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'd forgotten about this
until I read NoStrings below at around age 10 I'd stolen some fireworks including some flare like ones about pencil size; lit one, dropped it, and it landed in my sandal, getting stuck in the hole in the leather above my big toe, where it continued to flare away burning away the 'pink stuff', I couldn't tell my parents for fear of a telling off for messing with fireworks, so hid the injury and boyly put up with it until it healed; over 40 yrs later I still have a circular scar on my toe.
