My left eye is slightly more closed than my right...
I was swimming with my friends at one of their complex's, all but 1 of us went outside of the pool area.
When we tried getting back in we forgot the key and our friend inside wouldn't answer when we yelled so we decided to just hop the fence.
It was basically a brick wall with a metal gate/door in the middle.
So I went up to the corner where it would be easiest (I was behind the others) and yanked on the corner to test the sturdiness.
When I approved, I pulled myself up.
Instantly the brick came loose and smacked the corner of my eye, totally split.
So I'm standing there, wobbling, dizzy and lightheaded pouring blood on my feet and the floor for like a minute before they turn around and see.
So we iced it, kept a towel on it, then kept swimming, haha.

I was at boot camp 2 summers ago, and while doing night ops (I was pointman, scouted ahead about 10 yds) the enemy came running at us so I told my group to scatter and hide.
I ran and flipped into some brush on the side of the road not knowing that there was a log hidden there.
So upon landing with my full body weight on my right elbow on the log, I fractured it in 7 places.
As well as got a concussion from slamming my head into the ground.
One of the "bad guys" came up to me yelling and shoving a gun in my face to get up but I couldn't really hear or register anything, my head was spinning.
So after finally getting up I kept going ignoring the pain from my limp arm, haha, and ended up getting shot on the calf an hour later; then jumped into a forked tree... sideways.
I scared the craps out of the DI coming at me, but I was wedged in a tree...
Coming back for the 2nd week I got a throat infection and became dehydrated (dehy. first day too) and couldn't eat anything.
So I had pills for my arm, still a headache, a major bruise on the leg, hips, sides, everywhere... and Kept forgetting how many pills I took and went nuts, haha.
I was a total laugh, I rolled down a hill and tore down 4 tents on the way.

No, not sadly, it's what makes us extra special haha.Hmm well mine isn't as awesome as everyone elses but what can you do? When i was twelve my best friend and i were in this abandoned house in her neighborhood and the floors were so old that i fell through them. Luckily the nails didnt hit the bone, but it was pretty close. Now i have a scar from the top of my right ankle past my knee. I had to get stitches and couldn't bend my knee for several weeks. Sadly this is only one of my many injury stories.
'Cause really, how often can you say that you were running with your pants not all the way up and still under your heels with shoes, belt, glasses, makeup, and a baseball glove in your hand and slammed into your friend's fender when trying to slide over the hood for time?
...Not that often I'm guessing.
On top of that, I dented it and dislocated my pinky while playing softball and cut my friend and jammed her finger.
We klutzes win, haha.

Besides, at some point you have to learn to laugh at yourself or you'll spend your life crying over nothing. And thats a long time to spend doing nothing.

Sounds like a great quote, haha.
The more I laugh when I get hurt, the more it actually hurts, it's about the only way you can tell.
Last summer I was sitting on an empty square shaped ice chest that specifically said "do not sit on" while arguing w/my friend on the phone...
Ironically, as soon as she said "you need a f****ng hobby" out of nowhere the ice chest just went flying forward out from under me and I hit my back on the stucco wall; it tore my skin through my shirt.
My sister just laughed her ass off, (she happened to walk by as it happened) when we looked outside after, haha, my skin was on the wall...
My mum slapped me for laughing instead of being worried, it looked like a claw mark and I still proudly bear the scar; haha, I had to wear a bikini top basically the rest of the summer.
Needless to say, my friend and I don't argue anymore.

I was sitting perfectly on it! no angles or anything!
Yeah, hahaha, It cracks me up to begin with that we laugh more when we get hurt and it's how you tell; apparently so do other people. they always think something's wrong with me.
Haha, weird is good, i'm always proud to laugh at myself.
So from what I can tell, you've screwed up your knees-legs pretty good, what else? what other parts?
