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?

Ah, a fellow collector of carbon!
I've got a piece of coal in my hand from when I was 8, still visible. I also managed to get a hefty shard of rock deep into my hand (the instructions were: "Don't hit these rocks").
I realised it has an especially high magnetite content, but not until after it had healed over. Now I can hang NIB magnets off it for a great pary trick. Recently got a piece of glass in a finger too, now I'm a walking rock collection.
