i was refing this soccer game yesturday and one of the players slipped and broke his arm. his forearm was bent up about 3 inches (but there was no bone showing) . i heard that he has to get a metal plate put into his arm. he said that he just tripped acidently. that is the worst scratch from a accidental trip that i have ever seen.

the same thing happened while i was playing basketball, some kid fell and both of the bones in his arm broke, and the bone was sticking up pushing the skin up. It was pretty nasty, but good thing tthe bone wasnt sticking out

thats nothin.. last year during high school soccer practice, one of the senioers nailed some freshman, totally broke is collar bone and it was just popping out.. the kid wasnt even crying, he jsut stood up with his arm still and look around.

yeah, well at westlake highschool during gym last year, some kids were moving a goal, and it tipped over, hit a kid in the back of the head and killed him instantly. it was his first day there too becasue he just moved here, pretty wierd.

now that i think about it, it just goes to show how paintball related injuries get blown way out of proportion, here's an equally freaky accident, yet it got basicly no news coverage, wher as someone dies near a paintball gun and its all over the news for weeks

oh, and what school do you play for in your in highschool, im at thomas stone

My idiot brother tried to jump a fence when he was drunk, but what he didnt realize was that the gate was unhinged. So when he tried to jump it the gate swung open and he fell back and broke his arm. His upper arm bone broke through the skin just above his elbow. The doctor said it was the worst break he had ever seen. So yea... just thought i would share since we are talking about broke bones.

my friend climbed like a 60 foot high tree and ate a damn sandwhich way up there.(it was lunch time) sure enough, on his way down about 30 feet from the ground, he fell and just so happened to land in a pile of leaves, but still broke his arm. It was really gross looking cause his forearm bone was hanging out of his skin and he was playing with it then suddenly fainted. So I ran to get his mom but she didn't like the sight of blood too, so she ALSO fainted. Then he dumb dog came over and started licking the bone, so I had to get the dog in the house, than call 911. No joke, this is a true story, and I hope something like that never happens again to me. But the dog licking his arm thing was kinda funny, but gross at the same time

My goalie on my soccer team went out for a ball and slid and hit the other kid in the leg and broke his leg.

I broke my leg biking and sledding, both in grade one. Biking was a spiral fracture so my leg was all twisted up with my foot pointing the wrong way. I also broke my wrist and collar bone on my bike going 70 km/h down a hill.

I've seen some pretty interesting ones at work though when i gotta walk through the E.R.

20 years nothing broken ALOT wrong with me, but oh well, have seen alot of plates and such in people.

You should go to a motorcycle accident sometime. You would never think that there can be so much wrong with a person. Arms, Legs, ribs, pelvis... You pick them up on a longboard and they just feel like jelly all over. Plus when you move the broken part (somtimes you have to straighten them out in order to preserve circulation) you get this lovely rice-crispy sound of bone ends grating on each other.

God I love my job!

^^^^^ Aplying traction baby. I had a student one time that had 2 bad knees, and it was on an evasion exercise and the dude was sitting down with his ruck on (indian style) and we went to stand up and majorly dislocated both knees. I had to strip his boots in -10 weather and check for his capillary response for over on hour before we could vector in the chopper, he had minor frostnip all over his toes, but I had to do it, and that was on my first solo trip

***MedicDVG*** · May 18th, 01:35 PM

Dislocated knees hurt! I know - thats what got me out of the Army -- got hit by a truck. I passed out looking at my legs bending the wrong way. No chopper ride for me though. Bummer that.

**W1ldK@t** · May 18th, 01:56 PM

Yeah, I talked to my flight leader on my PRC90 and he was freaking out because he knew it was my first trip, and we were almost 5 klicks away from the CP, and WAYYY off a road. That is why we got to mobilize the chopper, plus our GPS relays were down so I had to vector him in by sound. Is was sickness though, just like what we trained for

I was so pumped after that. I had to triangulate using a civillan map and everything, it all went wrong.....

**spke03** · May 18th, 04:44 PM

this kid on my soccer team was playing soccer o about a year ago against kids 2-3 years older than him, a kid totally ran him over, he broke his leg and his collar bone, so he was 12 and they were 14 -15, he was in casts and a wheelchair the whole summer and got out in late august, this happened in spring

**jacobeid** · May 18th, 05:12 PM
