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?

Bang
This isn’t the most painful thing I’ve done, but comes way ahead if you to the maths (pain x stupidity).
I was in Finsbury park tube station, standing up one end of the platform, the end where the train first emerges from the tunnel, the end where it’s still going fucking quickly, that’s where I was.
Standing with my feet near the edge of the platform in a bit of a dream world, I looked down and noticed a loose shoe lace. I started to crouch down and lean forward to do it up..... I woke up strapped in a stretcher being carried up the spiral staircase.
I’d tried to stop the tube train with my head.

QOTW: So fucking hard they can nut oncoming tube trains and get away it.

I've actually seen someone do this, AB.
it's quite amusing.
I think if this was a proper QOTW fail it would have been the train on a stretcher, though.

I had a similar misfortune at a bus stop once
When a bus swerved in a bit too close and I got whacked around the head by it's wing mirror.
I didn't require any hospital treatment and within a few seconds the pain had subsided, but the embarrassment of having to board the bus in question afterwards and having every passenger staring and sniggering at me made up for that.

No, it definitely stayed on
it was a similar amount of pain and damage as when I got caught in the forehead by a cricket ball.
