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 feel you (figuratively) buddy
A childhood accident pretty much achieved the same thing for me although due to the degree of twist, I needed some metal to make it stick back together again. I suspect I went into shock as I don't remember much pain, just my foot pointing in the wrong direction. My recovery was quick (less cast time) but the flipside for me is that it has never been perfect. I feel it "slot" together when I stand up on cold mornings and I'm just shaking off another bout of tendinitis caused by me rolling the front joints of the foot by way of compensation. Kind of the gift that keeps on giving if you will.
