Blood
Like a scene from The Exorcist, I once spewed a stomach-full of blood all over a charming nurse as I came round after a major dental operation. Tell us your tales of red, red horror.

American Pie
As (some of you) are aware my background as well as having academia has a bit of t'Army in it.
Whilst away in a warm country nearly 20 years ago now (and by GOD does that make me feel old) I was sitting out catching some rays with a carpenter working behind me using a band-saw.
A radio was playing American Pie by Don Maclean and I can recall it as if it were yesterday, said carpenter singing along to the tune.
"Bye, bye Miss Americ-aaaaaaargh"
He'd cut off his thumb and forefinger pushing them through the band-saw.
Blood *everywhere*. I don't recall much about it other than grabbing a bandage and wrapping it around what remained of that part of his hand before heading into the building.
Poor guy.
