of all the eight or so concussions i've experienced the most hilarious was when i got my nose totally CRUSHED by my best friend's knee whilst playing football
the coach said i was unconscious for only 30 seconds or so but my nose was plastered over 80% of the real estate of my face
in pe classes way back then we all wore white tshirts and shorts and then they stood me up to take me to the nurse and i lost about forty gallons of blood all down the front and they marched me to the infirmary which was right next to the school cafeteria and some girl lost her lunch BIGTIME while i was bleeding so profusely and i was sorta lucky because even tho i had a concussion it wasn't too dang bad unlike the plastic surgeon i saw at the hospital that willieyanker grabbed my nose and said, "yep, it's broken"

i still remember the look on that girl's face when she puked up her lunch

once upon a time at the horse farm i had in kentucky i was boarding an american quarter horse for a friend of mine, well he wasn't really a friend but his wife whoa and he paid me $50 a month and all he wanted was for me to exercise this muscular animal, not his wife, and the horse's name was jack and he was fast for short stretches like a human sprinter but horselike you know and one day i took him out into the field down by when the coal trucks ran and was running him easy easy across the grass and he wanted to run faster so i let him and we was CRUISIN' across the field when we came to the dang ole bar ditch and he just stopped right there in his tracks and i went flying over his head like daredevil steve (remember him?) and i landed on my head and it hurt but i got up and the barn wasn't where i left it and neither was my house but i caught jack the horse and got him in the pen and unsaddled and took his bridle and went back to the house and passed out

the end

When I was about 10 I was bitten by a neighbour’s dog and a friend, who was, apparently a doctor, said that I had rabies and would die in 24hrs. Obviously I didn’t but at the time I remember watching the clock the next day at 23 hrs and 59 seconds. When it struck the 24th hour I breathed. After that incident death has never been in my thoughts. When the time comes, it comes. Hey I just thought. This might have been better introduced in the “At what age” thread in one of the other forums.🤔😉👍

lol
caught in a landslide no escape from reality

i really thought it was gonna be one of the chowderheads that pointed out my flawed reasoning
for a brief moment of insanity i was gonna go with, "two tankerloads of blood" but after my jackalopes talked me down from the ceiling i knew it had to be closer to the truth

i'm glad it was you that called me out

i lost about forty gallons of blood all down the front


Pardon me for getting technical here, but the average human has between 1.5 and 2 gallons of blood in their body. How did you manage to lose 40 gallons of blood?
