I'm always very careful, but even more when I'm drunk
Therefore, I have no wounds.

My brother, however, isn't. He's got multiple scars and he's been close to die a couple of times.

The last wound he got is still healing. He stepped on something on the street and, to avoid falling, hold a lamp post near him. Now, the lampost had a plastic paper bin attached to it. Attached with a very sharp metal ring, which cut his arm from elbow to little finger, all the way to the bone.

He's quite lucky, as he didn't cut any mayor arteries or nerves. He's lost a bit of mobility in his thumb, but, after 5 months of sick leave (civil servants!), very long time at the hospital and a lot of pain, he's now back to work.

Ouch.
Have you ever seen anyone open a beer bottle with a lighter? A friend tried to do it with a small bottle of nail varnish which shattered and gashed his hand open. Straight to A and E for six stitches. He'd only just arrived at the party and had only had one drink!

Haha!
We never think of Mediterranean folk getting rat-arsed. You're supposed to be sensible drinkers.

We usually are
My brother isn't though. I've got a lot more stories of him being drunk and clumsy at the same time.

Once he was having sex with a girl he'd just met in a car park, when all of a sudden, she starts shouting and saying he's got to go because her boyfriend is coming to pick her up, and the bf is crazy and would kill him.

So my brother starts running and, as it's dark and he's drunk, he doesn't see a chain going from side to side of the car park to stop cars going in or out at night (University car park).

He runs to it, falls and hits his head so strong he passes out. When he wakes up, he's lost mobility and all he can do is barely shout for help, but nobody does it because it's dark and they think he's a tramp, covered in vomit and blood (nice)

He finally managed to reach for his mobile and called a friend who quickly got there and helped him to the hospital.

You'd think he'd learn, eh?
