Ouch!
A friend was once given a biopsy by a sleep-deprived junior doctor.
They needed a sample of his colon, so inserted the long bendy jaws-on-the-end thingy, located the suspect area and... he shot through the ceiling. Doctor had forgotten to administer any anaesthetic.
What was your ouchiest moment?

I have lots
Broke my arm, the radius and ulna both snapped in the same place, leaving my arm a U shape. I knew it was gonna break so I relaxed. Doing that kept the bones from popping out but created a lot more pain as the muscles in my forearm were all torn. Setting the bones was easy for the doctor, but the muscles took forever to heal.

Karate arm...
A local karate instructor broke his arm when he was a teenager and still living in Japan. He never had it set properly and ended up with a permanently curved forearm. Apparently this has left him with incredible punching power in that arm.

I fractured my radius and ulna, and I didn't know it was coming.
Which is probably why I fractured them. Bloody hurts it does.
Luckily for me I didn't pop my bones out either.
