight. I bounced right off and hit a brick on the side of the porch and broke both bones in my right arm............have 3 screws in my arm and I was in my 50's !
