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?

where to start, really...1) Got kicked off a climbing frame as a kid (eight foot up with lovely safe tarmac under it - got to love that state primary school!). Face first onto the bolt-plate holding it to the ground. Six teeth smashed out and hanging out by the nerve endings, concussion, cracked jaw, bone lost from my chin, blood everywhere....oh, and five years of orthodontistry to repair the damage.
2) dislocated kneecap, torn ligaments and about three years of on-off physio after a nice rugby incident (I could bend my knee forward at that point).
3) put my clavicle bone through the cup of my shoulder whilst snowboarding. Healed it well enough, then got thrown over the handlebars of my mountain bike and hit a tree. Same again, so can now no longer swing a golf club (injury plus having to sell £1000 of clubs for £250).
4) hit the top of a doorframe with my head at full run. Whiplash, split head open and permanent scars on my head - the blood went about 30 foot down the corridor as my head snapped forwards.
5) Sliced a lump off of my thumb when a scalpel blade broke when making a model kit - I was about 8 at the time and I can still see the divot of missing flesh...
It's amazing I am still here, really!

It is indeed!If only you had been able to bend both knees forwards, you would have impressed and amazed your peers by being able to run like an ostrich.
