What is the dumbest way you’ve been injured?

Closest I came was when I accidentally walked through broken glass barefoot.I didn't even realise,just felt my feet breaking the glass and heard the crunching.My friend told me I had just walked through broken glass.I brushed off the soles of my feet and kept on walking.My feet are super tough and strong with soles like thick hard leather.So no injury at all.

Well about a year ago I was climbing down rock path to nude beach following my husband lol and I lost my footing on a loose rock twisted my ankle made it down barely and then another three miles to spot but couldn't make it when leaving so he had to carry me
on his back and all our stuff back to regular beach area and barely got dressed before lifeguards came to take me to ambulance at parking lot

@Tahitiangrandma that’s awful and hilarious 🤣 sorry for laughing at your pain tho
Tahitiangrandma · 61-69, F
@Bunnydisaster77 oh it's fine hun I laugh now at the time my husband who I love was laughing also 🤣 but holding it back and I couldn't even get mad because I was butt naked laying down on the ground wearing only sneakers it was a mess

I have a scar on my left thumb from when I sliced it open trying to cut a chocolate chip in half with a butter knife.

No, I don't know why I thought that was a good idea.

The ex and I had been in a small bar in a gorgeous old Brownstone in Boston. It was his birthday, and we were out for a night on the town. I can't even describe the ceiling in this place...it was painted with cherubs and gold, and it was an amazing French Renaissance reproduction. There were marble floors, and the stairs were white marble leading up from the street.

We were walking out, and the ex pointed up JUST as I was stepping onto the marble stairs leading to the street, and he said, "Look!" And like an idiot I looked and kept walking...onto open air above the stairs.

I fell and broke my elbow. I had not yet learned that the ex was absolutely not my good pal.

oh ... not so long ago, I was trying to put a cartridge into my favourite fountain pen.. and the cartridges were cheapo rubbish and so they didn't pierce like they should.. so I had the bright idea of finding something really sharp and pointed to manually pierce the end of the cartridge.

I did think while doing this.. oh, it would be a really bad thing if the really sharp pointed knife were to slip.. .

And then it did! It went right into my thumb because it was very sharp and I was applying a lot of pressure. Half the depth of my thumb.. it wasn't pretty!

Ran headfirst into a glass door trying to get indoors before it closed. And it was right below a security camera, too.
Bunnydisaster77 · 26-30, F
@SW-User well you probably made a security guards night then haha

@Bunnydisaster77 I wouldn't be surprised if I ended up on America's Funniest Home Videos or something. My 15 minutes of fame.

Broke my hand punching a steel door after getting laid off. Not as fun as a random injury story but definitely dumb as hell - I knew the outcome before I swung.
Rollerblading pretty fast backwards on an uneven sidewalk. Your humerus is not so funny when broken.
Bunnydisaster77 · 26-30, F
@CereBellum indeed it is not x.x
I was roller skating backwards, swinging my arms I guess, and got my thumb stuck in a vent on the wall, broke my wrist.

Tazering myself in the leg because I was testing it out of curiousity.

Turning over in bed. I pulled my back out.
