That is savage. But on the bright side, you could have a pretty unique signature thing - you know, the "comedy" ones people on here have - "cycled into and impaled myself on ___ posts".

Nasty mate, glad you survived to tell the tale! I always think it's amazing how close some of these injuries get and wonder if your natural instinct is to avoid it injuring something really important...

I saw someone stack really badly a couple of months ago and without even realising he automatically tucked his head under to stop it hitting the ground.

Yeoow, that's gotta hurt. I particularly like the dangling stuff coming out of the hole.
Did you get a torch and have a look in there?

Sharker69 · June 2007

Hi guys,

Thanks for all your well wishing and encouragement feeling painful today, got about 2 hours sleep last night as the bruising is coming up a treat !! I've emailed the said photo to MBR, MBUK and WhatMB see what happens, maybe some nice safety pads ha ha!!
Fozzybear, it's a good excuse now ,maybe the girlfriend could start the re-tiling ha ha!!! But yes will have to meet up in the Wyre sometime soon!!
Pieman, I wish I did have a proper look with torch etc ha ha, but the girlfriend bundled me off to hospital straight after that photo was taken.

Sharker69 · June 2007

Hi naz-t [:)]

Yeah drugs are fully stocked up ha ha.
I don't think ill be going down the armour route,
just to take it real steady for a while!!
The annoying thing is my girlfriend has just changed
jobs to selling accident cover,and I haven't got round
to take it yet!
Gutted!!
Maybe now is the time, before something else happens

Woah! If you'd looked in REALLY close, you would maybe've even saw your own heart beating. Radical dude! (Do people still say radical?)

No people now say awesome

Nice 'graze'

Widdle · June 2007

Looks like your armpit has got a mouth, you should have stuck a cigar in there and taken a photo!

Sharker69 · June 2007

Nice thought but think I could have done with a cigar to calm the nerves!! [:)]
