when my old boy did a tendon i used to cold laser treatment it 3 times a day. I was in my usual spot, sat on a milk crate just behind his front leg lasering away. When bosch from out of no where came a back foot, kicking me on the thigh and knocking me clean off my perch

I think it was a fly bothering him. He looked at me as if to say "mum, what the hell are you doing down there"
I had a mahoosive hoof print bruise on my leg for ages. I can only describe it as an olympic standard dead leg

Fairly recently, I was leaving work having gone in for a couple of hours one evening - there's a shutter door so you log out and the door raises itself. However it takes aaages to get to head height, so naturally one stops it on its way up at about chest height, presses the down button to close it behind you and duck under the door.

Got it stopped a bit low, ducked under, and as I went under the sole of one of my shoes parted company at the front, flipped under the shoe stopping my foot as it ripped off on the concrete, so I fell flat on my face, landing with all my weight on my glasses over my right eye. Glasses were not damaged other than a tiny bit of paint off the (bendy titanium but so worth the money) frame, but I had a complete glasses shaped line cut into my face, with a little line off where the arm went, and of course blood everywhere, which caused much discussion amongst the other tennants of the buildin next day!

By morning however you could barely see the scab as it was a neat clean cut, exactly hidden by my glasses frame and amazingly although feeling bruised there was no colouration so I didn't own up and was praying they wouldn't look on the security CCTV to see how the blood got there!
 
Yonks ago there was a report in one of the quality broadsheets of a man who was out walking his dog. He was attacked by a swarm of bees so he leapt into the river to save himself. He was promptly bitten on the leg by a pike!

Got out of the bath, flicked my hair forward to put towel round it and headbutted the sink - knocked myself out - cracked my mum's sink!

Boyfriend on nights and came home in middle of the night early, he walked in the bedroom, I flew out of bed backwards and cracked my head on the radiator!

My Dad, cut his finger open with a plastic knife cutting a bread bun open on a plane ha ha ha ha

My Dad was using a blow torch thingy to get the paint off the fascias of the house. He went straight across with the blow torch over the hand he was using to lean on! Nearly fell from the ladders

Oh lordy I have loads..... too many to tell!

My many stupid injuries have been catalogued before, including nearly putting my eye out on a Christmas tree, burning my hand on a hob on purpose, giving myself whiplash by demonstrating what whiplash looks like and many bruised tailbones (falling over in the kitchen for no reason whatsoever, falling off a horse over a jump not even a foot high)

However I have two good recent ones.

1. I got the end of my little finger stuck in the link of my dog's flat-link choke chain while I was trying to take it off a few weeks ago. One of the cats walked past the run as I was doing and he twisted his whole head and body around and my finger went backwards. It is probably broken, there has been no feeling in the tip since and it is a bit bent

2. I got a massive bruise on my head in a taxi because I tried to look out of a rolled up window

I am currently sporting a black eye and a bruised and cut nose because OH hit me with a length of 2 x 4 as we were putting up fencing this afternoon (I bent down just as he stood up, comical really - in hindsight)
Happened just seconds before people turned up to see a horse, so there was I with blood all over my face to greet them.

Sold the horse though.

As a kid, I remember 2 incidents vividly. Both riding the same pony actually (my very first pony who I still have). Somehow he ended up chucking me off onto a barbed wire fence... that hurt. I ended up getting numerous stitches at A & E and still have big scars all over my back! Other time was just so damn sore even though there was no actual blood or breakage, just a MASSIVE brightly coloured bruise - I thought it would be fun to get on pony bareback with only a headcollar, he spooked and galloped off - I went straight off the back and landed right on a fence post upside down (ie. lying there with my leg up the fence post so the back of my thigh was raw). Could have been worse, but I remember lying there for 10 mins in pain!
 
This thread is going to cause me a silly injury in a minute - I am at my desk trying to laugh really quietly with tears pouring down my face smudging my mascara - I think people around me think I'm crying as my shoulders are shaking so much but no-ones come over to ask yet!

My own silly injuries include splitting my head open on a flowerpot - I was three and tripped over :-(

and my old loan horse jumping on my foot and breaking my little toe - i then had 3/4 mile walk home and yes it was very painful.
 
I slipped down the slope that leads from my stable into the barn...whilst carrying a bucket of water......2 fractured ribs and a soaking ensued.....

....plus this weekend I picked up horses LW rug to shake off some hairs ( I had been clipping) and the leg strap flew up in the air and the clip twatted me on the forehead......good job I have a bit of a fringe to hide the blue egg that appeared almost instantly....
