My worst mountain biking injury was because I looked down at my back tire and pulled the SHIT out of a muscle in my upper back.
And I used to crash a lot. The muscle pull was worse

Hope I die peacefully in my sleep like my grandad.
Not screaming like the passengers in his car.
Ya'll need to add ”walk an hour”, “eat a salad”, and “do calisthenics” to your daily routines.
And never stop doing it. One lapse or moment of weakness and bamm.. back to the physio.
Constant vigilance 🙃
Not true at all wtf. If lapse is like a year sure
You're quite right! The body thankfully does have some margin before it all goes downhill. I was exaggerating a tad to emphasize the vigilance aspect.
Although I do have older aunts and uncles who do need this level of high bodily maintenance.
(Not sure on your stance on Mr C.K but this bit lives rent free in my head on this topic Soz, couldn't find a better link)
If by "one lapse" you mean "stop doing it for like a year"...
But yes I did that second part obviously
TBF I've been choking on water since I was a wee lad. I just drink too aggressively. A drinking problem, of sorts.
Drinking too hard is when you accidentally swallow too much at the same time, painfully forcing it down. I fainted once by doing this...
I stumbled a few months back stepping over a rope that was about fifteen centimeters off the ground and cracked a rib or something. I didn't even fall, just kinda leaned forward the wrong way a bit. Pain for weeks.
Something similar happened to my husband! Threw his back out by slipping and not falling on ice 😂
Maybe we should be trying less hard to not hurt ourselves. 😝
Or try harder.
Go full bubble boy.
Born in the 70s. I've sat on my balls twice so far this year. That's never happened before, I used to just laugh at the idea 😓
Kind of a tangent, but when I was younger I used to accidentally kick myself in the balls by sitting cross legged too quickly and hitting with my heel.
Nothing like sneezing so hard you get a crick in your neck for a week. 44.
Ffffffff
Fart while sneezing also hurts. Feels like something ripping.
Sneezing is one of the top ways people throw out their backs.
After having my back go out twice from sneezing, I asked my doctor about it. He told me this life changing tip which so far (6 yrs) has never failed. When you feel a sneeze coming on, pull your shoulder blades back and look directly up, you can sneeze as hard as you want in this position and you will be fine. In my experience just the looking up is usually enough to protect the back, the pulled back shoulder blades is just an added layer of protection.
this thread is giving me an urge to exercise and eat salad
I ate a salad wrong last month, stabbed my self in the soft pallet with a lettuce steam and had a sore throat for 2 weeks.
I once sneezed hard and somehow had my hair caught in my armpit, hurting my neck
Remember all those injuries you brushed off when you were a kid? They're baaaack....
And they're PISSED
If you’ve never sneezed and thrown your back out, count your blessings.
I am currently lying down, not because I prefer the floor, my because I lay down to stretch a bit, and my back has now completely locked up. I'm not joking: I physically cannot get up, and a doctor is on the way. I'm not even 30 yet...
I've had light vertigo for 2 months because I sat up too fast in bed. It's fucking horrible.
I drank water too hard.
Untag me, please.
I sustained a stress fracture of the fifth metatarsal completely at random last year. No trauma, no accidents, nothing. Went on a five-day drive and returned to go to work. A week later my foot started hurting really bad. I kept working on it and eventually saw a doctor. Misdiagnosed as plantar fasciitis, and continued to work on it with insoles. After a while I had to get an air boot. Before long it was x-rayed and turned out to be a stress fracture with no apparent origin.
The six month healing process was absolute fucking garbage and I would never do it again. Having nearly two months off of work was nice enough, but I couldn't do much other than lay around elevating my foot. If I tried to get in my computer the pain in my foot would increase tenfold. Crutches to get around anywhere. Showered by laying spread eagle on the floor of the tub, blasting out my asshole with the shower head. Mornings were excruciating as the blood rushed to the fracture site and caused my foot to swell up big and purple. Genuinely the worst injury I've ever had to heal from. I never thought it would get better. I truly thought this was the new normal. You'd think a small stress fracture would be minor. Still hurts here and there but I'm about seven months out and doing a lot better than before.
Have to assume I'm just getting old, I guess.
Jfc, I'm still dealing with a muscle I pulled turning over in bed. In November of last year.
But I'm very tall. I managed to throw my back out by pushing in an empty dining room chair that even had felt on the bottom of the legs sliding over linoleum. That was last year, luckily no repeats. I don't fear my dining room yet.
Last month my neck didn't work. Pulled something while sleeping.
I've had the drink water too hard thing since forever - take a super big gulp, feels like it's trying to blow your esophagus apart all the way down.
