Well i have this friend and were in Quebec skiing on a trip for school. He was starting off on the bunny hills on a snowboard. He was doing fine and then he falls and breaks both arms because he falls kinda awkwardly. Ends up with both arms in slings for the next month. Like how the fuck do you do that. Break both arms on a bunny hill. They have skiers going like 100ft in the air know for those long distance jumps or in the Olympics where its freestyle skiing and they rarely get injured. Just thought you guys like that/ and i was just wondering if anyone else has a similar story of someone getting injured in a really stupid way.SRSLY 2 BROKEN ARMS on a BUNNY HILL

I didn't really get too hurt but ok.  So I was skiing with my cousin through the trees right by a lift, and I go between two trees (deep pow) and just come to a dead stop instantly. well there was a branch under the pow that stuck into my thigh and it hurt like a biatch.  i was lucky as hell I didn't get too injured though, my cousin was literally liek 10 feet behind me and jumped over me, over my head by about two inches and whiped out like five feet farther. coulda been really bad though

i broke my scaphoid messing around on scooter, i was in a cast for 12 weeks, i still biked and skied in a cast though, holding a bike handle in a scaphoid cast is the most awkward thing ever

Haha. I did that like 3 times today. Not just downhill though, probably About 1 out of every 50 times i stop, I just lose all balance and do the worlds slowest tip over. Then I look like a gaper but it's all good.

My stupidest injury was when I was standing up on a rocking chair when I was four, fell off and broke my wrist.

Numerous times skiing in the trees doing little airs, I hit flat spots and smacked my face into the ground. Only one concussion, and I wear a helmet now.

Worst was probably last spring at whistler, coming down from the peak I notice some freshies where its roped off, I see another guy go under the rope and ski down fine. There is sign saying caution cornice debris, but its flat light and everything looks white. So i was cruising until i put my right ski straight into a chunk of cornice and my knee turns around almost backwards from impact. I lay there for 5 minutes, cause it fucking hurt and I thought I had torn something for sure. Stand up and skied away fine. My knee has been bothering me since though, and I am going to get it checked out soon.

dude what the fuck, did a boulder drop from the sky and land on her lower body or something?


oh my stupidest way ive ever gotten hurt (not skiing) was when i was camping and running around with this branch in my hand and i tripped and the branch went into my stomach a bit. i basically got stabbed, it sucked.

while skiing i tried to hit a quarter pipe for my first time and i got to the top, didnt do anything, fell straight backwards onto my back and my head and ragdolled the rest of the way down, it hurt like a bitch.

bowflex incedent would suck and be really embarising because you would have to admitte you payed money for one.

and one time my cousin when he was a kid in newfounland his dad bought him a bow and arrow and he was trying to shot dragon flys with it and one landed on a basketball he shot it the arrow bounced off the ball and hit him right inbetween the eye and the cheke bone so he passed out and rolled down the hill and under the neibores deck they found preety quikley he was lucky he didint lose an eye

I re-tore my acl like three months after surgery because i stepped to the side on the stairs to avoid an outward opening door. Unfortunately the steps ended like six inches from where I put my foot down. Four foot fall onto my new acl, landing in jagged rocks. Shitty.

This has happened to everyone i know, including myself, where you are just on some small stupid rail and you fall off and land right on your hip or something and it hurts like the rest of the day because it was like pure ice where you landed. You just look back and say wtfcopter how did that hurt so bad when i can fall on like a 50ft jump and it wont hurt 1/2 as bad.

I jumped off a deck playing capture the flag. Broke my left ankle right on the ball and missed my entire ski season including my trip to snowmass. Sucked hardcore.

Three seasons ago I was skiing switch down a cat-track to the bunny hill and then to the base. I was looking back, making some okay turns (I was learning) and I thought someone called my name behind me. I looked back, and at that exact moment, I caught an edge. Fell with all my weight on my thumb somehow, and managed to push it all the way back to the wrist. And I'm not very flexible. Worst part was having to ski without poles for two weeks, as it was before the whole 'no poles' shit was cool.

Baha, yesterday I was sliding a 6ft pvc pipe in my backyard 'cause I'm desperate. I got kind of lazy one of the times and my front edge got caught right in the plastic and I went over the handlebars and just fell straight on my wrist.  Felt like such an idiot!

i was throwing a ball at my friend and jammed my thumb on the floor really hard.  i started rolling around in pain/ shock and he just laughed cause i had faked an injury like 5 minutes before.  i finally convinced him i was serious and we stopped playing.  the next day we went to the hospital and i found out i shattered my thumb, completly demolished the growth plate, and factured my hand.  i had a cast up to my elbow for a month.  and the day after i got my cast i went out skating and my board shot up and ripped off my fingernail on my thumb.  yay!  bloody cast for a month!
