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?

Tyred OutI was having new tyres put on my car, when there was an enormous bang - the tyre had exploded while being inflated. The unfortunate mechanic was writhing in agony, hand clutched to his ear - the concussion had ruptured his eardrum. As they led him off towards the local A&E, one of his colleagues uttered the immortal line, "That's the second time that's happened to him in a fortnight..."

*sighalways, ALWAYS make sure the tyre is seated properly.
Usually once is enough to train mechanics never to do this again. I get very cross with mine if it happens anyway!
