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?

Knee pain and thumbtacks
As a projectionist you kneel alot (honk honk) and usually on one knee depending on which way the projector faces in my case my right knee. This is great apart from when you are a bit over weight and you crush the cartilage in your knee and it pops out of place. It started as a nagging ache and over a couple of hours finished as possibly the worst pain I've have experienced. You can have you leg straight you can bend you leg but christ help you in doing it. Some lovely painkillers and two week's off work and the pain went away to come back in cold weather. Also accidentally pushed a thumb tack in the joint of my thumb I heard it squeak as it touched the bone pulled it out vomited and fainted.
