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?

falling on my tail bone/arseThis doesn't sound that painful but it did hurt like a bugger for a while
I was at the gym doing an muscle toning class and one of the exercises involved a large exercise ball. All that was involved in said exercise was to do sit-ups on the ball. Of course, when your beginning to get hot and sweaty, and the floor is not that clean, things become rather slippery. The end result, the slightly over inflated ball decided that it would slip out from underneath me. I tried to stop myself from falling but was spectacularly unsuccessful. Basically, I fell on somewhere between my arse and tailbone. Now this wouldn't hurt so much normally, but I also have a slightly dodgy back. The ice pack I was given to numb the pain was very welcome and gladly accepted.
For the next couple of weeks, it was a somewhat painful experience to walk up and down stairs and bend over and occasionally to use the toilet. It still took a couple of months to fully recover from it though. I don't recommend falling on the arse
