Fractured nose.
That's about it.

Got a greenstick fracture in my right arm near my wrist. Twice. Once when I jumped off a swingset when I was 4, and again when I was 12 and I slipped on some leaves. Shockingly, my wrist still works fine.

I also broke off a sizable portion of my upper front-left tooth when my sister threw an alarm clock at my face.

I broke my wrist while I was sword fighting on an icy log ~6 feet in the air. Attempted to climb down and slipped, landing on my hand. I probably would've broken the other one had I not been using a shield at the time. The shield was mauled though.

I also broke my toe once from stubbing it on my shoe and another time from attempting to roundhouse kick a Christmas card off of a chair. My aim was lower and I hit the chair.

I also chipped my tooth after falling off my razor scooter.

Why OP needs to know?never

No
But I've passed a kidney stone
Which is supposed to feel like breaking your spine and hips 24/7
So I got that going for me

I've broken 2 fingers playing football, I've broken a rib, I've had a piece of metal cut through my knee, And I've had a nail go right through my big toe.

Broken ankle, broken forearm, broken thumb twice, broken ribs, torn ligaments in the thumb, torn ACL twice, torn MCL once. Tears are a LOT worse. Especially in the knee.

Fractured my elbow and got surgery to place pins to set it, and got them pulled out when I was awake. Also took about 2 months to completely heal I think, it was awhile ago.

Broke my left ring finger at the joint.

Broke both of my wrists at the same time once, and my hand on another occasion :|

Never broke anything, closest I've gotten was a heavy ~200 pound tv sitting on my fingers on the corner of a stair, then it being slightly dragged before being lifted off. Hurt like hell and I was certain my fingers were broken because of the scraping sound made when the tv was dragged. (This was when we were moving.) Pretty much made me useless in helping move from then on.

how the forget does that even happen?


It was hurting for about a week before the injury so doctors think it was weakened. Falling and hitting the ground gave it the last bit of force it needed to break.

Same thing happened to my poor little cousin. We found that cancer had weakened the bones in his legs after they broke when he jumped off the couch.

Not saying it could be cancer heaven forbid.

Surprisingly despite there being 3 of us, aged 17-23, neither my brothers nor myself have ever broken a bone.
We've had lots of cuts though.

My younger brother did nearly break his nose though, when me and my older brother made him fall, and he fell face-first onto a hard wooden floor.
Doctors said it wasn't broken, but it did change the shape of his nose somewhat.

And also my younger brother nearly broke his little toe when he ran past and stubbed his toe on the bottom of a wooden bunkbed.


That's it though, bar my older brother breaking someone elses arm in a game of rugby.

I probably came close to breaking my nose once. So, you know those A frame swing sets? We had one of those without any swings in our backyard, so I took a flowerpot full of dirt and tied a jump rope around the pot, and swung the rope over the swing set and I layed down, suspending the flowerpot above my face with a jump rope. So, I bet you can guess what happened next. Yup, the flower pot fell right onto my nose. Ouch.
