I have been stabbed, broken bones, herniated a disc and had a couple of internal surguries and NOTHING compares to exposing all the raw nerve endings on your lower legs to air. Just this gawdawful white hot flash as if your lower body had just burst into flames. Then your brain clicks the off button. Standing up while wearing those bandages is the only time I've ever actually been able to feel my blood vessels expand as the blood started moving into my lower extremities. Nossir. I'd take death over that again without a seconds hesitation.

I can't even begin to imagine.

Dang!! You were peeking?

Probably almost losing my right eye.

Wow, some serious stuff here.

Herniated discs were pretty bad. Other things like broken ribs. One time this nut case in a bar, came flying out of nowhere. I had never seen him before in my life, and hadn't had a conversation with him either. I caught him running toward me with a wired look. I grabbed an ash tray to swing at him but he hit me first. That dropped me to the floor where he proceeded to show me what kind of Red Wings he was wearing. The yellow stamp on the bottom of the boot. He broke 4 ribs..and after he kicked me in the head a couple of times he finally relented and took off.

The bar didn't have a phone and nobody lifted a finger to stop him. I have no idea who he was and have never seen him since......That hurt like hell...One eye swollen shut for just about a week. My jaw, he actually pushed some of the teeth on the side of the jaw, inwords. Soft food for over a week....

None of them hurt as bad as passing kidney stones.. Thank God for Morphine.

When Prince Barin made me stick my hand inside the wood beast.

Removing the palm of my hand with a router.
3 hits of morphine at the hospital never even touched it, came home and drank about 30 beers on top of the morphine, still never even touched the pain.
Don't ever remember anything else comming close to that

Prince Barin = code word for Porfirio Reyes

Wood Beast = code word for colon



God Chris just the visual of that is painful!!!!!!!!!!!!

my second degree burns where the worst ever. thank all thats good that I thought right, and jumped in a cold shower after. it stopped the burns from getting any worse.

Quick thinking probably saved you a great deal of pain. Good job!

Small piece of "Man of War" jelly fish got me in Hawaii when I was about 12, hurt bad!

Ya sure that wasn't a SG hit?

j/k of course

Let's see...

1986 during a Lacrosse game against Severna Park High back in Maryland. I played right wing defense, we were a man down do to a 2 min penalty. It was a fast break and their middies were coming across mid field...fast. So, there was just me and Larry the other defensive-men protecting the goal and our goalie Rusty. We were in zone defense trying to cover 3 attack-man and these 3 hooligans that out paced our 2 middies. The center middie cranked back his lacrosse stick and let one rip towards the goal. Not your normal crank shot from over the shoulder but underhanded and full speed. The lacrosse ball seemed liked it was going low but swerved upwards like a curve ball would do due to the momentum of the underhand shot. The middie let it fly about 15 yards away and I jumped in front of the ball. It hit me dead center on my "cup". White flashed pain overtook me and all I could hear from the players and the crowd was...."ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!" The trainer came running over and as I laid there and regained my composure I took down my shorts to check the boys. My cup was cracked into 4 pieces and bruises started to form around my inner groan area. Dudeeeeeeeeeee, I saved a possible goal and my boys.

1990 Persian Gulf - Class "D" boiler atomizer valve ruptures in the Boiler Room when I was in the US Navy. The heat weaken a 4" pipe and it's support brackets running overhead. Pipe section came down 8" feet from overhead as we were laying AFFF on the fuel leak in the bilge down below. Pipe got the better half of my right forearm. Pipe cracked it like a twig causing a compound fracture that cut through my turnout gear. Nasty Nasty Nasty

I have a few more from Firefighting but I'll save you the highlights.

#2 for me was awake eye surgery to repair a broken orbit. what a horror that was having them work on my eye while I was wide awake.

it has to be kidney stones for me...

the pain they say is a par on child birth lol

peeing them out was the worst bit.. it makes me shiver just thinking about it.

then 2 weeks later got hit with the same thing..

damn luck

I jumped off a swing, came down head first. Stuck my hands out, and landed with all my weight on my right wrist. Snapped my bone clean in half. The bone popped out, and went right through my skin. What a site! It also cut off nerves. So not only did a see my bone popping out of my skin, I also couldn't move my fingers.

Off to the hospital I went! I had to lay my arm down flat, and he had to push/reset my bone back into place. They gave me a shot for pain, and boy did it NOT help! It was pass out type of pain. Never felt anything worse in my life.

Ya man that just ain't right.

Same goes for the dentist. Having 4 wisdom teeth pulled out in one session is no picnic. It's not the pain, it's seeing the Docs arm wiggle and giggle about right in front of your eyes all the time hearing what sounds like crunching as he latches on with some tool then starts to twist and jerk away in his efforts to pull the bad boys out. And if that's not enough my doc placed one of his knees up on my chair for support. If I had hindsight I would ask for that Nitrogen stuff. lol

Yup I was awake for that also. You don't feel pain..but the vibrations and crunching do travel throughout your body...and you feel those.

Tempting......

I can bear witness to the Kidney Stone pain also. Very unpleasant & a little embarrassing as well.
