Stupid accidents

[jall55]

Well i am spending more time on here - commenting and reading than usual because i am normally so busy with 2 businesses and a shoot to run.
The shoot takes my time up actually.

Why - because i had a stupid accident while looking for lost birds !

I stood on a tree stump hidden in bramble - that had not been felled level. The hinge essentially went up my shin and filleted me !

What daft accidents have you had ?

Ouch! Not me but a friend went for a quiet family walk in the woods, fell awkwardly and broke his leg! From my time working in the woods..I tripped carrying an uncovered chainsaw (off) and badly cut my arm, close but not serious.
If I left a stump high I got boll locked. Stumps on an extraction route had to be sloped so as not to catch timber being dragged out.

Tripped down some stairs on the 28th May this years. I was sober.

Suffered traumatic subdural hematoma.

Lucky to be here.

I was replacing the steel on my flat bed pick up this February I had a sheet of steel on the bed that was wider than the bed as I bent down to mark the underside so I could cut it off I caught the sheet In a loop on my work trousers bending it down then as I moved it spang back up firing a self tapping screw into my left eye, four operations later it's still knackered.

11 years ago, out at hinds, to avoid wading through a burn, went across a wooden bridge. Slipped as I went across, landed on my rifle and put 2 fractures in my hip socket. Still hurts.....

Im always in too much of a rush with things i think

2 weeks ago i jumped off the digger - catching my shirt of the automatic cut off lever - fortunately it was only a primark purchase or something because i managed to rip myself free - if had been a quality item i dare say i will still be suspended from it now !!

Cutting a heavy sheet of steel with oxy acetelyne . Went to step back then realised the plate was on top of my steel toe cap. Had to be rescued by a mate with a crowbar after he stopped laughing

Was cutting a 90mm PVC pipe with a woodsaw many years ago. The saw jumped out and the forward stroke took it neatly lengthwise down my left index finger. Champion scar to remind me.

Was it this?

Man ‘goes to A&E with WW2 shell stuck in bottom’

The bomb squad raced to a hospital A&E allegedly because a man had a WW2 anti-tank shell stuck in his rectum.

Very common injury. Most of my trade mates have the same scar

Some of us young ones ( a long time ago) made a gocart out of a the back axle from a trike.
The axle still had the drive sprocket on… you can probably guess whats next
Long story short ..my leg got drawn into the bit between the go cart and the sprocket bringing us to a skidding halt…reversed up to release my now rather chewed calf muscle …looked like a .308 exit wound.
What a mess

When I was a teenager I was out sunbathing in the family yard and my mother jumped into the van to go into town. She never seen me and drove straight at me. The wheel caught my hip bone and pushed me along the concrete. I was lucky it didn't go over me. The concrete ripped the skin of both cheeks of my arse but besides that I was OK.
